Geico's famous slogan, "Fifteen minutes could save you 15% or more on car insurance," said by its gecko mascot, is now a part of American culture. In 2020, it announced a switch to a new slogan: "GEICO: Real service, real savings."

THE MARTIN AGENCY Atlanta-based hip-hop stars DC Glenn (DC The Brain Supreme) and Steve Gibson (Steve Rolln) of Tag Team co-opted the GEICO catchphrase Scoop There It Is as one of the most recognizable GEICO Commercials 2021 had to offer.

There It Is!" and the insurance company announced a new ice cream called "Scoop! There It Is!" The flavor will be made by New York-based Mikey Likes It Ice Cream.
