Hippo.co.za Aims To Ease The Stress Of Finding The Best Deals When Searching For Insurance. Launched in 2007, Hippo.co.za is South Africa’s first comparison website and compares insurance and other personal finance products from a range of South African brands. Before Hippo.co.za, consumers had to call around for hours trying to find the cheapest quote to suit their needs. Hippo.co.za helps consumers find the best deals on Car Insurance, Home Contents Insurance, Medical Aid Cover, Life Insurance and much more. Hippo.co.za makes it quick and easy for consumers to compare prices and benefits from some of South Africa’s leading providers, and to then request more information about a product or to buy the product easily over the phone.
Hippo.co.za makes use of cutting-edge technology to provide its customers with the best deal. Its web services are managed and run by leading and experienced web developers, meaning that its customers always have the best experience, and that the quotes are always competitive. The quotes it provides are pulled directly from its providers. Hippo.co.za is free to use, and commission free. It makes money simply by charging its partners a fee when a customer chooses to find out more about their products. This is important because, as a business, it needs to make money in order to continue to provide its customers with the best deals.
