What Makes Car Insurance “Low Cost"?
Most people think low cost car insurance just means finding the cheapest monthly premium. But true low cost insurance considers the total cost of ownership over time, including:
Upfront Costs
- Down payments and deposits
- Processing and setup fees
- First month premiums
Ongoing Costs
- Monthly premium payments
- Late fees and penalties
- Cancellation and reinstatement fees
- Interest charges on payment plans
Hidden Long-Term Costs
- Credit score damage from missed payments
- Higher rates after policy lapses
- Loss of continuous coverage discounts
- Increased premiums in high-risk categories
The OCHO Difference: We address ALL these cost factors, not just the monthly premium. Our payment flexibility and 0% APR financing make quality coverage accessible without the financial stress that leads to costly mistakes.
How OCHO Makes Car Insurance Truly Low Cost

Instead of monthly payments that may not match your income schedule:
