Pi-xy Co., Ltd. (Yoyogi, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Teppei Ogura) has updated its insurance comparison site, 'Pi-xy Pet Insurance Comparison' (https://pi-xy.co.jp/), to display 'cumulative insurance premiums' for policies maintained from age 0 to 15 years and 12 months.
Background of the Cumulative Premium Feature Most pet insurance policies increase premiums as pets age. Since the rate and timing of these increases vary significantly between companies and products, policies that appear cheap at the time of enrollment may become a significant burden during a pet's senior years. Previously, displaying only the current age's premium made it difficult to grasp future cost burdens. Responding to user feedback requesting comparison of lifetime costs, the site has implemented this new functionality.
Details of the Cumulative Premium Feature While the previous feature only displayed monthly premiums at the time of input, the new update shows the projected cumulative cost from age 0 to 15. Users can also view premium trends by age bracket.
[Displayed Content] - Premiums at age 0, 5, 10, and 15 - Cumulative premiums from age 0 through 15 years and 12 months
This allows users to compare options while visualizing long-term cost burdens from the puppy/kitten stage through to senior years.
Benefits of Cumulative Premium Visualization By understanding future premium changes in advance, users can select insurance from a long-term perspective and avoid mismatches, such as premiums becoming too high after enrollment.
[User Benefits] - Easy understanding of premium increases by age - Advance confirmation of premium burdens during senior years - Ability to compare estimates of lifetime premium payments
'Pi-xy Pet Insurance Comparison' now features 10 major pet insurance companies and has surpassed 10,000 total contracts (as of January 2026). The site continues to support comfortable insurance selection to protect the health of beloved pets.
