Online accounts
Go to the sign up Online Services registration page to create an account. Enter your email address and create a password. You’ll have access to your insurance policy information within 48 hours.
Once you’ve signed up, you can log in to manage your insurance, see your policy details, file a claim and sign up for the paper-free option. You can also use your account to let us know about changes, like a new car, a new driver or a change of address.

For security reasons, each Desjardins Insurance online account is registered in one name, with one email address and one date of birth. As a policyholder, you can sign up to create your own online account.
Only policyholders can view their policy information online. You may be insured on a policy without being listed as a policyholder. Contact your Desjardins Agent to make sure that you are a policyholder on the policy.
Every policy has at least one policyholder—that’s the person or people in charge of the policy. If you’re a policyholder, you can make changes to your policy.
If you’re insured on a policy and not a policyholder, you’re not responsible for the policy and you can’t make changes.
In your online account, you’ll only see information for the policies where you are a policyholder.
If you want to make changes to your policy to add or remove a policyholder, speak to your Desjardins Agent.
Business accounts do not have online access at the present time, but there are plans to include them in the future.
You can’t change agents in your online account. Please speak to your Desjardins Agent about transferring your insurance to an agent in your new area.
