The term ferry in the policy, does it include ocean liners?
Hi Kevin,
Thanks for getting int ouch! For insurance purposes, a ferry is not an “ocean liner.” It is licensed by the local regulatory authority to carry fare-paying passengers. An ocean liner would most likely be a “cruise” when it comes to the insurance definition, as it is across seas or oceans.
Hope this helps!
Best,
Nikki
Do I have to activate my card for insurance each year or is it a one-off activation?
Hi Padgh,
Thank you for contacting Finder.
Yes, you will only activate your Credit Card once for you to use it. But for the eligibility criteria, you need to meet them for every trip that you will have to activate the Complimentary Travel Insurance from ANZ.
I hope this helps.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to us if you have additional questions.
Cheers,

Can I activate my ANZ Platinum Visa insurance online?
Hi Georgina,
Thank you for getting in touch with Finder.
You do not have to call or process anything online to activate the ANZ credit card complimentary travel insurance. You just need to use your participating ANZ credit card to pay for some of your trip. The total spent needs to be at least AUD$250 and meet other requirements that you’d see under the What are the eligibility requirements? part of the page.
I hope this helps.
Thank you and have a wonderful day!
Cheers,
Jeni
My husband hired a car and paid for it using his frequent flyer platinum Visa card. I am listed as a nominated driver but am I covered by the rental excess insurance if I am driving?
Hi Tali,
Thank you for contacting Finder.
Yes, you are also covered by the Rental excess from the ANZ Complimentary Travel Insurance given that you are eligible for it once you met their requirements.
I hope this helps.
Please do not hesitate to reach out again to us if you have other questions.

Does rental car cover insurance for damage or theft of car rentals in Italy?
Hi Tony,
Thank you for getting in touch with Finder.
The rental vehicle insurance will cover you if your rented vehicle is damaged by accident, storm, fire or theft. Please go through your ANZ insurance booklet and go to page 56 for more info on rental vehicle insurance. Kindly contact their underwriter Allianz if you need further clarification on this matter.
I hope this helps.
Thank you and have a wonderful day!
Cheers,
Jeni
