Payment protection insurance
Secure repayments of loans and credit if you become ill, unemployed or die.
What is payment protection insurance?
When you borrow money or use a credit card, it comes with a responsibility to repay what you owe. But what happens to your ability to pay if you become unemployed or ill? We cannot prevent unforeseen events, but with payment protection insurance we can make your financial situation a bit easier if something unexpected should occur.
Payment protection insurance secures your finances, for example, by covering loan repayments and clearing debt if you become ill, unemployed or die. You can buy payment protection insurance for consumer loans and credit cards. If you would like a secured car loan or a loan for other vehicles, this can be ordered when you take out the loan. The kind of cover you have depends on what you’re insuring.
Payment protection insurance for credit cards and consumer loans
Payment protection insurance helps you pay off credit card debt or your consumer loan if you become ill, unemployed or temporarily laid off, or if you die.
Should something happen to you, your expenses on your Mastercard or consumer loan are covered for 12 months. If you are still on sick leave or unemployed after having received 12 monthly disbursements, the remaining debt will be cleared.
