Car insurance coverage and policies

There’s so much to consider when buying car insurance in Canada, with each province requiring a different level of protection. It can be confusing. Allstate agents are standing by to help you create a policy that’s unique to you.

Liability coverage

Auto discounts

Quality car insurance protection can be affordable. It doesn’t have to come at a high cost. Allstate provides affordable car insurance options based on your needs. Whether you want to bundle your home and car insurance (multi-line), insure more than one vehicle (multi-vehicle), or you are just starting out on the road, Allstate may have a discount for you.

Our discounts

Be rewarded with a discount for being you. Allstate provides discounts based on your lifestyle, occupation and age - from student drivers to retirees.

For drivers under 25, insurance can be costly. Allstate provides a Good Student Driver Discount—this means your good grades could save you money. If you attend school over 100 km away from your postal address, you could be eligible for a discount. Newly licensed drivers could also take a recognized driver safety course to lower their premium.

But it’s not just younger drivers who can save money. Drivers over 65 years can enjoy a Retiree discount, or if you have been with Allstate for more than three years, you could take advantage of a Renewal discount.

As a safe driver, you could save up to $100 on your deductible every year you go without making a claim with Allstate’s Disappearing Deductible. Another way experienced drivers could reduce costs with safe driving habits is by signing up with Allstate’s Drivewise app

Discounts for your vehicle

Allstate understands that buying a car is a huge expense. Insuring your car shouldn’t have to be. Purchasing a brand new vehicle could lower your car insurance rate, especially if your car has the latest auto safety features installed. If your car has advanced driver safety features such as Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, a park assist camera for example, you could be eligible for a discount. Additionally, keeping your vehicle safe in off-street parking or equipping it with an anti-theft device could reduce your premiums. To find out how you can save on your car insurance, go to the Allstate’s auto insurance discount page.

FAQ

Your limit is the total amount we'll pay if you make a claim on a covered loss. Your deductible is the portion of the claim you pay. For example, if you have an accident which causes $2,000 in damage to your car and you have a $500 deductible, you will pay the first $500 and we would pay the remaining $1,500.

Your premium will be higher if you have a higher limit and a lower deductible. When choosing the deductible that’s right for you, think about how much you could afford to pay if you were involved in an accident that resulted in damage to your car. If you have a lower deductible, you'll pay less out-of-pocket costs when you make a claim, however you'll pay a higher premium.

Your policy covers most licensed drivers who have permission to drive your car but there are certain exceptions. Speak to your agent for additional details.

If you have added loss of use or transportation replacement endorsement to your policy, we will cover the cost of alternate transportation such as a rental vehicle while your car is being repaired. This endorsement is not automatically included with your policy.
