Avios Insurance adds car cover with Allianz, Ageas and Covéa panel

• Car cover went live on Avios Insurance on 2 November, run by insurance technology firm Open.
• Open says quotes come from a panel of Allianz, Ageas and Covéa.
• Open says home insurance will follow travel and car.

IAG Loyalty has added car insurance to Avios Insurance, letting British Airways Club members in the UK collect Avios on motor policies from 2 November, the company said.

Quotes come from a panel of Allianz, Ageas and Covéa, according to Open, the insurance technology provider that runs the service. IAG Loyalty said cover is comprehensive as standard; the product page says it is available to residents of England, Scotland and Wales.

Until 27 November members collect 20 Avios per £1, up to 10,000 Avios a policy, and 10 Avios per £1 up to 5,000 after that, IAG Loyalty said. Avios Insurance launched with travel insurance earlier this year, and Open said home insurance would follow.

Open said the product went "from plan to launch in under two months" on its platform.
