There are 2 types of covers that you can sign up for; Single Claim or Multiple Claim

  1. Single claim cover pays a sum of money to the beneficiaries upon the first death of an insured family member within 12 months of the policy start or renewal. The policy then lapses, and a new policy must be purchased to cover the remaining family members.
  2. Multiple claim cover pays a sum of money to the beneficiaries upon the death of insured family members within 12 months of the policy start or renewal, up to a maximum of 3 claims per year.

Here is a table that compares the two types of cover:

Type of cover Number of claims Policy status after claim
Single claim 1 Policy lapses
Multiple claim Up to 3 Policy remains in effect

So which type of cover is right for me?

The type of cover that is right for you will depend on your individual needs and circumstances. If you are looking for a more affordable option, single claim cover may be a good choice. However, if you are concerned about the financial impact of multiple deaths in the family, multiple claim cover may be a better option.
