Pros and cons
ERGO Group Deutschland
Pros
- Monthly payments are available, so a policy can start without a large upfront sum.
- A single insurer for auto, home and life cover, so a household can place several risks in the same place.
- Support reaches you on email, chat and phone, so chat sits alongside email and phone.
Cons
- Email is not among its claims channels (online and phone), so a loss has to go in through the other routes listed there.
- The provider writes for its own market of DE, so a quote comes from a single national market.
- The young customer bonus described in Under 36 (13% start bonus for young people) narrows the saving to one age group.
TravelSecure
Pros
- Direct insurer setup for clear accountability on travel policies
- Premiums start at €5, below typical travel premium levels for budget planning
- Claims routes via online and email give digital options for documentation and updates
Cons
- Cover centres on travel only, so households wanting wider protection may look at AXA
- Support runs on phone and help centre only, which limits choice for readers wanting chat or email help
- Monthly payments are not available, so budgeting stays tied to €5 paid upfront

Questions about each
ERGO Group Deutschland
What does ERGO charge as a starting premium?+
The Hausratversicherung Smart home contents policy starts at €3.90 a month. That is below the site median of €8.31, so the entry price sits in the cheaper part of the personal insurance range on this measure, though other lines and higher cover levels cost more.
Can I pay monthly rather than in one payment?+
Yes, monthly payments are available. The home contents policy runs on a monthly model, so the premium is spread over the year instead of being settled at the outset, starting from €3.90. That suits anyone who prefers a predictable monthly amount over a larger one-off cost.
TravelSecure
What does TravelSecure cover?+
TravelSecure focuses on travel cover, so you arrange protection for trips rather than for home, auto or health needs. That narrow focus helps seniors compare trip options clearly. Check policy terms to confirm cancellation, medical and baggage scope before you buy.
How much does TravelSecure cost?+
Premiums start at €5 for trip cancellation style cover, with final cost shaped by trip value, duration and traveller profile. That entry point helps you gauge affordability early. Always compare excess, limits and exclusions alongside headline premium before purchase.
