Why did my price go up at renewal? (short answer)

From time to time, it's necessary to modify premiums to maintain the great coverage. 


A few factors that can have an impact on your pet insurance premiums increasing, include: 


- Your pet’s age: Young pets usually cost less to insure because they need less medical care. As pets get older, they need more care, which can make insurance more expensive. 

- Veterinary Costs: Vet care is getting better, but also more expensive. This means higher costs for treatments, which can increase your insurance premium. 

- Industry Changes: The pet insurance industry is always changing due to new regulations and technologies. These changes can affect how much you pay. 

- Inflation: Just like prices going up for things you buy regularly, the costs of vet care also go up over time, which can impact your premium. 


The fact that you made claims under your policy won’t necessarily cause your premium to increase at the next renewal for your policy.
