Pay-per-mile car insurance in Arizona

If you’re a newcomer to The Grand Canyon State—or you’ve lived here for years—you almost certainly know the law already: Whether you’re commuting to your job in Phoenix or Tucson or taking a weekend road trip to Monument Valley and the Petrified Forest, you need car insurance to drive legally in Arizona.

And there’s a good reason for the requirement: A state-approved Arizona car insurance policy can help ensure that you, your passengers, and other people on the road don’t have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars out-of-pocket in order to recover from an accident.

We’ve got some good news for you, too: If you’re a low-mileage driver (that is, you drive around 10,000 miles per year or less)
you might qualify to save a lot on your car insurance policy with pay-per-mile car insurance from Metromile. Here’s how it works:

With Metromile, you’ll pay a monthly rate that starts at just $29/month. Then, you could pay as little as 6 cents per mile you actually drive. Basically, your rate for car insurance each month will depend on the miles you drive that month—no more overpaying for an insurance policy on the months you barely drive at all.

With Metromile, the less you drive, the more you save. It’s a great system—especially for drivers who often work from home or who have already retired. (In fact, our customers can save up to $947* per year on car insurance.)
