  • Publication number: 20210049704
    Abstract: A browser extension for facilitating a user of a mobile device obtaining an insurance rate quote for a vehicle (or other property, real or personal) from an insurance provider, wherein vehicle information identifying the vehicle is provided on a webpage. The browser extension searches the webpage for vehicle information identifying one or more vehicles. The user is prompted to select the vehicle(s) for which the insurance rate quote is desired from a list of the vehicles is found on the webpage. The browser extension passes the vehicle information for the selected vehicle to a program application. The program application obtains user information useful for generating the insurance rate quote. Based upon the vehicle information and the user information, the program application generates and displays for the user the insurance rate quote for the vehicle. Additionally, the user may be similarly offered a loan and/or an extended warranty for the vehicle.
