We detail four of South Africa’s best insurance providers – all of which are part of Telesure’s portfolio – below.
1st for Women
1st for Women is an insurance provider that caters specifically to women and is particularly well-known for its car insurance product.
It boasts a dedicated fleet of Guardian Angels for 24/7 accident and roadside assistance, and you can also use the 1st for Women app to call a Guardian Angel to wait with you at the side of the road if you feel unsafe.
The 1st for Women app has many other motoring benefits, too, including trip monitoring, an unlimited panic button, and mobile crash detection.
All of these excellent features are available as part of a 1st for Women car insurance plan, which starts from only R216 per month.
