Pros and cons
HanseMerkur Reiseversicherung AT
Pros
- Premiums start at €1.50, well under the site median of €8.31 and the insurance ranking median of €7.95.
- It is an insurer, not a broker, so insurer means the cover and the claims are handled by the same company.
- One insurer covers travel, pet and gadget, so you can hold travel, pet and gadget policies in the same place.
Cons
- Entry is capped by age, at up to 65 years of age for the overseas health cover, so older travellers may be priced or turned away.
- Cover is limited to the categories listed in travel, pet and gadget, which do not include motor, home or life policies.
- A single competitor keeps its headline entry at €25, far above €1.50, though that figure is a savings product, not a policy.
Porto Seguro
Pros
- One insurer covers auto, home and life in one place
- Monthly payments are available, so premiums can be spread
- Claims run through mobile app, whatsapp and phone, including WhatsApp and a mobile app
Cons
- The card's annual fee of BRL 39 applies alongside a first year free offer only on the first card
- Policy holders on phone insurance must be over a minimum age
Who each suits
HanseMerkur Reiseversicherung AT
Who it suits
- Travellers buying a single-trip or annual policy who want an insurer behind the wording rather than a comparison site.
- Pet owners who want gadget and travel cover from the same insurer.
- Anyone who wants a low entry price and will deal with phone, email and help centre when something goes wrong.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone past the up to 65 years of age entry point for overseas health cover.
- If you need motor, home or life cover, since travel, pet and gadget does not list them.
- If you want to raise a claim only in an app, because online form and phone covers online form and phone.
Porto Seguro
Who it suits
- Households in Brazil who want auto, home, life, health, travel, pet, motorcycle and gadget cover from one insurer
- People who want monthly payments rather than a single annual premium
- Card customers who spend abroad and want points rather than cashback
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone wanting a single-purpose savings account, where Linxea is the more focused option
- People outside Brazil, since the insurer and its bank are Brazilian
- Borrowers who want long fixed terms, as lending tops out at up to 60
