When someone close to you dies, your usapho needs time to grieve in peace – not worry about money.

Why get Family Protect funeral cover?

Up to 2 of your parents

The Family Protect funeral policy also comes with a lot of extras like getting help with paying for groceries for 3 months, a death benefit paid out for 3 months, getting 10% of your premiums back every 6 months and a R250 airtime voucher.
