Telecel Zimbabwe Rolls Out Affordable Mobile Insurance Service for Subscribers

Telecel-2nd-StreetTelecel Zimbabwe has partnered with Zimnat Lion, a local insurance firm to launch a mobile insurance product for its subscribers. and will allow them to make premium payments on a monthly basis from their mobile phones.

Dubbed Telecare, the service will offer Funeral, Hospital and local and international Travel Cover through their Telecel lines. The service will provide 3 different insurance plans under one service.

According to Head of Marketing, Clever Isaya, “Life today is full of uncertainties and Telecare insurance offers financial cover against unforeseen events. Telecare has the potential to change people’s lives greatly as a lot of Zimbabweans do not have insurance due to high costs of most insurance services in the market.”
