Common questions
What is an excess in car insurance?
An excess is the amount you pay out of pocket when making a claim. A higher excess generally means a lower annual premium. Some policies also have age-based excess for younger drivers.
Do no-claims bonuses carry over between insurers?
Most Australian insurers will ask about your claims history, and a clean record typically results in a lower premium. Whether a formal no-claims discount transfers depends on the insurer.
What information do I need to get a car insurance quote?
Generally your vehicle details (make, model, year, registration), your address, your age and driving history, and the level of cover you want. The process typically takes a few minutes.
