Stella is a purpose-driven insurance brand that is mission-led, authentically different and passionately pro-women. We are passionate about challenging the status quo, championing equality and building products for a fairer world.
At Stella, we prioritise the needs and lifestyles of women, adapting and tailoring product and experiences with you in mind. We want to empower customers and humanise insurance which is clearly no small challenge.
Beyond insurance, we partner with like-minded people and organisations creating a community to drive actionable change for women.

The world moves forward when we work together, as partners, allies, equals.
No, we are not for women only. We are a female-focused brand with a vision to balance the gender biases that exist for women. In saying that, we insure men and non-binary too and see ourselves as an inclusive community.
We have thousands of customers who are men and non-binary and are proud that our customers are supportive of our position to support and empower women.

Stella Travel insurance protects you from unforeseen financial losses you could incur while travelling within Australia or internationally. The cost of the premium can vary based on factors like your age, the length of trip, and your destination(s).
From minor inconveniences like flight interruptions or damaged suitcases to full-blown crises like needing emergency medical evacuation, Stella travel insurance has your back.
Depending on your policy inclusions you could be reimbursed up to a set amount for the unexpected expenses when your vacation plans take a turn for the worse. We recommend checking the PDS to confirm.
Plus, we also provide 24/7 assistance to help you navigate emergency situations.
With Stella, you can get an instant quote online or over the phone with our friendly team by calling on 1300 633 811, 9am – 5.30pm (Local Sydney Time), Mon – Fri.
Simply answer a few questions about yourself, your age, where you’re headed, and how long you plan to travel for.
You can also customise your coverage, adding in extra benefits and adjusting limits.
In general, travel insurance helps protect you from things that can go wrong when you travel.
If you’re going overseas, it could help with things like getting sick or injured and needing medical care, losing your luggage, having to cancel your trip, or if something happens to your rental car.
If you’re travelling within Australia, it could cover things like your luggage, if you have to cancel your trip, rental car issues, and other unexpected problems.
To choose the most suitable travel insurance cover for you and your family, it’s important to review the PDS to understand the product and coverage available.
While travel insurance is designed to protect you for a range of unforeseen incidents while you are travelling, it’s important to understand what you may not be covered for. We suggest you read the PDS for full details.
The best time to buy travel insurance is immediately after making your first payment or deposit for your adventure – think hotel bookings, flight tickets, or tour packages.
Time is of the essence, but hey, better late than never! Even if you’re running fashionably behind, worry not. You can still buy our policies up until your journey takes off.
You are eligible to buy if:
– You are 18 years of age or older, but not more than 99 years of age.
– The date of your departure is no more than 12 months from the date of purchase.
– You are an Australian resident (only applies if you are travelling internationally)
– You have not commenced your trip.
Robin Assist is Stella’s 24/7 specialist emergency assistance and claims team. You can access our expert support by calling the team on 1300 633 811 within Australia, or +61 2 7202 0824 from overseas.
Lost luggage? Overseas emergency medical help? We’re on it. Multi-lingual experts, travel insurance pros – we’ve got you covered.
We highly value and respect your privacy. Transparency and integrity during the processing of your personal data is very important to us.
We comply with data protection regulations, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation.
Details on how we process your personal data can also be found in our Privacy Policy.
Yes, we do! Simply select ‘Australia’ as your destination as you progress through the quote. Protect yourself from a range of unforeseen events, such as Cancellation or Trip Interruption, Travel Delay, and Rental Vehicle Excess.
Yes, absolutely! We have a flexible approach to make things simple for you when changes need to be made, with most changes being able to be made by you via the Stella Hub.
Date Change? Switch up your travel dates any time before your journey starts.
Policy Cancellation? If you do so within the cooling-off period, which is within 21 days of purchasing your travel insurance and before you have departed, we provide a full refund.
If you need to cancel after the cooling-off period and you satisfy our eligibility conditions, premiums will be refunded pro-rata from the cancellation date.
Refunds are only possible if you haven’t started your trip, haven’t claimed, and aren’t planning to claim. When a policy cancellation has been accepted, we will process your refund within 15 business days.
Absolutely. Trip Cancellation will be covered when unforeseen plans change.
This includes unexpected events like unforeseen illness, medical issues, or even an unexpected passing.
Plus, coverage extends to cancellations or restrictions by the carrier of pre-paid scheduled public transport services, caused by severe weather, natural disasters, strikes, and more. For full details read the PDS.
Regardless of the type of travel emergency—from a natural disaster to terrorist attack, to a serious injury—we can help you. Contact us soon as possible and we’ll guide you every step of the way.
Call us in the time or emergency on 1300 633 811ÂÂ , or email us at help@robinassist.com.
You will need to add your little ones to the policy for your kids to be covered. Don’t worry they are much less expensive to provide cover for than the parents. The other good thing is that the benefits are provided on a per person basis for everyone listed on your policy, giving you more coverage for when the unexpected happens.
If you rent a vehicle during your trip that includes comprehensive car insurance cover, you will need to select the Rental Vehicle Excess optional cover to be covered.
We’ll cover you for the rental vehicle insurance excess or repair costs (whichever is lower) you’re liable for if the rental vehicle is damaged or stolen while in your control during the trip; or the cost of returning your rental vehicle to the nearest depot, including related airport concession charges, if you can’t return the vehicle due to an event covered by this policy.
We won’t cover any claim for an event occurring outside the hire dates nominated on the Certificate of Insurance; or the operation of a rental vehicle in violation of the terms of the rental agreement. For example, driving on unsealed roads.
For general exclusions and special conditions relating to this option, please see the PDS.
In most cases this should be possible, and you can do this via the Stella Hub. If you have any questions, please get in touch with our team to explore extending your policy. We’ll take several factors into account, including whether the original policy has lapsed.
However, in circumstances where your return is delayed due to a covered event, the policy automatically extends at no extra cost until you can get home via the fastest route.
Unlike our international travel insurance policies, the domestic travel insurance policy doesn’t have a specific list of excluded activities. This means that most activities are covered under the cancellation/interruption benefit. However, it’s important to note that the policy does not cover medical expenses.
Yes, absolutely! Non-residents are eligible to purchase the policy.
Travelling with a little extra luggage? Don’t let pregnancy stop you from travelling.
It doesn’t matter how far along you are in your pregnancy; if your doctor has given you the okay to travel, we’ll cover you. That means we’ll pay for cancellation or trip interruption costs due to unexpected serious complications that may happen before or on your holiday. You’ll just need to provide a doctor’s note if you’re past 19 weeks for twins or multiple children or 24 weeks for a single child.
However, certain exclusions apply, including childbirth costs and newborn care. Also, cover depends on factors like the stage of pregnancy and medical history:
Travel assistance can be just about anything you need while travelling (or even before).
It covers a range of services – from lost baggage to travel tips and emergency messages to loved ones. Basically, whatever you need for a smooth journey, we’ve got it covered.

For 24/7 emergency assistance, call us on 1300 633 811 or email us at help@robinassist.com.
We understand medical costs can be a worry. Unfortunately, the policy doesn’t include coverage for medical expenses.
Yes, absolutely! Cancelling your trip due to a medical condition is something the policy covers under the Cancellation/Interruption benefit. You can see the list of coverable events under this benefit in the PDS.
Yes, the policy can be used for van-life trips! It has optional rental vehicle excess cover, which is helpful for van travel.
Yes, you can. The policy will cover your cancellation costs if you need to cancel your Australian domestic cruise for a covered reason. There’s no add-on for this; just select the cancellation cover you need when you purchase the policy. Please note the policy doesn’t include medical coverage, so any medical needs on your cruise would need to be handled separately.
For our Domestic Travel Insurance your excess will be $100, which is a fixed amount and cannot be changed.
If something happens before or during your trip and you want to use your travel insurance, you can lodge a claim with us.
To make your life even easier, we suggest carrying a hard copy of your policy documents during your travels. Storms, power loss, or Wi-Fi hiccups then won’t catch you off guard. You’ll always know the number to dial and the steps to take.
If you’re ready to start your claim, you can start here.
The claim process will involve the following steps –
Once submitted, our claims expert will swiftly evaluate your claim. They’ll assess whether it aligns with your policy terms (including contacting you to request additional information or to clarify any details) and then communicate the outcome to you.
