Flexible payment plans make budgeting a breeze.

Portage Mutual's insurance products are designed to be flexible, enabling you to choose the insurance coverage that meets your individual needs. You can also choose from three payment options that allow you to pay your insurance premiums all at once, quarterly or spread them over several months:

By spreading your insurance premiums over the course of the year, our PCC, PAC and PAB payment plans provide you the flexibility to pay your insurance premiums in a manner that best suits your needs.

We like to give credit where credit is due. With the Portage Credit Card (PCC) plan, your total insurance premium can be charged annually to your Visa or MasterCard account. No processing fee applies to this method of payment.

For easier monthly budgeting, your annual premium can be divided into equal instalments which are charged to your Visa or MasterCard account at the beginning of each month. A 3% processing fee will be charged on monthly credit card accounts.*

Any changes made to your policy after the initial payment will automatically be applied to your credit card. This applies to both annual and monthly PCC plans. You'll have the security of knowing your insurance coverage is up to date with the flexibility of paying on your favorite credit card.
