Top Reasons to Consider Spot:
Spot Pet Insurance Plans vs. Nationwide Pet Insurance Plans: Age Limits
Nationwide does not accept new enrollments of dogs and cats over ten years old for Nationwide Major Medical plans and Feline Select Plans. Also, pets must be a minimum age of one year old to enroll in Whole Pet with Wellness plans.
Spot plans don’t have upper age limits, and pets just need to be eight weeks old to enroll.
Microchip Implantation is Covered in Spot's Base Plans
Microchip implantation is covered in Spot's base plans. Microchips help to increase the chance that you and your pet will be reunited if they ever become lost or stolen. We want to help make sure that your pet is able to come home again.
With a Nationwide plan, microchip implantation is only covered if you add wellness coverage to your plan, which costs an additional fee.
Nationwide plans’ 5 Percent Multi-pet Discount vs. Spot Plan's 10 Percent Multi-pet Discount on All Additional Pets
Do you have multiple pets? If so, you’re going to want to learn more about the difference between the plans provided by Spot and Nationwide.
With Nationwide plans’ multi-pet discount, you get a 5 percent discount on added policies for a second and third pet. When you add your fourth pet with Nationwide plans, you get a 10 percent discount on that policy and any added beyond that.
With Spot's multi-pet discount, all additional pet policies get a 10 percent multi-pet discount. Yes, it’s really that easy to help ensure that all of your family’s pets are protected and cared for.
10-Day Money-Back Guarantee vs. 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee
When you enroll in a Nationwide policy, you have a 10-day window that you can get your money back, should you change your mind.
Spot plans’ money-back guarantee period is 30 days, giving you more time to feel comfortable in your decision. The 30-day money-back guarantee is available if no claims have been covered, but it is not available in NY.
We want you to be happy and confident in your decision to enroll in a plan provided by Spot.

Very Supportive and Fast
Previously I had Many Pets Insurance, and they did not pay me anything and raised my rates. Yoda has fallen pretty seriously ill recently, and Spot has paid our claims fast with no hassle.
So impressed
These past few weeks with Dexter being injured have been so difficult and of course vet bills do not make it any better. So grateful for Spot and making claim submission so easy and fast
Excellent Help During Kitty Cancer Treatment
I have never had to submit claims until this year, when what we thought was swelling from a toenail injury turned out to be a malignant tumor in my kitty’s paw. I was nervous about having to file claims but Spot has made the process pain free and is helping me to make sure that my kitty receives the best treatment so that he can have the best quality of life moving forward. I am grateful for the help!

Greatly Satisfied
I am very satisfied with the service and quick response that I receive. I would highly recommend Spot insurance to all people that have pets.
Very easy claim and refund
I took my kittie to the vet and found out he had asthma. I spent approx 1,300 on everything. Tests, medicine, and the visit itself. I got about 1,080 refunded and that was an absolute blessing. They gave back 90% and subtracted $100 which was my deductible. It was very easy and very quick.

Spot reimbursed quickly which is a big help.
Great First Time Experience
We recently had our first experience filing a claim with Spot Pet Insurance, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Our golden retriever had a partial blockage, and the costs added up quickly—thank goodness we had insurance in place. Spot made the entire process incredibly easy. The claim was handled quickly, and the reimbursement helped relieve a lot of stress during an already difficult situation. We’ve owned many dogs over the years and never had pet insurance before, but this experience completely changed our perspective. We’re so glad we chose Spot and would absolutely recommend it to other pet owners.
