Woolworths Financial Services Insurance

Believe it or not you can buy insurance straight off the shelf at Woolworths. If you are already a Woolworths Financial Service customer you qualify to get Balance Protection insurance.

Another requirement is that you must be in good standing. You cannot be behind on your credit card payments, for example, and expect to be granted Woolworths insurance.

Balance Protection insurance at Woolworths covers death, loss of earnings and critical illness. Even if you are disabled temporarily or permanently you will be covered by this kind of insurance.

Woolworths pays out your total outstanding balance on your card if you die, incur permanent disability or have a critical illness. In the event that you are temporarily out of action or you lose your job, Woolworths Financial Services will pay your installments for six months, starting from the day of disablement or when you lose your job.

Woolworths Life Cover
