Is your car insurance expiring soon?
Are you looking for cheaper options other than the car insurance provider that you currently have?
Well, in this article, I’ll share with you how I searched for car insurance providers and what I finally got for my car.
Btw, I got my car last year and it came with a free one-year car insurance.
A few days before it expired last month, my sales agent reminded me to renew the car insurance as required by the bank where we have our auto loan with.
I asked for quotations from the in-house car insurance provider of our car dealer and the partner insurance provider of the bank.
Then I checked other options online until I found MoneyMax.com.
MoneyMax is a comparison website for various financial products including loans, credit cards, and car insurance.
It has a wide selection of the top car insurance providers in the Philippines.

Why I purchased my Car Insurance through MoneyMax?
The process of getting a car insurance through MoneyMax was seamless.
The representative who assisted us was really helpful.
After we agreed and confirmed on the chosen car insurance provider, she sent me the list of required documents and I sent it through email.
- OR / CR
- Government issued ID
- Previous Policy
- Deed of Sale or Invoice
Since I chose to pay on an installment basis, I issued Post-dated checks for my payment.
I booked Grab Express to pick up the checks and it was delivered immediately to MoneyMax’s representative.
She processed my car insurance application right away and I received a copy of my Car Insurance Policy within 3 days.
I then emailed the Insurance Officer of the bank where our car is mortgaged with and I informed her that my car insurance has already been renewed and I forwarded her a copy of the policy through email.
UPDATE: June 29, 2018
I renewed my car insurance with Oriental Assurance Corporation through Moneymax again. This time, I only paid ₱9,286 for a 1-year car insurance coverage.

That’s why having a car insurance is essential because it gives you peace of mind and the “safety net” when accidents happen.
Here are 5 reasons why you should get a car insurance:
- Your car insurance can compensate you for an accident caused by someone else.
- Your car insurance can compensate someone else for an accident you caused.

Good day.
Itanong ko lang sana kamusta naman po ung pag-process nila sa insurance claim? Interesado sana ako na mag-renew next month at Oriental Assurance ang napupusuan ko. Since may mga good feedback nga rin ako nabasa.
hi nica, fortunately, hindi pa nman namin nagagamit ung insurance, kaya wala pa kaming personal experience sa claiming. pero based sa mga nabasa kong reviews at sa sinabi na din ng oriental assurance, mabilis nman daw po ang pagprocess nila ng claims. if you are interested to get a car insurance from them, i can refer you to the one who assisted me. 🙂
