We’ve got your insurance needs covered

By Ctrl 6 March 2024 3min read

It’s good to stop and reflect on the following questions: what you do, how you do it and why you do it. At Ctrl, we make car and home insurance easy and accessible, so you can take care of life with complete peace of mind. That’s the WHAT and the WHY.

Here’s HOW we do it. 

Easy & Accessible

Ctrl, South Africa’s first independent end-to-end insurance app, makes managing your car and home insurance super easy. After a simple onboarding process and completing the necessary questions in your own time on your own device, you’ll receive real quotes from trusted South African brands within minutes. 

We then help you compare these quotes side by side, like for like. Our proprietary algorithm rates each quote and makes a recommendation based on your specific needs. You are, however, still free to choose the option you prefer. 

Once you accept a quote, you are immediately covered and you become part of the Ctrl family where we, and your insurer, are on standby with any assistance you might need further down the line. We stay with you every step of the way. This is one of the ways we put you in control. 

Advice & Assistance

There is also the important aspect of advice. Although we offer the convenience of a digital solution which has an advice element built into it, you still have the option to speak to a qualified, experienced insurance advisor (a real human). This is where we combine the best of human and tech. No sales calls, paperwork or insurance mumbo-jumbo. Just options and good advice. 

You also have instant access to help in case of an emergency. The emergency button enables you to call the right people when you need to. Whether it be home or roadside assistance, legal advice or ‘take me home’ (depending on your policy). This is crucial for peace of mind.

Trust & Transparency

Trust is a biggie for us. Transparency offers peace of mind and allows you to trust us. The My Cover screen in the app is a convenient summary of all your assets and premiums, so you can see exactly what’s covered and how much you pay. We highlight the fineprint and steer away from insurance jargon so you have full insight into your cover with no nasty surprises waiting in the wings.

In Control

We make car and home insurance easy and accessible by enabling you to effortlessly manage your insurance wherever, and whenever it suits you. You can control your insurance; add or remove assets, view your policy detail and insured assets, get quotes and submit claims at the touch of a button. It’s this accessibility that makes Ctrl so empowering.

There’s enough craziness in this world without you having to worry about what’s going on with your insurance. We help you take care of your insurance, so you can get on with life.
