You made the wise insurance choice, now it’s time to understand what your policy entails. Your iWYZE policy will continue to provide peace of mind for when life happens. We at iWYZE want to empower you and as such we’ve spent time working hard to improve your car insurance policy benefits and to increase our offering to you. 

Please remember to take time to read through your car insurance policy schedule and documentation. Check that the information contained in your policy schedule is accurate and don’t forget that your premiums are debited monthly from your bank account in advance.  

In this article we will be highlighting some of the policy benefits, your responsibilities as well as certain policy exclusions and policy restrictions:

What happens if my brand-new car is a total loss after a big accident?

  • If you are your car’s first owner and in less than 12 months, a total loss happens after an accident, iWYZE will provide the following:
  • We will consider if you insured the car for retail or market value;
    • Retail value is the estimated value that most dealers will sell a car for;
    • Market value is the average retail and trade-in value of the car.
  • Then depending on the value, iWYZE will compensate you at the value of the current price of a new car of a similar model; if the same model will no longer be available, then we will use the closest similar model.
  • Your only contribution will be your excess if you insured for retail value and if you selected market value, then we will deduct the deprecation since you bought the car and this will be at our discretion.
  • Happy and responsible driving in your brand-new wheels, iWYZE has you covered.
