Pros and cons
CHECK24
Pros
- One account reaches auto, home and life, so several kinds of cover can be arranged in the same place.
- Monthly payments are the model on offer, monthly, which spreads a policy charge month by month.
- Support runs on chat, email and phone, so a question can go by chat, email, phone or the help centre.
Cons
- comparison site places CHECK24 outside underwriting, so the cover limit, the wording and the payout are set by the insurer you choose.
- The claim route follows the insurer too: CHECK24 Versicherungscenter online claim form, insurer online claim form and post means the form sits with the site's insurance centre, with the insurer, or goes by post.
- Monthly payments are the only model listed, monthly, so nothing annual is shown beside the monthly figure.
HelloSafe (Atlas)
Pros
- Dedicated travel focus through travel for trip led buyers
- Emergency medical limits of Emergency medical expenses EUR 500,000 - 2,500,000 for care cost protection
- Broad eligibility described as All ages, every nationality for varied travellers
Cons
- Entry premiums of €9 sit above TravelSecure premiums of €5 for buyers comparing starting prices
- Broker setup as broker means cover is arranged through partner insurers with intermediated service and claims handling

Questions about each
CHECK24
What does cover cost through CHECK24?+
For private liability cover on monthly payments, the entry premium is €0.69. The model is monthly, so a policy is carried month by month rather than settled in one payment, and the monthly figure is the number to weigh when comparing insurers. The exact premium follows the insurer and the cover you select.
Is CHECK24 an insurer?+
CHECK24 is a comparison site rather than an insurer, and the site is operated by CHECK24 Vergleichsportal GmbH. The policy you take out is underwritten and settled by the insurer you choose from the comparison, which is why the cover limit and the claim route both point to that insurer rather than to the site.
HelloSafe (Atlas)
How much does HelloSafe travel cover start from?+
Entry premiums are listed as €9. The exact amount payable varies with destination, duration, age and selected limits, so travellers should compare quotes on matching trip details and review included benefits before buying cover online with care.
Is HelloSafe an insurer or a broker?+
HelloSafe acts as broker, which means it arranges cover provided by partner insurers rather than carrying insurance risk itself. ORIAS registration 21008038 identifies its French broker registration for buyers checking status and documents.
