Type the amounts you want to test. The result uses those amounts only. It does not fetch a quote, and it does not decide a claim.
How to read this comparison
Comprehensive cover can include damage to your own vehicle as well as liability to other people, on the wording of that policy. Third-party, fire and theft is a narrower set of events. Third-party only is about liability to other people, and it does not replace cover for your own car. Insurers do not all use these names in the same way, so the schedule decides what is included.
An excess can be a fixed rand amount, a percentage, or both, and more than one excess can apply to the same claim. A young driver, an unnamed driver, theft or a windscreen can each add an excess. A lower monthly premium is not proof of a lower excess. This page does not print a rand premium or a rand excess unless the product line already states one.
Comprehensive cover is the policy most financed cars must have. It can pay for damage to your car, theft, and your liability to other people, subject to the excess and the exclusions. Third-party-only cover pays for the harm you cause to other people, not for your own car.
The premium is a price for a contract. The contract is the schedule and the wording. WiT Money does not publish a monthly premium until it is a real, dated example from an insurer, and even then it is not your quote. Your age, address, claims and security change the price.
How the cover works
The schedule
It names the car, the regular driver, the use, the sum insured, the excess and the extras such as car hire. If your son drives the car every day and is not the regular driver, say so. Non-disclosure is how claims are refused.
The excess
The excess is the part you pay. There can be a basic excess and extra excesses for young drivers, named events or a first claim. A low premium with a huge excess is a different product.
Claims
You report the incident, often within a short time, and the insurer chooses repair or payment under the wording. A tracking device, if it was a condition, has to have been fitted and working.
What to check
Cover
Comprehensive, third party, fire and theft, or third party only.
Excess
Every excess that would apply to you, in rand.
Use
Private, business, or e-hailing. E-hailing is often excluded unless you bought it.
Insurer
The underwriter on the schedule, which may not be the brand that sold it.
FSCA
The insurer or FSP, checked before we describe them as authorised.
Risks
- Driving for a purpose the policy excludes.
- An undeclared regular driver.
- Leaving out a modification or a tracker that was a condition.
- Assuming third-party cover will fix your own car.
Claims and complaints
Report a claim to the insurer, scheme or administrator named on your documents, in the way the policy or scheme rules describe. WiT Money does not decide the claim. If you have complained to that organisation and you are still not satisfied, the National Financial Ombud Scheme handles certain financial complaints, and the Council for Medical Schemes handles medical scheme complaints. Take the policy schedule, the rejection letter and the claim documents with you.
How WiT Money compares these products
Products stay in provider name order. A car excess, a funeral benefit, a medical scheme contribution and a pet plan are not sorted against one another. Nothing is ranked as the cheapest. A listed name is not a recommendation, and WiT Money does not sell the policy. Where this site has the provider's logo, it is shown. Otherwise the name is shown without a mark. An FSP number or a scheme registration number is not printed unless the recorded page already states it, and it is not a register check by WiT Money.
Questions readers ask
Is third party enough?
It covers your liability to others, not your car. If the car is financed, the financier will almost certainly want comprehensive cover. If the car is old and paid off, third party can be a considered choice. It will not replace the car.
Why did a comparison site show me a lower price?
Because it used different assumptions. Your quote depends on the risk you actually present. Compare schedules, not banners.
Do you take commission on car insurance?
No referral is active. If one is added later it will be labelled, and it still will not be your quote.
