Toggle Insurance Review 2025

In addition to sharing my experience with Toggle, our team analyzed real-life customer feedback and review patterns to understand what other drivers think. By analyzing 1,000 customer reviews from major platforms like Reddit, Trustpilot and more, we identified common themes in customer satisfaction, complaints, and overall experience. Here’s what we found:

Toggle auto insurance caters to a younger demographic who prefer to make transactions online, rather than speak on the phone in order to buy and manage their auto insurance. Its rates tend to be cheaper-than-average, and it offers a number of customizable add-ons with renters insurance, its primary insurance product.

However, Toggle does not sell non-owner insurance, nor does it offer rideshare coverage or file SR-22s. Additionally, it’s only available in 14 states, disqualifying it for most U.S. residents.

Toggle costs an average of $3,312 per year, 38 percent higher than the national average of $2,399. Additionally, it’s much higher than average when it comes to minimum coverage, with an average annual price of $1,524 compared to $635.

Many factors impact the cost of auto insurance, so your quotes may be lower or higher based on your vehicle, driving history, mailing address, and more. For example, when I got a quote from Toggle using an address in Bakersfield, California, my rate was $3,280 per year, slightly lower than the average.

When I got my quote from Toggle, it automatically applied three discounts: superior driver, good driver, and anti-theft. I know that the anti-theft was due to my car’s anti-theft technology, but I’m not exactly sure what the difference is between a good versus a superior driver. However, I have to assume I got that discount for my clean driving record, with no at-fault accidents or tickets in the past five years (and as a result, no claims).

You can also save with Toggle by being a homeowner, owning a car with an Automatic Emergency Braking system, or bundling your auto and renters policy.

I’m from Pennsylvania, where Toggle does not sell policies, so to get a quote, I put in an address in Bakersfield, California.

This was probably the quickest quote process I’ve ever seen. Toggle automatically picked up my driving history from my name and address, and within seconds I was filling in my vehicle and getting a quote. Once I had the quote, I could adjust limits and add coverages to see how it would affect the price. With Toggle, I could also call a number, although it’s clear that the website directs most people to get quotes online. Still, that’s an option if you don’t want to go through the computer.

However, if you prefer talking to an actual human in person, I would check out Farmers, Toggle’s more traditional parent company, which has local offices throughout the country.

Toggle offers the standard car insurance coverages: bodily injury and property damage liability, uninsured/underinsured motorist, collision, comprehensive, additional equipment, and rental reimbursement/alternative transportation coverage. It also includes roadside assistance with each policy.

So what’s missing? Toggle doesn’t offer non-owner insurance, SR-22s, or rideshare coverage. Non-owner insurance is a good idea if you frequently borrow or rent cars, including carshares like Zipcar. An SR-22 is a form required after certain serious driving offenses, like DUIs, proving that drivers meet state-mandated insurance requirements. Rideshare coverage is essential for drivers who work with companies like Uber or Lyft to cover gaps in their personal auto policies. If you need any of these specialized coverages, you’ll need to explore other insurers that cater to those specific needs.

Note that Toggle is only available in 14 states, as of writing. These are:

• Arizona
• California
• Colorado
• Georgia
• Illinois
• Indiana
• Missouri
• Ohio
• Oregon
• South Carolina
• Tennessee
• Texas
• Virginia
• Wisconsin

Toggle also offers renters insurance — in fact, this is its primary insurance product — and I could have gotten a discount for bundling renters and auto. Some landlords require basic renters insurance, but there are also two higher tiers for more coverage, like an expensive laptop or piece of jewelry. There is also an add-on for pets, because who knows when your dog will damage the carpet.

Renters insurance is much cheaper than auto insurance; I got quoted for as little as $5 a month.

Let’s take the lowest-tier plan, which includes a deductible of up to $500 and a liability limit of $100,000. I could have customized my policy, adding coverage for:

• Up to $10,000 for technology, jewelry and fashion, cameras, art supplies, and other creative tools, active gear and equipment, and collectibles
• Up to $20,000 for furniture and appliances

In general, I think it makes sense to increase your coverage above the minimum. It usually doesn’t add too much to your premiums, and in the event of a worst case scenario, like a fire, the expense of replacing your belongings adds up quickly.

Once I chose the limits I wanted for each category, I had a few add-ons to choose from:

• Identity theft: While not technically renters insurance, identity theft monitoring will let you know if your personal data was leaked.
• Pets: If you have a pet, this coverage would go to any damages they make to your rental home.
• Replacement: Some people may prefer to replace rather than repair items.
• Side hustle: Didn’t think Toggle was targeted at millennials before? You will now. If you’re part of the majority of the country that has a side hustle, you can get insurance for your business expenses like a camera or other equipment.
• Significant other: Add your spouse or partner to your renters insurance, whether you’re married or just live in the same house, for free.
• Temporary living: If you need to stay somewhere else while you’re experiencing a covered loss, this coverage will contribute to your hotel bill.

Toggle has a private passenger complaint index score of 1.92 with the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC), meaning it receives about twice as many complaints as expected for a company of its size. That’s actually on par with some of the major insurance companies, and an improvement over the prior year, when Toggle’s score was closer to 9.

Toggle performed well when it came to its financial outlook, meaning that the company is creditworthy and should be able to reliably pay out claims.

Since Farmers owns Toggle, for other third-party ratings I had to rely on data for Farmers, not Toggle specifically. Farmers scored below average for overall customer satisfaction in every region except Florida (where Toggle does not sell auto policies).

Mixed customer service reviews may be a natural result of a company that operates online primarily, with some over-the-phone service and no local offices. So if human customer service interactions are a priority, I’d say Toggle is probably not for you.

With Toggle, I could file a claim on the website. However, if I couldn’t figure that out, I could also use the chatbot, contact the company through an email form, or call Toggle at (855) 864-1530. There is no app, so that’s not an option.

Toggle is too new to be included in the 2025 CRASH Network report, but Farmers got a C- rating, ranking 78 out of 88 overall and number five of the top 10 largest insurers. However, Farmers performed above average in J.D. Power’s 2024 Claims Satisfaction Study, with a score of 706 out of 1,000 points (the study average was 697). That puts it above competitors like Progressive, Safeco, and GEICO.

So just how long does a claim take with Toggle? The answer depends on its severity. For example, an accident with injuries will take longer to settle than an accident with property damage only. Additionally, it depends on the cooperation of all the involved parties. Once you submit a claim, a claims representative will reach out to you as soon as they can, either by phone or email—your preference. It could take as little as a few days, in the least severe scenarios.

Considering it operates mostly online, strangely Toggle does not have a mobile application. Rather, I handled everything about my policy online, from getting a quote and onwards. The website, while well-designed with a quick quotes process, is lacking any solid information about coverages or discounts, beyond the bare minimum. To find out my options, I actually had to get a quote, a smart business move on Toggle’s part, if not a bit frustrating for the customer.

These are the factors we take into consideration when reviewing insurance companies.

• Coverages and pricing: The company should offer the standard coverages plus add-ons like roadside assistance, gap insurance, and rental car coverage. We compare pricing with other providers, finding an average for full and minimum coverage.
• Customer satisfaction: We analyze ratings from J.D. Power, the Better Business Bureau, and the National Association of Insurance Commissioners to see which companies customers liked the most.
• Claims: Ideally, a company should allow claims submission through its website, app, and phone service, and customers should hear back within a few days. We also take into account the CRASH Network’s Insurer Report Card as well as J.D. Power’s Claims Satisfaction Study.
• Financial strength ratings: Given that creditworthiness affects your claims, we make sure that companies have high ratings with financial rating organizations like Moody’s, Standard and Poor’s, and AM Best.
• Digital tools: Finally, we make sure that a company’s website and mobile application is easy to use and helpful for submitting claims, showing your insurance ID card, changing your coverages, and other factors. Ideally, the app should have ratings of at least three stars in all the major app stores.
