  Sri Lanka’s premier telecommunication service provider, Dialog Axiata Plc, is adding further value to its innovative mobile insurance offering with the introduction of third party motor insurance together with Ceylinco Insurance Plc. Initially, the mobile vehicle insurance was available for motorcycles, with subscribers simply needing to dial #107*15# on their Dialog mobiles and follow a simple set of instructions to activate their third party insurance through Ceylinco Insurance. However, this service is open to all Dialog mobile subscribers and the insurance premiums can be added to users’ monthly mobile bill or deducted from their pre-paid credit. Following registration, customers will then receive a call from Ceylinco Insurance and upon confirmation of their details and PIN number they will receive an insurance card through the post within 48 hours. Ceylinco third party insurance is the only third party insurance that offers compensation in the event a motorcycle is involved in an accident. Ceylinco third party motorcycle insurance pays compensation equivalent to the market value of the motorcycle if such an incident were to occur. The launch of third party insurance cover through mobiles follows the successful introduction of accident and hospitalisation cover through mobile phones, which is popular amongst all Sri Lankans. Mobile insurance provides greater convenience to customers as they can obtain insurance cover and make payments on the go, with the added benefit of safety and security for life and property. Dialog is the only mobile service provider to offer insurance products under its value-added service offering and has tied up with a number of leading service providers to offer a comprehensive suite of insurance services to customers. The pioneer in the mobile insurance category, Dialog is looking to expand its insurance product offering in time to come.
