How We Make Money

When you use our business insurance matching tools, we may earn compensation from the insurance providers you're connected with. This is standard for insurance marketplaces and is how we're able to offer our research, guides, and tools for free.

Our current business insurance partners are:

  • ERGO NEXT
  • The Hartford
  • Tivly

Depending on the partner, we're paid either when you click through to learn more or when you submit your information to get matched. Your match is based on the best fit within our provider network, and we encourage you to look at how our business insurance matching tools work for transparency.

Editorial Independence Disclosure

Compensation from our partners does not influence:

  • The content of our guides, articles, or coverage explainers
  • Our "Best" or "Cheapest" rankings and lists
  • Our star ratings, MoneyGeek Scores, or provider evaluations
  • Any recommendation we make about which coverage or provider fits your situation

Our editorial team researches, scores, and ranks providers independently of our advertising relationships. A provider paying us for clicks or leads has no bearing on whether, or how favorably, they appear in our content.
