How can I pay for my premiums?
There are a few ways that you can pay for your premiums and the easiest to do so is via online payment. What you only need to do is go to the "MyPolicy" tab somewhere above the Zurich website, log in or sign up, select your current policy, and pay the amount that appeared by clicking on your preferred payment method.
Another way of paying is by using Direct Debit Deduction where you will need to register your current active bank account or credit card as your payment method. Zurich will then deduct your premiums every month automatically. You can also opt for E-Wallets such as GrabPay, Boost, or Touch 'n Go eWallet to pay for your premiums easily.

Anyone can apply for Zurich Prestige Cover up until the age of 55 years. Those that are as young as 14 days old are also eligible to be covered by this plan. However, you should be at least 16 years old to become a policyholder.
