You give everything to protect your family – doing whatever it takes to help them realise their dreams and to secure their financial future. They trust you to make the right choices to set them up for success – whether you’re there to guide them, or not.


At OUTsurance Life, we get this. And that’s why we put your family’s needs at the centre of everything we do. We want to be sure that your family will be able to maintain the same standard of living they’ve become accustomed to should you become critically ill or pass away unexpectedly.

‘You always get something OUT’

OUTsurance entered the life insurance market in 2008 by introducing credit life insurance to our existing short-term insurance product portfolio. Two years later, in August 2010, we launched a fully underwritten life insurance product. Fast forward to 2025 – and we’re now standing at a total of more than 1 million life insurance clients.

‘To have one million South Africans trust us with their lives is a huge milestone for us as a company,’ says Danie Matthee, Chief Executive Officer at OUTsurance. ‘We have a responsibility to our clients to honour their legacy: to treat their loved ones with the utmost respect and empathy; and to deliver on our promise by paying out claims quickly and efficiently.’

A simple, straightforward product

We’ve purposely designed the OUTsurance life insurance product to be simple, straightforward and highly tailored to you – our customer. We can help you with a comprehensive life insurance solution made up of a combination of death cover and/or critical illness cover that works best for you.

No medicals or blood tests

Our No Medicals Life Insurance product allows qualifying clients to get up to R5 million death cover with no medicals or blood tests required. One 8-minute phone call is all it takes to put immediate life cover in place. 

Affordable premiums

Thanks to streamlined processes and advanced systems with rich data capabilities, we can price risk accurately – if you’re a low-risk client, you may end up paying significantly less for life insurance than you would elsewhere.  

Awesome client service, when it matters most

When it's time to claim, we'll honour our promise by doing everything we can to support your family with empathy and care.

Highly skilled and experience staff

We’re proud to have some of the best people in the industry – from sales advisors, client care advisors, and claims advisors. Our team also includes highly skilled underwriters, actuarial experts and product owners – a team of people who are dedicated to continuously improving our products and processes to make sure that you always get something out.
