Send with Care,  a micro insurance joint venture between MMI Holdings and MTN Group which was announced in September this year offers an insurance cover “aYo Send with Care and aYo Recharge with Care” for every transaction you make via MTN Mobile Money.

1. Adding aYo Send with Care to your MTN Mobile money account
Once you add “aYo Send with Care Cover” to the money you send with MTN Mobile Money, aYo will triple every amount you’ve sent, and pay it out directly to your beneficiaries in case you pass away or be hospitalized. The payments are made in 12 equal monthly installments, which expires 120 days after purchase. For instance, when you send 30,000 UGX to Tom, aYo will triple this to 90,000UGX. Therefore, the more transactions you send, the more your cover increases. All you need to do is send at least once every 120 days to ensure your beneficiaries are always covered.[related-posts]
