Multi-policy discount
We will apply a multi-policy discount to the Tower premium payable on your eligible policies if you meet the eligibility criteria set out in these terms and conditions (Terms). This discount is only applicable to the Tower portion of your total premium and does not apply to levies and other charges included in your total premium.
Eligibility criteria
- You hold two or more Tower-branded eligible policies.
- You are a named policyholder on the eligible policies, whether:
- in your own personal capacity, or
- as a sole trader, or
- as a partner in a business partnership, or
- as a trustee of a trust, or
- the policy is in the name of a company of which you are a director.
Policies held by your spouse, partner, children, other relatives, or flatmates, do not qualify you for a multi-policy discount unless you are also an owner of the relevant policy.
- To qualify for a discount the Tower premium for each eligible policy must exceed the minimum premium set by Tower for the relevant policy types. We explain the minimum Tower premium in the multi-policy discount section below.

Multi-policy discount
If you would like to claim a multi-policy discount in respect of policies that are not all in your own name alone or which are held in different variations of your name (i.e. Jone/John or Susana/Sue), please contact us to notify us which policies you would like to claim the discount for. We will link all eligible policies meeting the eligibility criteria with effect from the date that you contact us.
Where the eligibility criteria are met, we apply the following discount to the Tower premium (including qualifying optional benefits) component* only, for each eligible policy:
- One policy: 0%
- Two policies: Up to 10% *^
- Three or more policies: Up to 20% *^
*The multi-policy discount does not apply to aspects of the premium that are collected by Tower, but are not Tower's premium.
Your Certificate of Insurance shows all the charges that make up the total premium as well as whether a multi-policy discount has been applied to your Tower premium.
^Tower has a minimum premium for each policy type. Any policy to which a minimum premium applies will count as an eligible policy for the purposes of calculating the applicable discount for the number of policies held, regardless of its premium, but the discount will be applied:
- only to Tower premiums in the group of eligible policies that are above the minimum premium; and
- only to the extent that it does not reduce the Tower premium for a particular policy below the minimum premium for that type of policy. If the full discount would reduce a premium below the minimum premium for a particular type of policy, the discount will be capped so that the Tower premium payable is equal to the minimum premium for that policy type.
Adjustments to your multi-policy discount
When you buy a new eligible policy and the eligibility criteria are met, the multi-policy discount will be applied to the Tower premium for the new policy from the commencement date of that policy.
Any discount or additional discount to the Tower premiums for your existing eligible policy or policies will commence from the next renewal dates for each applicable policy.
When you change an eligible policy during its term, any new or changed multi-policy discount applicable to the Tower premium for that policy will be effective from when you change the policy.
When you cancel an eligible policy, the discount applied to your remaining eligible policy or policies will be reviewed at the next renewal date for each applicable policy, and the discount applied may reduce, depending on the number of eligible policies you hold.
