Deductible
The amount you pay out of pocket before your insurance coverage kicks in on a claim.
What is a deductible?
A deductible is the amount you agree to pay out of pocket on an insurance claim before your insurer pays the rest.
For example: if you have a $500 deductible and you file a claim for $2,000 in damage, you pay $500 and the insurer pays the remaining $1,500.
Higher deductibles typically mean lower monthly premiums, and vice versa.
