How to submit an Everyday Pet Insurance claim

To submit a Everyday Pet Insurance claim you have three options:

  1. Claiming through your vet. Your vet may be able to submit your claim on your behalf through GapOnly. This means that rather than paying the full vet invoice upfront and waiting to be reimbursed, you simply pay the amount not covered by your policy. Alternatively, your vet might be able to submit your claim electronically on your behalf.
  2. Make a claim online. You can submit your claim online through Pet Portal. All you need to do is upload a copy of the invoice and consultation notes from the vet.
  3. Make a paper claim. If you prefer, you can also submit a paper claim form by post or call the company on 1300 10 1234.
