Car insurance shopping in Quebec has moved massively online since 2020. The form replaces the phone call, the quote arrives in a few hours and the contract can be signed electronically. However, not all sites are created equal : this guide explains how to get a fast and reliable price, without compromising the protection or security of your personal information.
Get a car quote online: how it works
The online process follows 4 standard steps for most Quebec comparators and brokers:
You enter your vehicle and profile data
Make, year, annual mileage, usage, zip code, driving history (years of experience, claims, violations). 2-3 minutes maximum.
The platform matches your profile with one or more insurers
At Assur360, your file is sent to a broker from an AMF-certified partner firm who selects the insurers best positioned for your profile.
You receive several proposals compared
Prices, deductibles, coverages and endorsements side by side. Typically 3 to 5 proposals within 24 business hours.
Electronic signature and effective date
You accept the successful proposal, sign online (SignRequest, DocuSign or equivalent), pay and coverage takes effect — often the same day.
No commitment: what it really means
An online car insurance quote does not create any obligation. You can receive 3 to 5 applications, analyze them, discuss them with a broker, and finally decide to stay with your current insurer — at no cost. The Assur360 service is free for the consumer: partner brokers are paid only by the insurers, via standard commissions, if you choose a policy.

7 precautions to take before subscribing online
1. Check the intermediary’s MFA certificate
Anyone who distributes insurance in Québec must hold a certificate from the Autorité des marchés financiers. The number can be verified free of charge on lautorite.qc.ca. Assur360 puts you in touch with AMF-certified partner firms and brokers.
2. Assess your needs before comparing
It’s not the lowest price that’s the best deal — it’s the lowest price for the right coverage. Think about: vehicle value, bearable deductible, endorsements needed (replacement to new, replacement value, towing, replacement vehicle).
3. Compare at least 3 offers
A single quote says nothing about the market. A minimum of three offers make it possible to locate the right price. A broker compares 5 to 15 insurers simultaneously, which speeds up and makes the exercise more reliable.
4. Check the insurer’s reputation
Premium + speed of settlement = real value. Look: AMF registry, verified Google reviews, reports from the Insurance Bureau of Canada on claims processing times. A cheaper insurer but slow in claims is a bad deal.
5. Read the policy details (not just the price)
Exclusions, limits per claim, different deductibles depending on the type of damage (collision, vandalism, theft), endorsements included or not. The summary of benefits is 2-3 pages long and can be read in 10 minutes — these 10 minutes sometimes avoid compensation refusals.
6. Apply for discounts that apply to your situation
Auto+home bundle (10-20%), low mileage, CAA or APCHQ member, approved alarm, telematics (UBI), retiree discount, student discount with mention. The broker automatically applies the ones to which you are entitled — but mention them if you know them.
7. Secure your personal information
Check HTTPS (padlock in the browser), read the privacy policy (Bill 25 in Quebec), never enter your SIN for a submission (not required). A legitimate site encrypts data in transit and at rest.
💡 The broker’s advice
An online quote is a starting point, not an end point
The instant price is indicative. It becomes contractual after validation of the FADQ file and confirmation of the amendments with the broker. Allow 15-30 minutes of discussion to finalize an online subscription — this is where the real optimization of the contract comes into play.
⚠️ Red flags
Avoid any site that: (1) asks for your credit card before displaying a price; (2) refuses to provide an MFA number; (3) promises a discount conditional on an “activation payment”; and (4) does not have HTTPS. Online insurance fraud exists — basic vigilance rules it out.
Online car quote anywhere in Quebec
The service is available everywhere in Quebec: Montreal, Quebec City, Laval, Longueuil, Gatineau, Sherbrooke, Trois-Rivières, Saguenay, the South Shore, the North Shore and rural areas. Rates vary greatly depending on the postal code — a local broker calibrates the quote according to regional characteristics (theft rate, labour costs, traffic density).
