Wizer’s Easy Auto Insurance costs 54 GEL a month for a car worth up to $10,000, with all risks covered to a 10,000 GEL limit and a 10% deductible.

Car policy types and how to buy one
Aldagi sells three packages, Minimum, Standard and Full, and GPI Holding sells M, L and XL. TBC Insurance starts from road accident cover and lets you add one, two or all three extra risk options. Wizer’s Easy Auto Insurance bundles casco, third party liability and driver and passenger accident cover for one monthly price, while Unison, New Vision Insurance and Autograph Insurance add liability and accident cover to a damage policy on request.
TBC Insurance policies are bought without an office visit, online, through an agent or through B Bot, and the car can be photographed in its app. New Vision Insurance’s paperwork is the vehicle’s technical passport plus an ID card and a driving licence. Green Insurance Georgia’s sales manager calls back with details once you send a request, and Autograph Insurance’s specialists prepare a personal offer after a consultation. Once insured, Green Insurance Georgia clients get a personal manager, and Wizer’s standard auto policy comes with a personal damage manager.
