| Insurance Business Huddle Insurance, a part of Australian fintech group Open, has partnered with well-known telecommunications and technology company Telstra to provide exclusive offers and rewards to members with Huddle car or home insurance. As part of the partnership, Telstra Plus members can earn up to 90,000 points when they take out Huddle's Comprehensive Car plus Combined Home and Contents insurance before April 30, 2021. The points are enough to redeem rewards such as a new set of speakers, headphones, or a Nokia 2.3 smartphone in the Telstra Plus Rewards Store. “To say we're excited about this partnership is an understatement,” said Open co-founder Jason Wilby. “Huddle and Telstra share a mutual drive to innovate and solve real customer problems. By combining Huddle's revolutionary insurance and Telstra's incredible rewards program, we're enabling customers to get great cover with Huddle and new tech such as Google Nest, wearables, and tablets with Telstra Plus.” Telstra group executive Michael Ackland added: “This partnership is an exciting milestone for Telstra and our 2.5 million customers who have signed up to the Telstra Plus rewards program. Part of our T22 strategy, it's all about offering members fantastic access to exclusive offers and benefits with other leaders in technology, and in the insurance space, Huddle certainly fits that bill.” The points are awarded 30 days after the second policy start date, provided both policies are still active.
