Most people choose to have at least R350,000 of cover, or about 6 months of income (after tax but before other deductions) if that’s higher. Your cover amount will grow with inflation each year, but you can choose to opt out of this growth...

Critical illness claims will be paid to you, the policyholder. How long that’ll take depends on the nature of the claim, as well as how quickly we’re given the claims documentation...

You can skip a total of 6 premiums during the first 3 years of having an active policy. You'll still be covered, but your cover will be temporarily reduced until you make up the payment. If you skip all 6 premiums, and you don't make up the last payment before your next billing date, your policy will lapse and your cover will fall away. Any claims made during this period will not be paid out.

Cover will only end if you decide to remove the product and stop paying premiums, or if you die.
