MTN launches a newer, more affordable smartphone insurance plan

Finance 10 July 2020

MTN has announced that it has launched three new more affordable insurance products for its customers.

Pricing for these new plans are as follows:

Screen repair cover – From R17 per month

Accident cover – From R21 per month

Theft and loss cover – From R24 per month

“South Africans are facing financial hardship and while this is not a revolutionary offer it does offer our customers the flexibility to choose the cover that best suits their needs at a far more affordable price,” said MTN SA Chief of Mobile Financial Services Felix Kamenga in a statement.

“It is always advisable to insure your device to protect your investment and to get you back up and running as quickly as possible on SA’s best network.”

“These offers are aimed at significantly lowering the cost of insuring devices as customers won’t be obligated to cover for all risks in just one monthly premium,” said Kamenga.

MTN said that these insurance products are available for devices including tablets, laptops, and smartwatches, and can be purchased at an MTN store or online.

Customers who have recently upgraded or purchased a new device can still apply for this insurance if the purchase was within 30 days and the device has not been damaged.
