* Insurance Loyalty Rebate eligibility
We're giving eligible long-term members a loyalty rebate on Death, Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD) and Income Protection (IP) cover premiums. How it works:
From 28 September 2024, you’ll be eligible for a rebate on your future insurance premiums if:
- You've held insurance for any period of time
- You first took out the insurance cover 10+ years ago
The rebate works like this:
- 2% of insurance premiums if your cover was first activated 10 – 19 years ago
- 4% of insurance premiums if your cover was first activated 20+ years ago
If you were a Media Super member before merging with Cbus Super on 9 April 2022, we’ll use your original join date to determine eligibility.
