Partner Spotlight: Life Insurance with Zurich
Some parts of looking after your family aren't about saving a few dollars — they're about peace of mind. As a ShopRite member you can access Zurich Ezicover life insurance and income protection through a dedicated ShopRite page, with extras you won't get going direct. Here's how it works.
Who is Zurich?
Zurich is one of the world's largest and longest-running insurers. Ezicover is their straightforward, do-it-yourself range — cover that's designed to be easy to understand, easy to apply for online, and easy to claim. There's no medical exam to get started for most applications, and you can manage everything yourself through Zurich's customer portal.
What you can cover
- Ezicover Life Insurance — pays a lump sum to the people who depend on you if you pass away or become terminally ill, helping cover things like the mortgage, everyday bills and your family's future.
- Ezicover Income Protection — pays a monthly benefit for up to five years if you can't work because of sickness or injury, so the household keeps running while you recover.
You can take out either on its own, or both together.
What ShopRite members get
Going through the ShopRite Ezicover page gives you more than just a quote:
- 5% discount on Ezicover Income Protection when you buy it together with Ezicover Life Insurance
- Loving Life rewards program — lifestyle and entertainment offers from the team behind the Entertainment™ Book, included while you're covered
- A complimentary online Will from Willed (normally $159) once you've held an eligible policy for 12 months — a limited-time offer, conditions apply
- My Zurich portal access to manage your policy any time, on any device
Not sure how much cover you need?
It's a personal decision, and it's worth taking a moment before you buy. A good free starting point is the independent life insurance calculator on MoneySmart (the Australian Government's money guidance site), which helps you think through whether you need cover and roughly how much. If your situation is complex, a licensed financial adviser can help you weigh it up.
Frequently asked questions
How do I get a quote?
Head to the ShopRite Zurich Ezicover page and get an online quote for life insurance, income protection, or both. You can also call Zurich on 1800 394 268.
Is there a member discount?
Yes — you get 5% off Ezicover Income Protection when you take it out together with Ezicover Life Insurance, plus access to the Loving Life rewards program, the complimentary Willed online Will (after 12 months, limited-time offer), and the My Zurich portal.
What's the difference between life insurance and income protection?
Life insurance pays a lump sum to your loved ones if you die or become terminally ill. Income protection pays you a monthly amount while you're unable to work due to illness or injury. Many people hold both — one protects your family, the other protects your income.
Does ShopRite give advice on which cover to choose?
No. ShopRite can only refer you to Zurich (or to a financial planner) and doesn't recommend or advise on these products. Read the PDS and consider your own needs, or speak with a licensed adviser, before deciding.
Do I have to be a member?
This is offered as a ShopRite member benefit through the dedicated Ezicover page. If your organisation participates, joining is free.
