Questions? We got you.

How do I calculate my contents sum insured?

Use a contents insurance calculator for a more comprehensive estimate of the total value of your belongings. To make sure to include everything you own so you aren’t caught short if you were to lose everything. Remember, getting the cheapest contents insurance may not give you the best cover in a total loss event like a flood or earthquake.

How do I find the best insurance for my needs?

Although going for the cheapest contents insurance may be appealing, it's important to weigh up several factors before making a decision. To effectively compare different policies, consider the following points:

  • Policy cover and limits: Insurance policies can vary in what they cover and the level of protection they offer. It’s important to compare limits to ensure you choose the best option for your specific needs.
  • Insurer's Financial Strength: This rating reflects how capable the insurer is of paying out claims. Particularly in regions like New Zealand, where natural disasters can cause significant losses, ensuring your insurer is financially secure is crucial.

What does that mean? Insurance jargon explained.

  • Accidental loss: Unexpected and unintended damage.

  • Claim: A request made to your insurance company to compensate you financially for something covered by your policy.

  • Cover: The protection provided by an insurance policy.

  • Excess: The amount you contribute towards a claim before your insurer pays the rest of your entitlement.

  • Exclusion: Specific conditions or circumstances the policy does not cover.

  • Premium: The amount you pay for the financial protection your insurance policy provides.

  • Sum Insured: The maximum amount your insurer will pay for a covered loss.
