Quick Q&A

Who needs it?

Anyone who provides financial support needs life insurance. How will they cope without you?

How much does it cost?

Your risk profile and needs are unique, so it depends on the amount you choose, and your age, health and occupation.

Am I too young or too old for it?

To get life cover, South Africans need to be between 18 and 64 – and the sooner you start, the better!

If I’m not South African, do I qualify?

Yes, if you are legally residing and working in SA and over the age of 21, you qualify.

What waiting periods apply to claims?

There is none for accidental death; the policy schedule specifies the period for natural death.
