Can I use my own Buddy ID when I buy more than one Budget Direct Insurance policy?

Absolutely! And you’ll get up to $50* in e-vouchers with your next insurance policy purchase. Just remember to use your Buddy ID! This applies to Car, Motorcycle, and Travel Insurance, but you cannot use your own Buddy ID to purchase a Commercial Vehicle Insurance policy.

Where can I find my Buddy ID?

You can retrieve your Buddy ID by logging into Policy Manager. You must have bought a policy from Budget Direct Insurance before to be assigned a Buddy ID. You can also call our Buddy ID helpline at 6221 2111 for assistance.

How can my friends use my Buddy ID?

Your friends would need to receive a Buddy ID Referral Link from you to buy a Car, Motorcycle, Commercial Vehicle or Travel insurance policy online, or quote your Buddy ID when they speak with us.

How will I know if my referral is successful?

We will notify you via the email address linked to your Buddy ID. The email will be sent to you within 30 days after the start date of the annual policy bought by your friend. This gives your friend time to review their insurance policy and make any changes if required.

If you do not receive our notification email by such date, please call our Customer Care Centre at 6221 2111 for assistance.

Where can I find my e-vouchers?

You will receive an email containing a notification to log in to your Policy Manager, to redeem the e-voucher. Click on the link to accept your e-vouchers before the redemption link’s expiry date shown on Policy Manager. Once you have redeemed your e-voucher, you have up to 12 months to spend it.

More information on accepting your e-voucher here.

What happens to my Buddy ID if I no longer have an existing policy with Budget Direct Insurance?

Your Buddy ID lasts a lifetime! You and your buddies can still use your Buddy ID to buy any future policies and enjoy e-voucher rewards.

Remember to update us when there’s a change to the email address linked to your Buddy ID to ensure you receive our notification emails.

When a Customer successfully refers friends and family (each a “Buddy”) who purchase our Car, Motorcycle, Commercial Vehicle or Travel Insurance policy, the Buddy is eligible to get up to $80 in e-vouchers for any policy bought from Budget Direct Insurance (“Buddy Reward”). The Customer receives $20 in e-vouchers (“Referral Reward”) for any annual policy purchased by the Buddy.
