Bupa valuables cover
Protect your most cherished items from fire or theft with Bupa Valuables Insurance.
Updated
If you're anxious about the safety of your expensive new tech gadget purchase, the collection of family jewellery you've inherited, or if you're wanting cover for your entire suite of belongings, Bupa Valuables cover will ensure your valuables are insured from the unfortunate situations of burglary or fire.
Whether you're renting or living in your own home, you can tailor your cover to protect the stuff that matters most. Plus, you can add optional extras to cover you anywhere in Australia and for accidental damage for added peace of mind.
We don't currently have this brand on our panel. But don't fret! You can head to the Bupa website or compare a bunch of other home insurance companies with finder.
What is Bupa Valuables cover?
Instead of insuring everything in your home, Bupa Valuables cover allows you to protect the items that are most precious to you, such as your all-essential mobile phone, the TV, sentimental jewellery and even your golf clubs.

What exclusions do I need to be aware of?
Bupa Valuables Insurance only provides cover for items that you have chose to insure and are listed as your "nominated property", which you choose and list when purchasing the policy. You will also not be covered in the following situations:
- Earthquakes

- Damage caused by riots
- Lightning
- Water or oil leaks, including bursting, leaking or overflowing tanks or pipes

How do I make a claim?
Claims can only be made through the Bupa Valuables Insurance Portal. To make a claim on a stolen item, you will need to provide a police report.
From there, Bupa will either repair or replace the item for you, give you a cash settlement for repairs or a store voucher, or the sum insured to replace or fix the item yourself.
