When Do You Pay Car Insurance? 
That 's a great question ! Your insurance company will offer you a few different options . The most common are to pay monthly , quarterly -LRB- every three months -RRB- , every six months , or yearly . Not every company will offer all of those options , and by far the most common billing method is paying monthly . Your insurance company may also make payment options dependent upon your length of time insured with them , the make and model of your car , and your driving history . I 'd expect to pay monthly with most companies , and be happily surprised if they give you the option to pay less frequently . Thanks for asking !
