AAA vs. Geico: Discounts

In terms of discounts, both AAA and Geico offer a number of the standard discounts offered by many car insurance companies. However, Geico features a number of discounts targeted towards military members — such as a 15% premium reduction and reduced rates for deployed military members — that make it the better choice for drivers in the military.

Geico

Multi-vehicle

Affinity discounts (for members of certain groups or clubs)

In addition to the discounts on insurance premiums, AAA members — including those without auto insurance through AAA — also have access to excellent benefits and discounts. This is a benefit that Geico cannot come close to matching, and includes special pricing at various retail stores, restaurants and hotels. In fact, AAA estimates that their members save $1 billion per year by taking advantage of the discounts that accompany their membership.

Geico's customers are more satisfied with their claims than AAA's

When asked how satisfied current customers were with their most recent claim, 64% of Geico's customers reported being extremely satisfied, which is 20 percentage points more than AAA's. Furthermore only 2% report having a negative experience with their most recent Geico claim.

If you are in a car accident, you will likely end up having to file a claim against your auto insurance company to receive compensation for damage to your vehicle. Having an insurer that you feel is working with you to get you back on the road after an accident is one of the most important aspects of choosing an insurer.
