Claims Satisfaction & Customer Experience - 4.5 / 5

SmartFinancial enjoys an A+ Rating with the BBB, despite having only one review on the website. They don't have a presence on TrustPilot. This lack of customer reviews probably points to the fact that SmartFinancial is a marketplace for auto insurers and not an underwriter in and of itself. Customers should be aware that the company will provide their information to their marketing partners, in order for these insurance companies to provide quotes, rather than generate quotes themselves.

I've worked with Smart Financial for awhile. Our rep, Marques, has been very helpful. He is always available by email and quick to return calls. There are alot of lead companies, but the service from Marques is what keeps my staff and I working with this company over their competition.

I am very happy with the service I have received from SmartFinancial. We have closed many deals and are building a pipeline. My rep James Cruz has been awesome with answering calls or returning them fast. I highly recommend this company!
