Noblr is a “usage-based insurance” (UBI) company. It uses telematics technology to track driving habits and determine drivers’ rates, which can change month to month.

You may save with Noblr if you’re a safe driver who doesn’t log a lot of miles each month.

But you’ll have to be an active-duty military, a veteran, or an eligible family member to buy a Noblr policy. USAA, a top financial services and insurance company for the military community, has owned Noblr since 2021. USAA recently began phasing out Noblr policies and offering current Noblr customers the chance to apply for a USAA UBI policy.

Many companies besides Noblr offer UBI programs, so it’s a good idea to compare quotes before you choose a car insurance policy.

How Noblr compares to other insurance companies

Noblr is one of the usage-based insurance companies on the market that offers pay-as-you-drive insurance. Similar insurance companies include Chubb, Root, and Hugo.

Noblr’s customer service, discounts, and availability are pretty similar to its competitors. But Noblr has higher rates than its competitors and doesn’t have a financial strength rating from AM Best. Also, the company only has a few customer reviews to reference during the comparison process.

How Noblr auto insurance works

Noblr offers usage-based insurance through a telematics app to offer drivers customized rates. The app tracks real-time driving behaviors, such as braking and acceleration patterns. It also tracks safe driving habits like not texting and avoiding nighttime driving.

Drivers get a Noblr Driver Score, which unlocks savings based on miles and safety. This pay-as-you-drive car insurance incentivizes safe driving and is a good option for low-mileage drivers.

Noblr car insurance rates consist of a base rate and variable-rate combination. The base rate remains the same, and the variable rate changes based on your driving. This unique approach to insurance coverage can benefit safe drivers who are on the road infrequently and rack up fewer miles on the odometer.

  • The Noblr mobile app is a key part of pay-as-you-drive coverage. After downloading the app from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store, it’ll work with your smartphone to track your driving and give you a score that affects your rates.

    The app will look at your driving habits and miles driven. Additionally, Noblr may provide feedback and the opportunity to earn Noblr Rewards to reduce your rates.

    Drivers must download the app to get Noblr insurance, so you must be comfortable sharing data with the company.

How customers feel about Noblr

Noblr’s online profile is sparse. AM Best doesn’t rate Noblr for financial or credit strength, and the company’s not included in J.D. Power surveys. But you can find an NAIC rating and reviews on the Better Business Bureau website and in the App Store.

Reviewers on the BBB website have given Noblr just 1.62 (out of 5) stars. Its App Store rating is better at 4.3 (out of 5) stars. But most of its App Store reviews are negative.

How Noblr rates compare to competitors

While Noblr’s rates vary from driver to driver and depend heavily on your mileage and driving habits, its average premiums are more expensive than those of its competitors. The company has average liability rates of $107 per month and $221 for full coverage.

The chart below shows how Noblr compares to the other popular telematics and pay-per-mile companies.

Average cost of Noblr auto insurance

Drivers with clean records typically secure the cheapest rates, especially with a telematics company that tracks your driving habits. Drivers with incidents such as a speeding ticket, an at-fault accident, or a DUI on their record experience higher rates. Insurance companies consider high-risk drivers more likely to file a claim and charge higher rates to make up for the possible financial loss.

Similarly, teen drivers see high rates because they’re more likely to engage in risky driving behaviors and have less experience. Senior drivers pay the lowest rates because they have the most experience. Senior drivers who are retired and don’t drive often may also benefit from Noblr because its rates depend in part on how many miles you drive.

The table below illustrates how Noblr’s liability rates compare to the national average liability rates for various driver profiles.

Noblr car insurance cost by state

Auto insurance coverage costs vary by state, driving record, age, credit history, ZIP code, and other personal factors. Driving habits and mileage also affect Noblr’s rates.

Each state has different minimum liability coverage requirements, and your total costs will depend on the type of coverage you purchase.

Noblr car insurance policies are only available in 15 states as of June 2024 and are provided by NOBLR Reciprocal Exchange. Below are the states in which Noblr offers coverage, alongside Noblr’s average monthly liability quotes and state average liability quotes.

Other options for Noblr customers

Noblr’s main offering is pay-as-you-drive car insurance coverage. Currently, the company website has limited information, and it looks like you’ll need to go through Noblr’s parent company USAA if you want other traditional insurance products.

USAA offers homeowners, renters, and condo insurance, which covers any damage to the property, to USAA members. USAA, and as a result Noblr, requires a military membership, so not everyone qualifies.

How to file a claim with Noblr

You can file a claim with Noblr either through its mobile app or by calling 1 (877) 235-6257. Be sure to be ready with your policy number, accident details like date and time, a description of what happened, and information about any other vehicles or drivers involved.
