Fee Calculator Services

Fee Calculator enables insurance companies to identify and include certain title, registration, and license plate fees as a part of the Private Passenger Vehicle (PPV) Valuation Request process based on information provided by the company to CCC®. If calculated, these fees will display in the Market Valuation Report (MVR) and will be listed in the Post Valuation Change Request.

Note: Fee Calculator is only available for companies that have the necessary contract with CCC®.

The information below explains the Fee Calculator information that displays in CCC® Estimating during the PPV Valuation process. For additional information regarding Fee Calculator, please reference the Fee Calculator Reference Guide.

Submit PPV Valuation Request

When submitting a PPV Valuation Request via CCC® Estimating companies that have contracted for Fee Calculator should review the following information:

Contacts Tab

The Vehicle Owner zip code +4 is required for fee calculation.

If the Vehicle Owner’s full address and 5 digit zip code is entered in the Contacts tab, the system will attempt to auto-populate the +4 zip code after the valuation request is submitted on the Total Loss Tab. If the +4 zip code is able to be auto-populated by the system, it will display within the MVR but will not display within the Contacts or Total Loss tab.

Note: The Vehicle Owner zip code +4 is not required for valuation submission. If the Vehicle Owner zip code +4 is not populated, fees will not be calculated for the valuation request.
