Where the agent is administering a bank account on behalf of the policyholder, the agent needs to complete the form in their own name "on behalf of" the policyholder. Please ensure they include the policyholder name in the "Applicant Name" field and provide their contact details for correspondence.

If the policyholder is paying the instalments themselves, they need to complete the application.

We have a paper form, which is available for use in this situation.

It's also available for customers who require more than one signatory to authorise transactions on the bank account or who want to apply for quarterly or bi-monthly instalments.

Please note these special conditions for quarterly instalments:

1. The option to choose an instalment collection date (preferred payment date) is not available; the first collection will need to be made on the date the policy starts.
2. We cannot accept late applications for quarterly collections. The application must be submitted within 60 days from the start of the policy.

No, we have to check all applications to make sure we meet strict regulatory requirements. However if the application is rejected we’ll send you a copy of the letter that is sent to them. You’ll then need to make sure you collect the full premium from the policy holder as set out in your normal credit terms.

Your underwriting contact at Allianz will be able to help you but any changes made after an instalment agreement has been set up will cause disruption to payments.
