FAQs

Premium funding enables individuals and businesses to pay insurance premiums in monthly instalments instead of an annual lump sum payment.

It’s a service often offered by insurance brokers, with the assistance of a premium funding company, to provide a more convenient payment method for clients. The premium funding company then charges some interest and fees. Our charges can be viewed here.

Insurance premium funding is simple.

1. An insurance broker engages with an insurance premium funding provider for a client.
2. The funder pays the annual premium to the insurer on behalf of the client.
3. The client pays the funder back in monthly instalments.

In Bexhill’s case, this is all managed through our proprietary premium funding software.

If there are any changes in the insurance policy, the funder adjusts the agreement and the future instalments accordingly.

Most commercial and domestic insurance policies that have a cancellable rebate option can be funded by Bexhill premium funding.

There are many reasons to choose premium funding.

• Flexible repayments that help households and businesses with their cashflow requirements
• An easy alternative to paying a large insurance premium once a year
• The ability to group multiple insurance policies under one premium funding agreement
• The cost of the credit may be tax deductible
