Bingle's comprehensive car insurance is comparatively cheap. Our research of 37 providers shows that Bingle is the cheapest provider on average, costing approximately $862.
For a competitively priced premium, Bingle's comprehensive policy is good at covering the basics (e.g. damage to your car and others).
Bingle's product disclosure statement (PDS) is easy to read and understand with limited jargon or vague terminology.
Cons
Bingle's comprehensive policy covers less than its competitors' policies. For example, Budget Direct's comprehensive policy includes a new car replacement If your car is written off in the first 2 years or is under 40,000kms. New car replacement is an optional extra with Bingle.
Bingle is all online. This may not be ideal for those who aren't tech savvy.
Bingle offers cover for market value only. Those who want more control over how much their car is covered for won't be able to do this. For insurers who offer agreed value, see Budget Direct or Youi.
Congratulations, Bingle!
Bingle won the 'Car Insurance - Low Cost' award in the 2024 Product Awards.
Our experts researched 30+ car insurance policies in Australia, analysing 640 different features and over 1,000 quotes. Here's how Bingle stacks up against other popular insurers.
Recently completed a not at fault claim with Bingle, who were awesome to communicate with and efficient in assisting me through the process. Can't recommend more highly, especially for an online provider!

Important information about this website
finder.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stands by our editorial principles
We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labeling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
We make money by featuring products on our site. Compensation received from the providers featured on our site can influence which products we write about as well as where and how products appear on our page, but the order or placement of these products does not influence our assessment or opinions of them, nor is it an endorsement or recommendation for them.
Products marked as 'Top Pick', 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options.
Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment when you click on those buttons or apply for a product. You can learn more about how we make money.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
Please read our website terms of use and privacy policy for more information about our services and our approach to privacy.
We update our data regularly, but information can change between updates. Confirm details with the provider you're interested in before making a decision.
You pay nothing. Finder is free to use. And you pay the same as going direct. No markups, no hidden fees.
