Set up or change a direct debit.

Direct debit is the easiest way to pay for insurance. You can set and forget, knowing your insurance premiums are taken care of automatically.

You can log in to the State app or My State to set up or update:
 

  • a direct debit from your bank account for new Car, Home, Contents, Landlord's and Motorcycle policies.
  • a recurring payment from a credit card.

Direct debits can be set up to take payments made fortnightly, monthly, quarterly, or annually.  

Simply log in, select the policy and follow the direct debit payment steps. If you have multiple polices with us, you’ll need to set up a direct debit for each of your policies. 

We currently accept Visa and Mastercard. Please note that American Express and Diners Club are no longer accepted.
