Points will not be issued on policy renewals, and if the policy is cancelled within the first 45 days (by you or Virgin Money), you won’t receive the reward.
Why This Offer Is Worth Considering
Travel insurance is one of the easiest travel decisions to put off, until it’s too late. Virgin Money’s policy not only helps protect your trip, but it also rewards you for being smart and prepared.
Final Thoughts: Rewarded for Being Prepared
When it comes to travel insurance, most people think of it as a necessity, not a reward. But Virgin Money flips that idea on its head. With generous cover, simple policy management, and the opportunity to earn Virgin Points, this is one of those travel to-dos you’ll be glad you ticked off early.
So, if you’ve got more than one trip planned in the next 12 months, don’t wait.
Protect your adventures, earn your points, and travel smarter.
Until next week.
