Moving insurance for household goods and personal effects, business goods, livestock, and fresh/chilled/frozen goods in transit either across town or shipped to other parts of NZ is available online 24/7.

Quotes are free and take only a few minutes. Policies issued instantly 24/7 on acceptance by the customer, and documentation emailed directly to the customer following payment by direct credit or credit card.

Vero Insurance NZ underwrites all policies issued by us, and in partnership with loss adjusters GAB Robins, provide the backing for our worldwide claims service guarantee.

The Affiliate knows, or from time to time may become aware of people, businesses or organisations which could benefit from our products and services.

The Affiliate wishes to refer such people, businesses or organisations to us.

We encourage the Affiliate to make such referrals and will reward the Affiliate for referrals that result in a sale of our insurance products.

1. Affiliate to refer Prospects to ezimove.com

The Affiliate will from time to time refer people, businesses or organisations needing insurance to cover goods being shipped to another address, to us. We aim for a win/win outcome, where your prospect genuinely needs insurance and you will have helped them by referring to us.

2. Normal referral methods to be used by the Affiliate

Direct
By connecting to ezimove.com through your own website, you can provide quotes for your customers. If they subsequently chose to proceed, you can easily bring up the quote via the Member's page by logging on, clicking on the appropriate quote, and placing the order on their behalf. Details of how to process quotes and insurance are contained in our "e-manual". We will track all resulting sales.

However, if you invite a prospect to contact us directly to arrange the insurance for them, we will process quotes from the ezimove site, and no commission will be payable to an Affiliate where sales occur.  We will be happy to answer any queries a customer may have and if they then logon to the Affiliate's website, or ask the Affiliate to process the sale, this will generate commission for the Affiliate.

Indirect

The affiliates program is very valuable to us, as referral business is superior to most other forms of customer contact.

We recognise sales when the customer has paid us and we have confirmed that the money is in our bank account. Once the full premium has been received we will pay either yourself or your nominated charity the full affiliate commission.
