An insurance payout is a sum of money paid out by an insurance company to the policyholder or a third party as compensation for a loss, damage, or injury covered by the insurance policy.

Insurance payouts may be made in a lump sum or in installments over time, depending on the terms of the policy and the nature of the claim.

The amount of the payout is typically determined by the value of the loss or damage, the policy’s coverage limits, and any deductibles or other conditions specified in the policy.

Insurance payouts can help policyholders recover from financial losses due to unexpected events, such as accidents, natural disasters, or theft.
