About Budget insurance
At Budget Insurance, we know it’s hard to budget. The cost of living goes up and up while your bank balance goes down and down. But just because your budget’s a little tight doesn’t mean you should have to go without cover. Rather switch to an insurer that gives you a range of choices, so you can get the cover you need without breaking the bank.
With insurance options for Car, Home, Buildings, Portable Possessions, Life, and Business – and one of SA’s lowest insurance quotes* – you CAN budget. And, when you take out cover with us, you get a whole bunch of benefits such as accident and home assist, discounts for bundling, and more!
Affordable, ‘cos you can’t afford not to.
Our products
We want to see everyone in South Africa insured so they’re never stuck without cover when something goes wrong. That’s why we have a wide range of insurance types to make sure you get only what you need and don’t waste your budget on things you’d never use.
With our Car Insurance, you can take Comprehensive, Third-party, Fire and Theft, or Third-party Only. And, if our standard Car Insurance options aren’t right for your car, we’ve also got Budget Lite, limited cover, for paid off cars valued under R100k.
You can also get affordable cover for Motorcycle, Caravan, Trailer, Watercraft, Home Contents, Buildings, Portable Possessions, Business, Life, and an array of value-added products.
Plus, if your budget is a little too strapped, you can take out a Personal Loan with us.
