Along with auto insurance, customers can also access home, business, rental property, boat and motorcycle insurance via Fiesta, as well as income tax preparation services.

Standard and nonstandard coverage options

Fiesta connects drivers with standard and nonstandard auto insurance coverage options. Also known as high-risk policies, nonstandard policies can be an option for drivers finding it hard to get standard insurance because of …

  • A short, non-existent or less-than-perfect driving record
  • Being a first-time driver in the U.S.
  • Lapses or no history of coverage
  • Lack of credit history or low credit scores (in states that allow insurers to consider credit history)  

People who drive specialized vehicles like high-powered sports cars may also be candidates for nonstandard car insurance.
