Our verdict
Grab sells travel cover as a broker, not an insurer, and it suits people in Singapore who want a single trip policy bought inside an app they already use. Premiums start at SGD 3.90 for one-off cover, and monthly payments are not offered, so the whole premium falls at purchase.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Premium from SGD 3.90 sits below the €7.93 travel median, and only 252 brands are ranked on this figure
- Covered through the app ecosystem, and app support runs on email, phone and help centre, so help sits next to the booking
- The legal entity is named: A3 Insurance Broker (S) Pte. Ltd.
- Claims can be raised on phone and help centre, which covers phone and a help centre
Cons
- Cover is limited to travel, with no other lines available in the range
- Grab is a broker, so the policy sits with an underwriter rather than the brand named on the page
Who it suits
- People in Singapore who already hold the app and want travel cover added to a trip
- Travellers buying a single short trip policy rather than an annual or multi trip one
- Anyone comfortable buying cover through a broker rather than directly from the underwriter
Who should look elsewhere
- Good Sam Insurance Agency, which covers auto, home and renters, for anyone who wants lines beyond travel
- Euroasia Insurance, quoted from UZS 60,000 in another currency, for readers shopping outside SG
- bonus.ch, quoted from CHF 0, for readers after a free entry point instead of a low paid premium

Frequently asked questions
What does Grab travel cover cost?+
Premiums start at SGD 3.90 for a policy, which sits below the €7.93 travel median across ranked brands. Grab places 61 on that starting premium. The figure is the entry point for a trip, not an annual price.
Is Grab an insurer or a broker?+
Grab is a broker, and the policy is issued by an underwriter rather than by the brand on the page. The named legal entity is A3 Insurance Broker (S) Pte. Ltd., based in Singapore. Read the policy wording to see which insurer carries the risk.
Can I pay for travel cover monthly?+
Monthly payments: no. The full premium is settled when the policy is bought, which suits travellers buying cover once per trip. Anyone wanting instalments will need a provider that offers a monthly model.
What does Grab travel cover actually insure?+
The cover limit shows overseas medical expenses and accidental death and disablement sums. Grab sells travel only, so there is no home, life or health cover in the same range. Check the policy wording for what each benefit pays out.
How do I make a claim?+
Claims can be raised on phone and help centre, which covers phone and a help centre. App users can also reach the wider service team on email, phone and help centre, adding email to those routes. Have the policy details ready before you call.
Who is Grab travel cover aimed at?+
It is built for people in SG who already use the app and want travel cover added to a single trip. Expats make up 44.8% of the audience across the site, a group that fits a mobile first travel product. Anyone outside SG should look for a local provider.
What is the overall score and where does Grab rank?+
Grab scores 7.5 out of ten overall, with 7.5 for the cost part of the score. 3 alternatives are listed beside it, so a short list of alternatives is already published on the page.
