The partnership has recently launched and will see the Group offering a wider selection of travel Insurance products with increased flexibility and competitive prices. As a result of the new venture Budget expects to see a considerable increase in volumes for travel insurance, particularly from their customers who already hold car and home insurance policies.

The new travel insurance product will be available via a number of channels. A significant proportion of new policies are expected to be sold on-line and the product has been given increased visibility on the website, http://www.budgetinsurance.com.

The new products will also allow Budget to offer an exciting range of added extras, for example - up to three under 18s are included free per insured adult, winter sports are included as standard in all annual policies and a range of hazardous sports are covered automatically in all policies.

Will Price, Head of Product Development for the Budget Group of Companies said: "Travel insurance is an extremely competitive and growing market. InsureandGo are both specialist and innovative and can help us deliver a range of comprehensive products to meet our customer needs, at a competitive price."

Perry Wilson, director of InsureandGo, said: "We are really delighted to be working with Budget as an affinity partner. We are positive that with our low cost, high value cover now in place, Budget will quickly see rapid growth in this area of their business."
