Pet Insurance and payment options

At CARE, we understand that managing unexpected costs in an emergency can be challenging. That’s why we offer a range of flexible payment and insurance options to support you in providing the best possible care for your pet when they need it most.

We proudly support most major pet insurance providers and offer GapOnly®, a convenient service that allows eligible clients to claim their insurance benefits on the spot. With GapOnly®, you only pay the difference between your pet insurance benefit and the invoice total, making the process quicker and easier during what can often be a stressful time. To learn more about how GapOnly® works and whether your insurer is eligible, visit gaponly.com.au.

For those without insurance or looking for alternative ways to manage costs, we offer several flexible payment options:

  • ZipPay and VetPay for interest-free or tailored finance plans
  • EFTPOS and credit card payments (Visa, Mastercard)

We’re here to help you navigate your payment choices and ensure your pet receives the care they deserve without added financial pressure. If you have any questions or would like assistance exploring your options, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with our team
