PhonePe launches new insurance coverage for firecracker accidents

 ● At just ₹9, PhonePe users can receive a comprehensive coverage of up to ₹25,000 of Sum Insured for 10 days during the festive season 

PhonePe today announced the launch of a new insurance plan, offering comprehensive protection against firecracker-related accidents and providing users with affordable insurance coverage during the upcoming festive season of Diwali. The coverage plan, available at just ₹9 (inclusive of GST), provides PhonePe users up to ₹25,000 comprehensive coverage for 10 days during the festival period to safeguard against any firecracker-related accidents. With this launch, users nationwide can celebrate the festival with security and peace of mind, knowing that in the event of an accident, they are financially protected against hospitalization and accidental death expenses.

Due to firecracker-related injuries during the festive season across the country, PhonePe has introduced this product to combat any potential financial burden against such unexpected events. The Firecracker insurance plan offers 10 days of coverage beginning from October 25th, 2024, at an affordable price of just ₹9. The plan, which can be purchased under a minute on the PhonePe app, also provides comprehensive family coverage by insuring up to 4 family members, including the user, their spouse, and up to 2 children. If a user makes the purchase after October 25th, then the policy cover will start from the purchase date. This short-term coverage is tailored specifically to the festive season, offering affordable and timely protection to users.
