Meerkat’s rise to popularity

Meerkat, established by David O'Brien in 2016, was created to address the lack of savings and limited financial access in South Africa. David, a qualified actuary with extensive experience in product development, was frustrated by these issues and envisioned Meerkat as a solution to "look out" for your financial well-being.

When it comes to protecting your loved ones and your financial future, Meerkat's credit life cover offers comprehensive coverage and peace of mind.

Meerkat can offer you a reliable solution

Meerkat offers credit life cover to protect you and your loved ones from the financial burden of debt repayments during unexpected events. The Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted the lack of job security, emphasising that your primary income is like a table with one supporting leg. If that leg breaks, there’s no support left for the table. In the event of job loss through retrenchment, credit life cover provides a safety net.

Get the peace of mind you deserve

By having retrenchment cover and a reliable salary protection plan, you can have peace of mind knowing that loan insurance will enable you to continue caring for your loved ones until your financial situation improves.

Meerkat credit life cover goes beyond expectations, offering comprehensive coverage not only for retrenchment but also for death, temporary and permanent disability.

Credit insurance is always a worthwhile investment, regardless of perceived career security. Meerkat's credit life cover is extensive, cost-effective, and effortless to obtain.

Meerkat is committed to your financial security

Whether you're taking out a loan, opening a credit account, or financing a vehicle, credit life cover can give you the peace of mind you need to know that you're protected. Meerkat offers a range of credit life insurance options to suit your needs and budget, so you can choose the coverage that works best for you.

How much does Meerkat cover you for?

When you choose their credit life cover, you'll be covered for a set amount of money in the event of death, disability, or retrenchment. The exact amount of coverage you receive will depend on a number of factors, including the size of your loan or credit account, your age, and other personal details. Meerkat's team of experienced professionals can help you determine the right amount of coverage for your needs and circumstances.
