KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 18 (Bernama) -- AXA Affin General Insurance Berhad (AXA) has announced its strategic partnership with Petronas Dagangan Berhad (Malaysia's leading retailer and marketer of downstream petroleum products) to provide Mesra Card members with exclusive domestic travel protection under AXA Jom Lokal Travel plan.

Launched in November 2021, AXA Jom Lokal Travel plan is the only travel insurance product in the market that is tailored specially for domestic travels, road trips or staycations.

This tie-up will allow Mesra card members to redeem AXA Jom Lokal Travel plan starts from 994 Mesra points under ‘Mesra Rewards’ on Setel’s website/ mobile application. The points can be accumulated with a minimum spend of RM8.00 at any Petronas station nationwide. Upon redemption, Mesra Card members will enjoy great coverages when they travel locally:
  • accidental death & permanent disablement up to RM 50,000 per person

Emmanuel Nivet, Chief Executive Officer of AXA stated that this comprehensive plan will provide Mesra card members with peace of mind by protecting against unforeseen travel emergencies and expenses.

“With the rise in local travels, road trips and staycations, travellers are being more mindful of every possible scenario they could encounter, and this is an avenue to prioritise ‘safe travels’ and plan ahead to safeguard their trips for peace of mind. With this partnership, Mesra card members can stay protected in an easy, unique, and affordable way, simply by redeeming their points anytime and anywhere without having to pay extra,” Emmanuel added.
 
By leveraging on customer’s everyday spending, AXA hopes that this meaningful initiative will drive greater awareness on the importance of local travel insurance and encourage more customers to get themselves covered without incurring any additional cost. This is also in line with AXA’s objective to introduce simpler and more innovative ways to empower more Malaysians with better protection.
