Our verdict
Alan suits seniors in France who want health cover billed monthly and priced from €55. It undercuts most rivals on cost, but the health mix is narrow, so anyone needing broader cover or a wider age band will look elsewhere.

- Support runs by phone, email and chat through chat, email and phone
- Claims are handled in the mobile app, which suits members comfortable with phones
Cons
- Health is the only insurance type listed under health, so there is no bundled alternative cover
- Entry costs sit well above what most of the market charges, with a 205 place on premium from
- Entry is limited to ages 60 to 75, which excludes younger members
Who it suits
- Seniors within the 60 to 75 age band who want monthly health premiums

- Readers outside France, since Alan's base is FR
Safety of your money

Who runs it
Alan was founded in 2016 and is headquartered in France. The legal entity is ALAN, a societe anonyme a conseil d'administration registered in Paris. Support runs on chat, email and phone, so members can reach the team by phone, email or chat rather than a single channel.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Alan health cover cost?+
Premiums start at €55 for health cover, and monthly payments are available. That sits above the €8.31 typical across the brands we compare, and Alan ranks 205 on premium from, so it is not the cheapest route into cover.
Who regulates Alan in France?+
Alan operates under the ACPR in France, the regulator listed for the brand. The company is an insurer rather than a broker, so the policy is underwritten by ALAN itself rather than placed with another provider.
Can I pay the premium monthly?+
Yes. Monthly payments are supported, and monthly lists monthly as the payment model. That suits members drawing a pension, since the cost can be spread rather than paid as a lump sum.
What is the legal entity behind Alan?+
The registered entity is ALAN, a societe anonyme a conseil d'administration registered in Paris. It is the insurer behind the health cover, not a comparison site or broker.
How do I make a claim?+
Claims are handled in the mobile app, which is the only claims channel listed for Alan. Members who are comfortable with a phone can report and track a claim there without visiting a branch.
How do I contact Alan for help?+
Support runs on chat, email and phone, which covers chat, email and phone. Having a phone line matters for senior members who prefer speaking to someone rather than typing out a query.
Who is Alan designed for?+
Alan is aimed at seniors, and entry is limited to ages 60 to 75. The cover is health only under health, so it is built for members who want healthcare rather than a general insurance bundle.
Can I get other kinds of insurance from Alan?+
Health is the only type listed under health. Members wanting home, life or travel cover alongside health would need to look at other providers for those sections.
