OUTsurance refer a friend brochure
By referring someone to us through our website, app, contact centre or USSD method, you agree to the Terms and Conditions explained below.
These Terms and Conditions will apply to all referrals submitted for Personal or Business OUTsurance, OUTsurance Life, OUTsurance Essential Life and OUTsurance Namibia.
Definitions:
The Referrer is you, the client who has an active policy with us and who wants your friends and family to be quoted by us, and have accepted the Terms and Conditions above, Privacy Policy and the Disclaimer.
The Referee is the person that you referred to OUTsurance who is interested in taking out insurance cover with us and such a person should not already have an active quote i.e. where the person has been quoted with us in the last 30 days. Once you agree to the Terms and Conditions you will be able to refer a certain amount of referrals to us per day and per month. We will notify you once you have reached your daily or monthly referral limit.
Discounted premium
Once you have successfully referred a referral to us, the referee must accept an insurance policy with us. Once we have collected R 1000 in premium from the referee's insurance policy and 15 days have passed since the full R 1000 has been cashed, we will then allocate the R 1000 to your discount balance. Should the referee's premium reject or reverse before the 15-day period, you will not be entitled to the R 1000 discount.
Once the R1 000 is in your discount balance, the discount will be allocated to your subsequent insurance premium collection/s. The discounted premiums are applicable to both monthly and annual policies.
Where reference is made to R1 000 above, it will refer to N$ 1000 for our Namibian clients.
We will do a search to see where you are noted on an insurance policy. The search will be done in the following order:
- Facility holder
- Contact person
- Member
- Regular driver
- Life OUTsured, beneficiary or risk owner
- The discount in your discount balance will be applied to the policy/ies where we first find you noted as per the order provided for above.
The discount applied to the premium on your policy might include discount that is applicable to other people who are covered on your policy and who have submitted successful referrals.
If you are noted as a contact person, member, regular driver, risk owner, Life OUTsured or beneficiary on a policy where the policy holder is a staff member of ours, any discount available in your discount balance will not be allocated to that policy. If we do not trace you within 30 days from date of discount allocation as one of the people noted above on another active policy, which is not a staff policy, you will lose all discount available in your discount balance.
Should your available discount amount be more than your premium which is due to be collected on your policy, the amount of premium to be collected will be R0 and any remaining discount will remain in your discount balance for allocation to the following premium collections on your policy/ies.
Should your discounted premium not be collected on the premium collection date due to insufficient funds or incorrect banking details, the discount will not apply to the resubmission of that premium. The full monthly or annual premium will therefore be resubmitted without any discount allocated to the collection/premium. The discount will however go back to your discount balance to be allocated on subsequent premium collections.
Tax:
The discount allocated to your premium is subject to VAT. The VAT calculation applies to all short term insurance premiums. VAT however will not be calculated on Life insurance premiums as Life insurance premiums are not subject to VAT.
The VAT will be charged once the discount has been allocated to your premium collection.
The VAT calculation applies to all short term insurance premiums.
VAT however will not be calculated on Life insurance premiums as Life insurance premiums are not subject to VAT.
The discounted insurance premium will have no impact on your OUTbonus amount and will therefore not impact on your projected amount.
A Statement of Discount may be provided to you at your request.
Cancellation of policy or risk and the effect on discounted premium:
Should you cancel your policy or a risk on your policy or should you be covered on someone else's policy and the cover is cancelled, the discount that you have in your discount balance will be available for 30 days from date of cancellation. If you do not reinstate your cover or sign up new cover with us within 30 days, you will lose your discount balance.
Refund of premium in respect of cancellation of policy or risk on cover
Should you cancel your policy or a risk from your policy, we will only refund premiums that we have collected per product. Therefore, should we have collected no premium or only a part of the premium for that insurance product after the referral discount was applied, you will only receive a refund in the amount that we collected from you subject to any pro-rata adjustment that is applicable. Any discount amount that needs to be pro-rated, if applicable, will be placed back into the discount balance to be applied in the event that you decide to reinstate cover within the 30 days from the date of cancellation.
General rules:
The FAIS Act states that a person who is not an authorised Financial Services Provider (FSP), accredited or is not a mandated representative of a FSP is not permitted to give advice on financial products or provide any financial intermediary services to any other person.
No referrer is allowed to give advice or intermediary services in respect of any financial service including but not limited to insurance, to prospective policy holders or act as an in-between insurance agent in any way.
Insurance law prohibits inducement and therefore no Referrer may offer a referee an incentive to become a policy holder with us. Therefore a referrer may not bring any prospective policy holder under the impression that he/she may be obliged in any way to take out a policy with us.
You must always act in accordance with the Terms and Conditions as set out above.
We will not be liable for any illegal or unlawful actions or misrepresentations made by the Referrer to the Referee in respect of this service or any OUTsurance product. The referrer is not mandated to act as a representative, agent or authorised to incur any obligations or liabilities on our behalf or to give any warranties, representations or undertakings of any nature on our behalf.
