Our Purpose

We Are the Bridge, Not the Insurer

Millions of South Africans are underinsured or uninsured — not because they don't want cover, but because finding the right product from a trusted provider is complicated, time-consuming, and often confusing.

Cover Now exists to fix that. We built a simple, transparent platform that gathers your requirements and connects you — quickly and securely — with an authorised FSP who can give you the right cover at the right price.

We are not an insurer, broker, or FSP. We do not issue policies or handle claims. Our role is to make the connection — and then step back so you can deal directly with a licensed professional.

We Are Not an Insurer

Cover Now is a lead generation platform — not an FSP, insurer, or policy issuer. We connect you with authorised providers. You always deal directly with a licensed FSP.

Your Data Is Protected

All personal information is handled in compliance with POPIA. We never sell your data to third parties and only share it with FSPs you have consented to connect with.

No Pressure, No Obligation

Getting a quote through Cover Now is completely free and non-binding. You choose whether to proceed with any FSP we connect you with.

Fast & Simple

Our 5-step quote form takes under 3 minutes. Most FSP connections happen within one business day — no paperwork, no branch visits.

Five simple steps from "I need cover" to "I'm covered" — all in under 3 minutes.

We collect your basic personal and contact details, along with cover-specific information. Everything is encrypted and handled under POPIA.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about how Cover Now works, who we are, and how your data is handled.

Is Cover Now an insurance company?

No. Cover Now is a lead generation platform that connects consumers with authorised Financial Services Providers (FSPs). We do not issue, underwrite, or manage insurance policies.

Is there a cost to use Cover Now?

Cover Now is completely free for consumers. We are compensated by FSP partners when a successful connection is made — this never affects the premium you are quoted.

Which FSPs are in your network?

Our network includes leading South African insurers and financial services providers. All partners are FSCA-authorised. The specific FSP matched to you depends on your cover type, location, and profile.

How is my personal information used?

Your information is used solely to match you with an appropriate FSP and is shared only with your explicit consent. We comply fully with POPIA and never sell your data.

What if I am not happy with the FSP I am connected to?

You are under no obligation to proceed with any FSP. If you are unhappy, simply decline their offer. You can request a new quote at any time.

How quickly will an FSP contact me?

Most FSPs in our network aim to contact you within one business day of receiving your lead. Response times may vary depending on the FSP and time of submission.
