Put The Profit From
Premium Finance Where It Belongs -
In Your Pocket.

Our clients typically earn $30,000 – $40,000 (before taxes) per million dollars in financed premiums they arrange annually – or more. If you are arranging insurance premium financing for your insureds through a traditional premium finance company, you are throwing away money. With COST, you determine your rates and terms for your premium finance company, and all late and cancellation fee income generated is 100% yours. With our per-account service fee structure, there’s almost no fixed expenses. Contact us today to find out just how profitable our program can be for your organization!

Average Amount Financed MonthlyAverage Account Size Net Annual Profit
$100,000$5,000$45,600
$100,000$10,000$39,610
$250,000$5,000$114,512
$250,000$10,000$99,075
$500,000$5,000$228,312
$500,000$10,000$198,712

The above conservative estimates anticipate no capital investment in your company – investing your own funds will increase profits considerably and in some states, capitalization is required. The profit to be generated from our program is dependent on several variables, including the amount financed, average account size, amount of invested capital vs. borrowed money, float, late charges, rates you charge, etc. We can tailor figures specifically for your organization.

"This is one of those deals where when you decide to start it, a year or two later you will say 'We should have done this 20 years ago.' Fortunately for us, we did start ours 20 years ago!"

“I have worked with COST for nearly 25 years and I count this as one of the best business decisions I have ever made. The staff at COST Financial has always been at our side, making this a great profit center for the agency.”

Don't just take our word for it. See what others have to say about us.

The biggest regret our clients have is that they didn’t call us sooner. Not only do COST clients earn significantly more than any commission or rebate program could ever offer, but they also enjoy total control over the premium finance process. You should have the same control over premium financing that have over your existing business – and with COST, you do.
