These Terms and Conditions regulate access to and use of our platform and any services provided herein. By accessing the platform, submitting your information, or using our services, you signify your agreement to these terms, which are binding and enforceable against all users.
1. Introduction and Services
We operate as an online lead generation and comparison platform that connects users with third-party partners, including accredited financial service providers, insurers, and other service companies.
- Role: We are not a financial services provider, we do not sell insurance, nor do we provide financial advice. We introduce you to third-party providers who handle quotes, advice, and product administration.
- Costs: Our platform is entirely free to use and commission-free for you. We may receive a referral fee from our partners when you choose to explore their products, but this fee does not affect the price you pay.
2. Consent and Subscriptions
- Opt-In: By voluntarily completing our forms and submitting your details, you consent to us and our partners contacting you via email, SMS, telephone, or social media to provide obligation-free quotes and related service offers.
- Bureau Data Access: You consent to us requesting your full credit information from a registered credit bureau to determine your qualification for certain goods and services. This process does not leave a footprint that impacts your credit score.
- Opting Out: You may opt out of marketing communications at any time using provided prompts or by contacting us directly.
3. User Warranties and Responsibilities
By using the platform, you warrant that:
- You are a legal adult (over 18 years of age) with the capacity to agree to these terms.

All content, layout, graphics, underlying software, and trademarks on the platform are our exclusive property or the property of our licensors. You are granted a limited, personal, non-exclusive license to use the platform for personal purposes; any commercial exploitation, reproduction, or modification is strictly prohibited without our prior written consent.
5. Limitation of Liability and Disclaimers
- "As Is" Basis: The platform is provided "as is" and we make no warranties regarding its accuracy, uninterrupted availability, or freedom from harmful components.
- Third-Party Relationships: Once you opt-in to receive quotes, your relationship is strictly with the third-party provider, and you must review their terms and privacy policies. We are not liable for any subscription, transaction, or contract that arises between you and a third party.
- Indemnity: You unconditionally indemnify us, our directors, employees, and partners against any claims, damages, losses, or legal costs arising from your use of the platform, your breach of these terms, or reliance on any external links provided.
6. Dispute Resolution and General Provisions
- Disputes: Any dispute arising between you and us shall first be addressed via negotiation and mediation. If unresolved, it will proceed to confidential and binding arbitration governed by the expedited rules of the Arbitration Foundation of Southern Africa (AFSA).
- Jurisdiction: These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa.
- Amendments: We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time without notice, and your continued use of the platform constitutes acceptance of the amended terms.
