* Save up to 10% on Comprehensive Motor Insurance on your first year’s premium (excluding taxes and government charges) when you quote and buy a new policy online. This discount is not applied on renewal. Eligible drivers can also save with a Safe Driver Discount (SDD), based on the driving history of all drivers named on the policy. If you are eligible for more than one discount, Allianz will apply each of them in a predetermined order. This means the effect of applying any subsequent discount will be reduced. For example, the combined effect of applying two 10% discounts consecutively means you will not see the full benefit of both discounts. Discounts may be subject to rounding and only apply to the extent any minimum premium is not reached. Promotional or other discounts may apply from time to time for customers who apply for insurance via other methods. Discounts do not apply to the premium for optional covers. If you would like more information, please refer to the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) (PDF 375KB)  and Premium, Excess, Discount and Options Guide (PED) (PDF 81KB) for further details. 

^ Premiums payable by instalments may be subject to minor adjustments (upwards or downwards) due to rounding and financial institution transaction fees may apply.

1. Allianz may agree with you to use a repairer (other than the one you selected), or pay you reasonable repair costs. We will act reasonably in doing so.

2. Reduce your premium by listing your drivers. If you choose to reduce your premium by naming drivers on your policy, an unnamed driver will incur a $2,500 excess (this replaces the basic and all other excesses where applicable). Minimum premiums may apply. Any discounts/entitlements may be subject to rounding and only apply to the extent any minimum premium is not reached. If you are eligible for more than one, each of them are applied in a predetermined order to the premium (excluding taxes and government charges) as reduced by any prior applied discounts/entitlements. Discounts may not be applied to the premium for optional covers.
