Auto insurance discount terms: What do they mean?

Every industry has “official” terms — like our discount names — and they can be confusing. 

These descriptions are general and could vary by state. Contact your Grinnell Mutual agent to find out if you qualify!

  • Advance quote: If you receive a complete quote (with score reports included) at least seven days before the coverage start date
  • Anti-theft: If you’ve installed qualifying devices to discourage thieves
  • Distant student: If a student on your policy lives more than 100 miles away and does not have a car with them
  • Driver improvement: If you have taken a qualifying defensive driving course
  • Good student: If a student on your auto policy maintains a B average or better, or is on the Dean’s List or Honor Roll, and is a full-time student younger than 25
  • Homeowner: If you own a home, even if it’s insured with someone else
  • Layup: If you store your land-based recreational vehicle for part of the year (discount amount is based on number of months per year the vehicle is stored)
  • Motorcycle safety course: If you complete a qualifying course
  • Motor home limited use: If drive your motorhome fewer than 5,000 miles in a year
  • Multi-policy: If you have both your home and auto covered with us (Thanks!)

  • Paid in full: If you pay your personal auto and/or farm truck’s annual premium up front

  • Riding association membership: If you belong to a qualifying motorcycle riding association
  • Timely payor: If you pay your premium on time. (Yep, it’s that simple!) Applied automatically when you buy a policy; removed after one late or returned payment on a six-month policy, or after two late or returned payments on a 12-month policy
