What your phone is covered for
Phone insurance that covers the stuff that actually happens.
Your cellphone lives a dangerous life. Pockets, handbags, toddlers, taxis, tables in restaurants. The king's cellphone insurance covers your phone for:
Loss
Left it in an Uber? Covered.
Theft
Snatched, swiped or stolen in a break-in? Covered.
Accidental damage
Cracked screens, cracked backs, cracked everything? Covered.
Water damage
Pools, puddles and washing machines? Covered.
And here's the royal part. If we can't repair your phone, we replace it with a brand-new one. Not a "similar" one. Not a mystery refurb. Brand new.
Please note: your phone needs to be insured at its full replacement value. Insure it for less and we can only pay out proportionally. Rather get it right upfront, it takes 2 minutes.
Every phone. Every brand.
iPhone insurance? Samsung? Huawei? Bring them all.
iPhone insurance
From the latest Pro Max to the trusty iPhone 13 that refuses to die, we cover Apple's finest against loss, theft and gravity.
Samsung insurance
Galaxy S, Z Fold, A-series. If it folds, flips or just phones, it's covered.
No network lock-in either. Whether you bought your phone from MTN, Vodacom, or cash at the mall, cover is between you and the king. One policy, any network, worldwide.
Huawei, Xiaomi, Oppo, Honor and the rest
If it has an IMEI number, the king will insure it.
