Softlogic Life in partnership with Dialog Axiata PLC, Sri Lanka’s premier telecommunication services provider, announced the launch of a new and innovative ‘Life Insurance’ plan under the Per Day Insurance brand.

With the intention of launching novel and innovative products to market, Softlogic Life in collaboration with Dialog, has ventured into delivering convenient insurance plans that are accessible across different economic segments.

 

Adding value to the already established ‘Per Day Insurance’ hospitalization and accident covers, Life Insurance will enable every Dialog customer to enjoy the benefits of a comprehensive life insurance package from Softlogic Life, at an affordable price.

 

With the objective of enabling a life insurance cover for every Sri Lankan, Life Insurance is positioned to become a pioneering product in the industry, offering from as low as Rs.1 to Rs.10 per day and covers ranging from Rs.100,000 to Rs.1,000,000.

 

The service also extends life protection up to the age of 70 years through a transparent and hassle-free process with zero documentation.

 

Also Softlogic Life has collaborated with MILVIK Lanka (pvt) Ltd as the customer service support partner.

 

The service is exclusively available for all prepaid and postpaid customers of Dialog.

 

Expressing his views, Softlogic Life Managing Director, Iftikar Ahamed said, “We are proud to partner with Dialog Axiata to introduce this timely Per Day Life Insurance Plan for Dialog’s widespread customer base in Sri Lanka.

 

The simple life protection product was designed based on two important ethoses: one, offer an adequate life insurance cover for every Dialog customer and two, give Dialog customers the ability to purchase it with ease.”

 

“Our latest offering will empower Dialog customers to make a worthy choice vis-à-vis their family liabilities and protect their loved ones’ future financial prospects at an affordable price,” Ahamed alluded further.

 

Softlogic Life ensures reliability and efficiency for Dialog customers in terms of claim settlements, considering its globally award-winning reputation with claim settlements over the years.

 

In 2016 alone, Softlogic Life has given away health claims worth more than Rs.100 million and settled 80% of their claims within 24 hours.

 

Mr. Supun Weerasinghe, Group Chief Executive Officer, Dialog Axiata PLC said, “Dialog and Softlogic Life have continued to strengthen their relationship through multiple strategic initiatives in the past.

 

Per Day Insurance was initially launched to extend Mobile Micro Insurance services targeting the rural masses, and the product continues to gain traction for its convenience.

 

Life Insurance, the latest addition to our suite of offerings, provides an opportunity for all Dialog customers to receive a special life insurance plan at an affordable price that can be conveniently accessed.”

 

Dialog customers can now register for the service by dialing #107*1#.

 

Upon successful registration, an SMS will be sent to the user with details.

 

For Prepaid customers, a fee will be deducted from their credit balance daily and for postpaid customers, it will be added to their monthly bill.

 

In the situation of an unfortunate death, the nominee will have to inform the dedicated customer care agent by dialing 444.

 

After submission of the required documents, the claim will be awarded to the user within 72 hours.
