The exact payment options depend on your insurer and policy. All available plans will be shown when you review your quotes. However, most insurers offer the following schedules:
Monthly – You pay in smaller monthly installments throughout the whole policy term.
Quarterly – You pay four times a year, once every three months.
Semiannual – You pay twice a year, once every six months.
Full payment – You pay the entire amount for your policy term upfront.
Important:
For home insurance, policies typically last one year, so a full payment means paying for the entire annual term upfront.
For auto insurance, policies usually last six months, meaning a full payment covers the entire half-year period.
