Smart. Strong. Covered: Why Every Woman Needs Life Insurance
04 Aug 2025
At MiWayLife, we believe life insurance for women isn’t a luxury, it’s a must – and we’re proud to make it easy and affordable.
August is Women’s Month, a time to honour the resilience and strength of women across South Africa.
At the same time, it’s important that you protect what you’re working so hard to build and that’s where life insurance comes in. While it might not be the most glamorous conversation, it’s still one of the most empowering financial tools any woman can have in her corner.
Why All Woman Need Life Insurance
Whether your focus is on studying, working, raising a family – or juggling it all like a boss – we think life insurance is a must-have for women. With the right cover in place, you can enjoy full peace of mind knowing that, should you pass away, your debts won’t burden your family and, if you have children, they won’t have to go without. Remember, even if you’re a stay at home mom, the childcare you provide is invaluable. If something had to happen to you, what would it cost to outsource all the “free” care you provide?

Far too often, women delay getting cover because it doesn’t feel urgent. You’ve got a million others things to do (after all, who runs the world?) and it feels like something you can consider later on. But the truth is, the earlier you buy life insurance, the more affordable it is. Life insurers, including MiWayLife, will calculate your premium based on certain factors that include your age and health. The younger and healthier you are, the lower your life insurance premiums are likely to be.
How MiWayLife Makes It Easy
At MiWayLife, we like to keep things simple. For an affordable monthly premium, you’ll be offered a coverage amount of your choosing that’s paid out in a lump sum to your beneficiaries in the event of your passing.
All of our policies includes an Accelerated Funeral Benefit that pays out 10% of your total cover amount (capped at R50 000) that pays out fast. As this amount is separate to your life insurance cover amount, your loved ones won’t have to dip into your life insurance cover – or their savings – to give you a dignified farewell.
All MiWayLife life insurance policies also include a Terminal Illness Benefit. This allows you to access a portion of your life cover early if you’re diagnosed with a terminal illness with a prognosis of less than 12 months.
Get Cover For Everyone You Love
At MiWayLife, we know that many South African women are the financial backbone of their families and these come in all shapes and sizes. It’s not uncommon to be taking care of your parents. The children you take care of aren’t necessarily your own. This is why we make it easy for you to extend the funeral cover benefit of your policy to everyone you care about it, be it your parents, partner’s parents, children, adopted children, nieces, nephews, you name it. So it’s not just your life that’s covered, it’s everyone you love. (Just bear in mind that additional lives insured on your include on policy will mean an increase in your premium.)
The Bottom Line
This Women’s Month, why not take a powerful step to protect the legacy you’re creating, as well as the people you love, with life insurance? You can get a quick obligation-free quote within minutes and we’d love the chance to impress you with our great service and affordable premiums.
