Credit card companies love to spruik the "free" bonuses that come with their cards, especially those cards named after precious metals and jewels: gold, platinum, diamond. Some of these premium cards come with complimentary travel insurance, provided you meet certain criteria.
Credit card travel insurance can be as good, or even better than standalone travel insurance. But you pay for it through the higher annual fee on your card and the high interest rate on your debt. If you can't afford to pay your balance straight away, consider the financial risk. The average credit card holder pays $700 in interest a year if their interest rate is between 15 and 20%.
If you're looking at a premium credit card because of its complimentary travel insurance, make sure that what you're getting is actually the best deal for your circumstances. If it isn't, consider a standalone multi-trip or single trip policy.

I have a gold credit card and are entitled to travel insurance for an overseas trip.Going to Canada and Alaska in June this year: is a 8day cruise included in the insurance? Thanks for your prompt replay. Ursula
Yes, the complimentary travel insurance covers cruising. But if you want to include the benefits provided in the Cruise Pack (which is detailed in the PDS I sent to your email), you will need to upgrade your policy, this is in addition, to cover provided in the Base International Travel Insurance and Activated Policy for cruising. Please contact Allianz Australia Insurance to upgrade.
Providing or obtaining an estimated insurance quote through us does not guarantee you can get the insurance. Acceptance by insurance companies is based on things like occupation, health and lifestyle. By providing you with the ability to apply for a credit card or loan, we are not guaranteeing that your application will be approved. Your application for credit products is subject to the Provider's terms and conditions as well as their application and lending criteria.
Your travel insurance policy should list or describe the types of events it covers. Events that are not listed on, or not described in, the policy are typically not covered. If an event covered by your travel policy occurs, your coverage may include needed medical attention, protection for your luggage, and reimbursement of prepaid expenses when your trip is interrupted or cancelled. Because coverage varies across policies, you will need to read your particular policy.
Standard travel insurance policies cover trip cancellation or interruption. Coverage is afforded for cancellation or interruption for events outside of your control and typically need to be stated expressly in the policy. Examples of events that are commonly covered under trip cancellation/trip interruption policies include: the illness, injury, or death of the traveler, a traveling companion, or a non-traveling family member; a terrorism incident; inclement weather; and a natural disaster. Exclusions may apply so you will need to read your particular policy.
CFAR protection is distinct from travel insurance but may be offered in conjunction with, or as an alternative to, a travel insurance policy. Unlike trip cancellation/trip interruption insurance, a CFAR benefit is not designed to only cover unforeseeable events. As the name implies, a CFAR benefit generally applies to cancellation of a trip for any reason, although certain contracts may contain specific exclusions, such as pandemics or COVID-19. Accordingly, you will need to read the specific terms of the CFAR benefit. 2ff7e9595c
