July 22, 2010

GREENVILLE, SC – July 22, 2010 – In order to meet customer needs how, when and where they want to be served, Allstate (NYSE: ALL) today announced the launch of Allstate® Mobile. This full-featured smartphone application is available immediately in app stores for iPhone and Blackberry users.

Allstate® Mobile brings key, customer-friendly features to a single application, allowing users to pay their bill, view policy information, initiate a claim, or find an agent – all from their mobile device.

Allstate wants to make it easy to do business with us, said Bob Wasserman, Allstate’s vice president of eBusiness. We’re committed to delivering products, services and tools that customers value by extending the protection Allstate offers to new places in new ways. Allstate® Mobile is an important step toward these goals.

The application combines a number of features requested by customers in a manner that mirrors the other ways customers come in contact with Allstate.

Allstate® Mobile features include:

  • Policy information – including policy numbers, coverage dates and agent contact information.
  • Pay your bill – convenient on-the-go account management options
  • Start a claim – begin the reporting process for filing a claim
  • Agent locator – find Allstate agencies nearby
  • Accident toolkit – use to capture relevant information after an accident

We want people to have the same experience whether they use Allstate® Mobile, contact their Allstate agent, call 1-800-ALLSTATE or visit Allstate.com Wasserman said. Allstate® Mobile is another way customers can take care of their insurance needs in the way that’s easiest for them.

Allstate will add new features and functionality for Allstate® Mobile later this summer and early fall. Consumers can learn about all the company’s planned smart phone enhancements by visiting www.allstate.com/mobile.
