Motivating Employee Benefits customers to fully utilise eClaim services

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 12 May 2022 – AXA Hong Kong (“AXA”) announces the launch of its first-in-market “Green Premium Rebate” programme[1] – selected AXA Employee Benefits business clients can now enjoy 1% of premium rebate by fully utilising the eClaim services[2]. Through the premium rebate programme, AXA aims to protect the environment by joining hands with customers to reduce paper consumption via digitalisation.

Emily Li, Chief Employee Benefits and Wellness Officer, said, “AXA has been at the forefront of the fight against climate change for years. As one of the largest Employee Benefits insurers in Hong Kong, over 200 million pieces of paper are involved in our employee benefits outpatient claims every year. Through this premium rebate programme, we hope to motivate our customers to better utilise the eClaim services on the Emma by AXA app. Not only are the services environment-friendly, but they are also convenient, accessible anytime, anywhere, and there is no maximum claim amount limit[3]. We hope to join hands with corporates and their employees to support environmental protection, and create shared value for the community together. This brings to life AXA’s Purpose – Act for human progress by protecting what matters.”
