WHY IT MATTERS?
An emergency surgery can cost more than a car.
One unexpected accident or illness can lead to a R20,000-R50,000 vet bill. Pet insurance turns that into a manageable monthly premium — and means you never have to choose between your pet and your finances.
Accident & Emergency Cover
Comprehensive cover for emergency vet visits, stabilisation, and urgent treatment so you can say yes to care without flinching at the cost.
Third-Party Liability
Liability cover protects your finances when your pet’s behaviour becomes someone else’s problem.
Illness & Chronic Care
Get cover that handles the once-off scares and the ongoing prescriptions, follow-ups, and specialist consults.
Compare & Save with Trusted Partners
Competitive quotes from multiple insurers in minutes. We only work with insurers who pay legitimate claims fairly and quickly.
Direct Vet Pay
Many providers settle directly with participating vets — so you don’t have to pay upfront and wait for reimbursement.
Routine Care & Wellness
Multi-Pet Discount
Households with 2+ pets get meaningful discounts when all pets are on the same policy.
Surgery, Hospitalisation & Diagnostics
Emergency surgery, overnight stays, post-op care, plus the scans, blood work, and diagnostics that come before them. Make sure your policy covers the full picture.

South Africans love insure-now
“Quick and easy. I needed a letter of good standing and liability proof for a site visit by Monday; these guys got me sorted in minutes.”
Timothy M.
“I finally found a policy that understands the difference between a general contractor and a specialized electrician. The ‘Tender Assist’ feature helped me land my first municipal contract.”
Darren V
“No fluff, just the facts. I liked that I could compare the actual benefits like surgery and routine care side-by-side without being pressured into a specific plan.”
Donnie V
“I didn’t realize I could get 15% off by putting both my cats on one plan. The process was seamless, and the insurer called me within 10 minutes to finalize the details.”
Sizwe M
“I was overwhelmed trying to look at five different websites. This tool let me see the price difference between basic accident and full cover for my two fur babies in seconds.”
Leanne G
“The process was seamless. I filled in the form, and a qualified consultant called me within 10 minutes to explain how I could save by moving my three vans onto a single fleet plan.”
Lebron C.
“I didn’t realize my insurance could help me with debt collection. Using the ‘Biz Assist’ feature through the partner I found here has been a game-changer for my small courier company.”
Sibu K.
“I was new to e-hailing and didn’t know which insurance was ‘real’ and which was a scam. This platform made it so simple to see my options in one place.”
Mbali S. (Suzuki S-Presso):
“The best thing about using a comparison platform is that they know exactly what Uber and Bolt need. I got my quotes, picked the best one, and had my insurance certificate in my inbox… approved the same day.”
Thabo M. (Suzuki Ertiga)
“I had a small accident with a passenger in the car. My personal insurance rejected the claim because I was ‘working.’ … I used Insure-Now to find a proper commercial policy. Now I have the right papers for Uber and I know my claims will actually get paid.”
Malcom N. (Toyota Quest)
“I was with one of the ‘big’ insurers on a private plan. Not only was I not covered for Bolt, but I was paying way too much. I used Insure-Now, and within minutes I had three quotes. I picked the cheapest one… That’s R520 extra I take home every month now.”
Kabelo M. (VW Polo Driver)
“I bundled my car and home cover after using this site. The consultant called me within minutes, and I got a great discount for combining my policies… Highly recommended!”
Brandon L.
QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked
Can’t find what you’re looking for? Message us directly on FB messenger.
Is pet insurance really worth it?
For most pet owners, yes. A single emergency can cost R20k-R50k. Pet insurance turns that risk into a manageable R200-R600 monthly premium, and ensures you never have to make a financial decision about your pet’s life.
Are pre-existing conditions covered?
No — pet insurance does not cover conditions diagnosed before the policy starts. This is why insuring pets while they’re young and healthy gives you the best long-term value.
Are hereditary or breed-specific conditions covered?
Many policies cover them, but with waiting periods and sometimes specific exclusions for known breed predispositions. Always check the policy schedule.
Can I use my own vet?
In almost all cases, yes — you can use any registered vet in South Africa. Some insurers have “preferred vet” networks that offer direct billing convenience.
How quickly will my pet be covered after I accept a quote?
Accident cover typically activates within 24 hours. Illness cover usually has a 30-day waiting period. Specific surgical and hereditary conditions may have longer waiting periods.
