Does comparing insurance policies cost money and can it actually lower my premium?

A SureCover Team Answered by

Insurance comparison websites are often free to use, but some may receive a commission from an insurer when you buy a policy. Comparing quotes can help you find a more suitable price, although the cheapest option may have different exclusions, limits or excesses. Your premium is ultimately set by the insurer after considering factors such as your location, coverage needs, claims history and risk details. Check the product disclosure statement and compare cover as well as price before deciding.
