How do I pay my premium?

Payment options

There are several ways you can pay your premium.

Personal Insurance

  1. Direct debit: This is one of the safest and most convenient ways to pay your bills. Payments are made automatically from your bank account, so bills never get lost, forgotten or delayed in the post. Plus, you have a record of the transaction via your bank statement or transaction history.
    To set up a monthly direct debit from your bank account, credit or debit card, call us on 0800 800 800.
    You can choose if your payment comes out on the 10 th or the 25 th of the month (or next business day if weekend or public holiday). If you wish to pay by instalments, a higher premium is charged than when you pay a lump sum annual premium.
  2. Online: Use our payment portal to make a payment online with your credit or debit card.
  3. Internet Banking: Using your online banking services, under bill payment select  Lantern Insurance as the payee and use your client reference number in the reference field.
  4. Over the phone: Simply call us on 0800 800 800 with your credit or debit card.
