Life Lump Sum Cover

The life you’d planned for them can continue

What is it?

Life Lump Sum cover from Bidvest Life is insurance that pays a lump sum to your chosen beneficiaries when you pass away.

How does it work?

Your Life Lump Sum cover will pay out to your selected beneficiaries when you pass away. At the time of taking out cover, you can decide who the proceeds of the policy will go to and what percentage of the payout each of them should receive.

Who can get cover?

Everyone with dependents should have Life cover.

Why you need it

This cover is typically used to pay off your debt in the case of a death. Other once-off expenses may include executors’ fees, estate duty, transfer costs, capital gains tax, etc. In some cases, it can be used to provide dependants with a legacy.
