By winning major partnerships with category leaders such as Bupa, Telstra, Polestar and ahm, we've proven this model in Australia and New Zealand.

But the best is yet to come - we plan on doubling growth again while expanding to theUK. We also believe in using business as a force for good - Open is Australasia's only certified B Corp insurance company and as a partner of 1% for the Planet, we donate at least 1% of our revenue every year to charity.
