Absa Credit Life Protection is an insurance policy that protects a person’s credit if they become permanently or temporarily disabled, critically ill, lose their job, or die. The plan is available to anyone who has taken out a loan and is at least 18 years old.
Should an insured occurrence happen, the plan will pay the credit in full. The plan requires a monthly premium, which varies depending on factors such as credit limit, age, and other underwriting factors.
Personal loans, student loans, credit cards, revolving loan facility, overdraft facility, vehicle, and asset finance can all be covered by Absa Credit Life Protection.
The plan aids estate planning by preventing assets from being liquidated to cover debts owed by the deceased, among other things.
