What you need to know:
- ANZ credit cards with complimentary international travel insurance offer comprehensive cover for up to 3 or 6 consecutive months when you travel overseas.
- You'll get cover when you meet the requirements before travelling, noting cover is usually only available to those aged under 81.
- Your spouse and dependants travelling with you can also get cover, but there are some requirements and exclusions.

I have paid for overseas accommodation via Paypal that is linked to my ANZ Black Frequent Flyer card am I eligible / covered for ANZ Travel Insurance?
Hi Ronald,
You can check and get written confirmation of eligibility for cover by calling Allianz on 1300 135 271. As far as the terms and conditions go, there is no specific mention of PayPal payments in the ANZ Platinum and Black Complimentary Insurance booklet (pdf effective 27 April 2022). But if you charged at least $250 of overseas accommodation to the card and it’s showing on the account, it’s possible you’ll be covered but checking with Allianz will provide clarification on this. Hope that helps.
does my black rewards card cover my domestic travel insurance for all types of ambulance flights if i have an accident or get sick in desert regions whilst on an organised tour? I will have paid for my tour using my rewards visa card.
Hi John,
The complimentary domestic travel insurance offered on ANZ platinum and black credit cards is only available if you have paid for your return domestic flight with your eligible ANZ credit card before you leave. Or, if you have a return domestic flight and have paid for at least $250 domestic travel costs before you leave (e.g. an eligible tour).
There is some cover available for additional expenses related to injury or sickness, including travel and accommodation expenses in specific situations. The insurance policy booklet has full details of this cover (here is the pdf version effective 27 April 2022, ANZ should provide any updated versions to cardholders). For specific questions, you could also contact Allianz on 1300 135 271 (Mon-Fri between 8am-7pm AEST; Sat 8am-5pm AEST). Or email ANZTravelTeam@allianz-assistance.com.au. I hope that helps.
I have an ANZ Platinum card in my name, is my husband covered if he is driving the hire car?
Hi Bianca,
Thanks for getting in touch and I hope you are well.
Typically, in this case, the primary cardholder is the one covered under a rental car cover. As your inquiry, is very specific, we would suggest contacting Allianz to consult about this.
Hope this helps and feel free to reach out to us again for further assistance.
Best,

my wife has a supplementary anz credit card that is off my platimum card .
She has paid 870 for hotel accommodation and 800 for air fares .
Does this entitle us to complimentary travel insurance with anz as we are about to fly to bali this week.
Hi Mark,
Thanks for your comment and I hope you are doing well.
As it says on the page, “to activate your complimentary travel insurance, you will need to use your participating ANZ credit card to pay for at least AUD$250 (inclusive of taxes and other charges) of your prepaid travel costs.” Which includes hotel and airfare.There are also a number of other requirements you need to meet to use this cover. Allianz has outlined the following key conditions:
Residency status. You should be a permanent Australian citizen or resident or hold a visa that allows you to live and work in Australia issued under the Migration Act 1958 (Cth).
Ticket. You must have a valid return overseas travel ticket before leaving Australia.
Age. You must be 80 years of age or under on the day you activated the insurance policy.
Dependents. A spouse and/or a child who is traveling with the cardholder on the trip for at least 50% of the period of cover is also eligible for the travel insurance.
Given this, you are entitled to complimentary travel insurance from ANZ.
Hope this helps and have a safe trip!
Cheers,
Nikki
Hi Vince,
Thanks for your comment and I hope you are doing well.
You are able to obtain your policy number and travel insurance documentation by calling Allianz. They are the underwriter of the ANZ credit card’s travel insurance policy. Have a great cruise!
