African Bank Services
African bank’s funeral policy is designed to help you and your loved ones through a difficult time by not only providing the financial support needed to cover the funeral but also by providing additional support and benefits.
The funeral policy will cover you and your loved ones for natural and unnatural death and payout a set lump sum. This lump sum (the over amount) will determine how much your premiums will be. You can add your spouse, children, and any extended family members to your policy which will lower the costs and give you more peace of mind. Payouts can be used for any and all funeral costs and expenses including transportation of remains, coffins, burial plots, catering, and more.
Cover of up to R100,000
One of the great things about the funeral plan from African Bank is that you can get a customized plan to suit your needs and budget. They offer cover from R5,000 to a maximum of R100,000 which means you’ll get just the right cover amount regardless of your budget.
Special benefits for children
Children who are mentally ill or permanently disabled will receive life-long cover for the child rate so long as they were added onto the plan before the age of 25. In addition, full-time students can also get child rates up to the age of 25.
Who can get cover
As the main policyholder you must be over the age of 18 but under the age of 65 to apply for funeral cover. All people who are added to a policy must have a South African ID book.

The 4-month waiting period
While most insurers require that a 6-month waiting period elapses before policyholders and family members are covered, African Bank only requires a 4-month period to pass before you and your loved ones will have full cover.
Accidental death benefit
The accidental death benefit provides double the normal payout in the event that the life assured death was as a result of an accident. There is no waiting period for the accidental death benefit to become active.
Reading through your policy schedule
It’s important to review your policy schedule to ensure that you’re aware of what the funeral policy does and does not cover, how much you’re covered for, and all the added benefits that are available.
Exclusions to be aware of
African Bank specifically excludes death as a result of self-inflicted injuries or illnesses or suicide within the first 12 months of policy inception.
The 30 day grace period
You are required to pay all premiums in order for cover to remain active but you get the benefit of a 30-day grace period within which you will still be covered provided that the payment is made within the 30 days.
Credit life insurance
In addition to their funeral insurance product, they also offer credit life insurance which is a product that pays your debts completely in the event of death and covers your installments if you’re retrenched.
