Deals and discounts for members
On top of the familiar benefits of trade union membership, Nautilus has negotiated a range of deals and discounts on the services and products that members use most often.
Many discounts are available in all countries where the Union has members, while others apply to a specific national branch.
To find out more about each discount described here, or to access the direct link to the dedicated Nautilus Plus website for members, please log into My Nautilus.
UK Branch discounts
Nautilus Plus
The Nautilus Plus (member log in only) discounts package is based in the UK, and some benefits are also available to all members of the Union, whatever their home country. It offers discounts on a wide range of health, leisure and financial services – all negotiated with the seafarer's lifestyle in mind. The package includes a mortgage broker service, house insurance and life insurance tailored for members.
Personal, home and family legal services
Nautilus International offers members and their families a range of legal advice and assistance on non-employment matters. UK-based members and their close relatives are entitled to a range of discounted or even free legal services. These personal, home and family legal services (member log in only) include accident claims, disease claims, clinical negligence claims, family law, housing advice, conveyancy, personal insolvency, will-making and power of attorney.
Seatax
Seatax (member log in only) offers UK members sailing under a foreign flag agreement a 10% reduction on their enrolment fee and a 5% reduction on fee re-enrolment.
CrewFO
Crew Family Office (CrewFO) – one of the Union's strategic partners in the large yacht sector – can offer Nautilus UK members with discounts on help to complete UK tax returns. CrewFO Preferred Plus membership is on offer, giving members access to other advice as well as the UK tax return service. This discount is available to all UK members, not just yacht crew.
Training
Nautilus has secured a 10% discount for members undertaking any training courses with the Maritime Skills Academy (MSA) in Dover. Members will need their Union membership number handy when registering for a course. Members can also get discounts on business services under Nautilus Plus such as IT training, CV writing and interview coaching.
Netherlands branch discounts
Members of the Nautilus Netherlands branch can use their Nautilus membership card to make use of a special benefits programme from the FNV union federation.
This entitles you to exclusive benefits and discounts on products and services such as holidays, insurance, and home energy bills. In addition, there are one-off special offers with different companies offered every two months by the FNV scheme.
