Frequently Asked Questions
What information should I provide to get an auto insurance quote/make a purchase?
You’re required to provide the following to get a quote:

What determines my auto insurance rate?
We consider many factors when determining your auto insurance rate, such as
- How many years of experience you have as a licensed driver
- How you use your vehicle—whether for pleasure, commute or business
- Driving violations (convictions) and past claims
- Where you live
- Information about your vehicle including the make, model and model-year
The rates that we propose and use to calculate your premiums are filed with and approved by the regulators.
Can I choose my auto insurance coverage?
By law, you’re required to have certain minimum coverages. In addition to this, there are optional coverages that you can choose to extend protection against perceived risks. For example, add-ons such as the Accident Rating Waiver and Conviction Protector will give you an extra layer of protection against rate increase due to an at-fault claim or conviction.
You can choose from additional coverage options that you get after completing the online auto quote. Alternatively, you can opt for just the minimum required insurance as well; we encourage you to call an Aviva Direct insurance agent to get your preferred coverage.
How long is my quote valid for?
Your quote is valid for 30 days from the date you quote with us, provided that none of the information you gave us changes.
How can I save on auto insurance?
A few ways you could save* on auto insurance:
- As a first step, get a quote online—it’s free. Also, the coverage options that you get (for your listed vehicles) after completing the online auto quote save you time searching for the right insurance.
- You could claim your reward for maintaining a good driving record with the Conviction Free Discount!
- You could save with our Graduated Licensing Discount—applicable for the first year when you move from G1 to G2 or G2 to G.
- Have a driver training certificate that you can show-off? Make the most of it: a certificate from a ministry-approved driving school earns you credit in terms of your driving record, which may help lower your auto insurance premiums.

I am using my vehicle for ridesharing. Do I qualify for auto insurance?
Your personal auto insurance will not cover you if you’re using your vehicle to carry paying passengers or for a ridesharing service like Uber/Lyft. You will need an add-on like Aviva Direct’s Coverage for Ridesharing. FootnoteCall us to add this endorsement to your policy.
