Our verdict

Wide protection with little to no exclusions, plus one of the easiest quote tools we’ve tested

If you’re looking to manage your car insurance online while getting wide coverage, Waffle might be the right fit for you ― once its car insurance policy rolls out. We’re impressed with its intuitive app and website — you simply create an account, tap the insurance policies you need and answer basic questions one by one. You can get multiple policies in minutes.

Waffle also helps you understand your policy, explaining your coverage in everyday language. You’ll boost the value of its service if you bundle policies, saving hours on filling out multiple insurance forms. Since the founders aren’t fans of exclusions or fine print, rest assured that you have wide protection for whatever you’re insuring with the company.

However, you can’t buy Waffle’s policies in every state, and you’ll need to use its website if you own an Android. For now, the app is only available in the Apple store.

And even though Waffle is technically a broker, it will only sell car insurance through its partner, Clearcover. If you’re curious about companies that Waffle doesn’t partner with, you’ll want to compare more car insurance companies on your own.

Pros

  • Quotes multiple policies at once
  • Wide coverage with few exclusions
  • User-friendly quote tool with basic questions
  • Explains your policy in plain language
  • Live chat in the app

Cons

  • Policies not available in every state
  • Needs time for customer ratings
  • App not for Android yet
  • No phone support

Bottom line: Let its intuitive app or website walk you through buying one or more policies step by step. But its car insurance policy isn’t available as of April 2022.

What car insurance coverage can I get through Waffle?

Waffle hasn’t released its car insurance policy yet, but you can expect to see at least these types of coverage.

  • Bodily injury liability. Protects you if you injure other drivers or passengers and helps pay legal expenses if they take you to court.
  • Property damage liability. Pays to repair or replace other people’s property or belongings, like the other driver’s car if you cause the damage.
  • Collision. Covers your own car’s repairs, or for another car when you’re responsible for an accident.
  • Comprehensive. Kicks in for nearly any type of damage that’s not related to hitting another car, such as storm damage, vandalism or theft.
  • Uninsured or underinsured motorist. Comes into play when another driver hits your car or injures you but doesn’t have enough insurance to pay for all your expenses.
  • Personal injury protection. Helps you or your passengers pay for medical bills if you’re injured in an accident.
