RemitCare, protection for your loved ones when you send money home

Make qualifying transfers on PayAngel and your family in Ghana can get added support for hospitalisation and death benefit, starting with the Free Bronze Package.

What is RemitCare

RemitCare is an embedded life insurance benefit linked to PayAngel remittances for Ghanaians receiving money. It is designed to provide peace of mind and financial support in the event of hospitalisation and, in the unfortunate event of death, support for the named policy holder’s next of kin.

RemitCare is provided at no additional cost by PayAngel in partnership with Sanlam Allianz. Coverage is subject to eligibility and the insurer’s policy terms & conditions.

How It works​

1. Send money with PayAngel

Make your normal transfer to Ghana using the PayAngel app. Nothing extra to buy and nothing new to set up.

2. Qualify automatically

When you send GBP 100 (or USD, CAD, EUR) or more in a month, you become eligible for the Free Bronze RemitCare cover.

3. Choose who is protected

In the app, select one eligible family member or dependent in Ghana and confirm their details.

4. Get covered

Once your transfer is completed and your beneficiary is set, RemitCare becomes active and stays active as long as you keep sending qualifying transfers.

Only successful and completed transfers activate or renew coverage.
