As Botswana Life Insurance Limited (Botswana Life) celebrates its 50-year legacy of financial security and trust, the company has introduced two groundbreaking insurance solutions tailored to the evolving needs of Batswana families: Poelo Whole of Life โAge Related Escalations and EduCare.
Both products were officially launched as part of Botswana Lifeโs commitment to future-fit life insuranceโaddressing the demands of modern consumers who seek greater certainty, flexibility, and value in an uncertain world.
Protection that Grows with You
Poelo Whole of Life โ Age Related Escalations is designed for individuals looking to protect
themselves and their loved ones with a policy that evolves with life.
The product allows policyholders to access up to P100 million in life cover, with escalating benefits linked to the age of the policyholder.
With low initial premiums, a 120% premium payback after 15 years, and no waiting period, the product offers peace of mind alongside long-term value. โThis is not just life insuranceโitโs a life solution,โ said Neo Bogatsu, Executive Director Retail at Botswana Life.
โWith Poelo Whole of Life โ Age Related Escalations, weโre giving customers a product that adapts as their responsibilities grow. Whether itโs starting a family, advancing in a career, or planning for legacy, this product grows with you, in the sense that when you are younger your pay a lower premium but as you mature and your income increases, your premiums too can increase.โ
Optional cover enhancements also include spouse life cover, disability, and funeral benefitsโ making the product highly customisable to each policyholderโs needs.
EduCare: Built for Your Childโs Future In parallel, EduCare is a family-focused policy that ensures childrenโs education needs are covered, regardless of lifeโs uncertainties.
With cover of up to P10 million, the plan include monthly premiums from as low as P200, and key benefits such as:
– 30% premium cashback if no claims are made,
– Cover for death and permanent disability,
– Emergency Medical Evacuation through partners such as Thuso 992 and EA 991.
โThis product is designed with children in mindโbut it speaks to every parentโs deepest desire: to give their child a secure future, no matter what,โ added Bogatsu.
โWith EduCare, Botswana Life is investing in the next generation through protection that prioritises education and the need for parents to leave a meaningful legacy for their children.โ
