A No-Claim Discount (‘NCD’) is an entitlement given to you if no claim has been made under your policy for a year or more with the current/existing insurer. It reduces the premium you have to pay for the following year. This is your insurer's way of recognising and rewarding you for having been a careful driver. There is a standard followed by all insurers in setting the NCD, depending on your type of vehicle (private, commercial or motorcycle) and the period of insurance with no claim. The following table shows how the NCD is set by all insurers across the industry. Private Car Period of insurance with no claim Discount on renewal 1 year 10% 2 years 20% 3 years 30% 4 years 40% 5 years or longer 50% Motorcycle/Commercial Vehicle Period of insurance with no claim Discount on renewal 1 year 10% 2 years 15% 3 years or longer 20%

Here's how you can determine the effective date based on each situation:For New FDW:The policy's effective date should be the date your FDW arrives in Singapore. This ensures that insurance coverage begins when the FDW starts her employment duties upon arrival in the country.For Transferred FDW:The policy's effective date should be the day you wish to apply for the issuance of her work permit at MOM. This ensures that insurance coverage is in place when the FDW's work permit is processed and approved for transfer to your employment.For Renewal FDW:The policy's effective date should be one day after the current work permit's expiry date. This ensures that insurance coverage seamlessly continues without any gaps when renewing the FDW's work permit for continued employment.
The coverage period for our Enhanced MaidAssure is 14 months or 26 months with the additional 2 months included as mandated by the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) in case the FDW overstays in Singapore after her work permit expires.
We accept payment via Visa/Master Retail Debit or Credit Card online.

The Family-NCD will not be affected as it follows the policy's claim experience. However, his past accident history will be taken into consideration when the Family NCD member get a new quote from us.
In the event that he utilise his earned Family-NCD to buy a new policy with us, he can still remain in the Family NCD policy as a named driver but he will not earn another Family-NCD. The Family-NCD can only be used once per policy per named driver.
The policy that experiences the accident claim will have the entire group of Family NCD members' (named drivers) Family-NCD reduced according to the GIA NCD framework (https://gia.org.sg/). We believe that promoting safe driving is a family affair. However, the other policy with us will not be affected, all earned Family-NCDs in that policy will remain intact.
