We believe you should know how our business is paid and how that may affect what you see on this website. This disclosure is provided in line with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidance on advertising and endorsements.
In short: Bristol West Authorized Retailer is an independent insurance agency authorized to sell Bristol West® insurance products. We are paid by insurance carriers when a policy is sold. You never pay us a fee.
Our relationship with Bristol West
We are authorized to sell Bristol West insurance products and to use the Bristol West name and logo with permission. We are not Bristol West Insurance Group, and this is not its official corporate website. Bristol West® is a registered trademark of Bristol West Insurance Group.
How we are paid
- Insurance carriers pay us a commission when a policy is sold through our agency. Commissions may differ from one carrier or product to another.
- This commission does not increase your premium. Carrier rates are generally filed with state regulators, so you pay the same rate whether you buy through us or directly.
- We may also receive bonuses or other compensation from carriers based on the volume or performance of policies we place.
How this affects our recommendations
Our agents aim to recommend coverage that fits your needs and budget. Because carriers pay us, we may present products from carriers we work with more often than others. We do not represent every insurance company in the market, so other options may be available to you.
Prices and offers
Prices on this website are sample estimates, not offers of insurance. Actual rates depend on your personal details and the carrier's underwriting, and not everyone will qualify for the lowest rates shown.
