Passenger Liability

This benefit ensures you are protected should passengers choose to sue you in the case of an accident. Cover is limited to R100 000 per passenger, R2.5 million per event and R15 million per annum. This benefit is paid after claiming from Road Accident Fund. Overloading the vehicle is not covered and the vehicle must be in a roadworthy condition at all times.

Value-added benefits

A range of extra-value benefits included with all comprehensive policies.

Roadside Assist

Whether you’re stuck with a flat tyre, or you’ve run out of fuel, we offer you roadside emergency assistance.

Instalment Protect

If your taxi is involved in an accident, we pay up to two instalments to your credit provider while your taxi is in repairs. Cover is only applicable for 1 claim per annum, and the taxi must be repaired by an approved repairer. This is ONLY applicable to SA Taxi financed taxis.

Accident Assist

When the insured taxi is involved in an accident, you can contact us 24/7 to arrange dispatching of a towing service to collect the taxi and move it to the nearest approved repairer. Towing is limited to R2 500 for unapproved tows and the limit for storage is R1 500. To arrange a towing service you should contact 0800 214 790. We cannot guarantee that this service will be available, if your taxi is outside of the South African border.

Taxi Substitution

If your taxi is stolen, hijacked or written off in the first six months of purchase, we will replace your taxi with the same make/model and also pay for a new tracking unit and the installation. This is ONLY applicable to taxis that are financed through SA Taxi.

Proof of paid deposit is required. Events covered include vehicle write-off, accident damage or a total loss due to theft, fire, or hijacking.

Credit Shortfall

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs

1

What are my waiting periods for cover to commence?

There are no waiting periods. Your cover starts the moment you pay your first premium.
2

How long does it take for my claim to be finalised?

It depends on the extent of the damage. We authorise claims on average within 5 days of claim registration.
3

May I insure more than one vehicle?

Absolutely. You can combine vehicles onto a single policy or cover them across multiple policies to manage cashflow.
4

What rewards/incentives do I get for being a client?

We have a rewards programme available to all taxi operators. Please see www.sataxi.co.za for more information.
5

When and how often can I review my policy?

Your policy is reviewed annually, and you are notified in writing of the changes in premiums and benefits. It is common practice for insurers and clients to engage around the premium at this point. However, you are more than welcome to engage with us anytime there is a need to review your policy.
6

Can I opt for a flexible excess or excess waiver?

Absolutely. We have a flexible excess structure that allows you to tailor the policy to best suit your needs. Excess options range from R0-50 000 (max 30% of vehicle sum insured).
7

Can anyone else drive my vehicle besides the policy holder?

A driver that is employed by you either part time or full time, may drive the vehicle provided they have your consent and the necessary licences that must be valid at the time of the incident.
8

Must I note a regular driver?

This is recommended best practice as it ensures easy access for the driver to our roadside and accident assist benefits, where relevant.
9

Do I need to belong to a taxi association as I only transport school learners and workers from a specific company?

Yes.
10

Am I covered for 24hrs on the road because I have passengers who knock late after midnight?

This cover is included in our comprehensive insurance product. Assistance due to an accident is available 24/7 across all our vehicle insurance products.
11

Does having a tracker decrease my premium?

A tracking device is a requirement across most of our products and is already factored into the price we provide you. Where this is a requirement, clients are encouraged to regularly check the tracking units to ensure they are in full working order.
