Safety of your money

Gigasure is a broker rather than an insurer, so it places cover with insurers on your behalf. It is authorised and regulated in the UK by the Financial Conduct Authority, reference 1005421. That means the firm works to the regulator's rules on how insurance is distributed, rather than carrying the risk on its own balance sheet.

Frequently asked questions

What does Gigasure cover?+

Gigasure writes travel and van insurance, so its insurance types are travel and van. The medical expenses limit for trips abroad is high, running from Core up to Max. Anything outside those lines, such as home or pet cover, needs another provider.

How much does Gigasure cost?+

Entry premiums start at £36.35 on car hire excess cover. That is well above the cheapest entry prices on the site, and Gigasure's cost part of the overall score is 5. The trade off is a larger cover limit rather than a minimal premium.

Is Gigasure regulated?+

Yes. Gigasure is authorised and regulated in the UK by the Financial Conduct Authority, reference 1005421. As a broker, it is regulated on how it distributes insurance rather than as the insurer that carries the risk.

What is the car hire excess cover?+

The car hire excess cover starts at £0 to £10,000 on a single trip basis. It is aimed at travellers who would otherwise be left paying a large excess on a rental car abroad. Premiums on this cover start at £36.35.

Who can buy travel cover from Gigasure?+

The age range for travel is 18-75 single trip, 18-70 annual multi-trip, with a slightly wider band for annual multi trip policies. The product is also marketed to seniors through seniors, so older travellers are a target group rather than an exception.

How do I make a claim?+

Travel claims are handled through app and website. The app and the website carry the claim route, so a trip claim can be started digitally. If you would rather talk it through, the wider support team also answers on email, chat and phone.

Is Gigasure an insurer or a broker?+

Gigasure is a broker, as recorded in its provider type. That means the policy contract runs with the insurer it places you with, while Gigasure handles the recommendation and the ongoing relationship. It is an intermediary, not a risk carrier.

How does Gigasure compare on value?+

On the site's ranking of premium from, Gigasure sits at position 201 out of 251 brands, so the entry price is far from the cheapest. The overall score is 5, which points to cover quality rather than headline cost.
