Definitions:

Commission: This is a payment earned by AA Ireland when it sells an insurance policy on behalf of an insurance underwriter. Commission payments are based on a percentage of the insurance premium. For example, if the total insurance premium paid by a customer is €500 and AA Ireland’s commission is 5%, the AA Ireland receives €25 in commission for the sale of that policy. The commission rates earned by AA Ireland are set out in the accompanying tables below.

Additional Commission: Where this field is populated with a percentage, it means that AA is party to an agreement with an insurance underwriter whereby a percentage of the total premium the underwriter receives from AA Ireland sales is payable back to AA as a commission.

Fees/Charges: In addition to earning commission AA Ireland may also apply Fees/Charges for its services. The fees/charges applied by AA Ireland are set out in the accompanying tables below.

Profit Share: Where this field is populated as ‘Yes’ in the accompanying tables, it means that AA Ireland is a party to a profit-share arrangement with a product provider and AA Ireland will earn additional payment from the insurer if agreed profit targets are achieved. Note: Any business arranged with these product providers on a customer’s behalf will be placed with the product provider because that product provider is at the time of placement, the most suitable to meet the customer’s requirements, taking all the customer’s relevant information, demands and needs into account.

Marketing Costs: Where this field is populated with a monetary amount in the accompanying tables, it means that AA Ireland is a party to an arrangement whereby AA Ireland receives payment for this amount from the insurer towards marketing/advertising expenditure.

Direct Debit Service Charge: This fee applies if you choose to pay your premium by monthly instalments. The date and the amount of each instalment payment will be set out in your policy documents on the ‘Schedule of Payments’ page.

Commission Ranges: AA Ireland may discount its fees and commissions, at its discretion, to help provide customers with the best available price. If you would like to check whether any discounts or special offers apply to your insurance quotation, we recommend contacting us via our webchat or WhatsApp messaging services. One of our agents will be happy to provide you with the relevant information and advise you of any discounts or offers that may be available at that time.
