South Africans think we’re lekker. But don’t just take our word for it. See what they have to say:
Service provided is useful. Getting multiple quotes quickly and easily in one place is very convenient. When capturing my age I had to scroll for longer than needed to get all the way back to 1978. Consider changing this to an input field where you can just type in the date.

Got a question?
How will Hippo save me money?
96% of people who compare more than one product on Hippo*, discover they've been overpaying. When you compare quotes across multiple brands at once, you can see who offers the best cover at the most competitive price for your specific profile. Savings vary based on individual risk profiles, but the average Hippo user saves R539 per month on Car Insurance, and R1,208 per month when comparing multiple products, including Car Insurance
How does the comparison process work?
Simply click "Get started" on any product, follow the prompts and enter your details. We will gather multiple quotes from different brands. Quote prices come directly from our partners, with no markup added. Once you've decided which one is right for you, we can assist you through the acceptance process. The whole thing takes under 2 minutes and is done entirely online.
Why not go directly to the insurer?
You won't get it cheaper by going direct. We show you the insurer's price with no markup added. Going direct also only gives you one quote. To get a fair view of what you could be paying elsewhere, you'd need to contact each insurer separately, provide the same details multiple times, and manually compare the results yourself. Hippo saves you from that hassle.
I already have insurance, is it still worth comparing?
Yes. Your premium is not fixed for life. Your risk profile changes as you get older, as your claims history builds, as your family grows, and insurers update their rates regularly. Many people find that comparing quotes leads to meaningful savings, even when their cover hasn't changed. There's no cost to compare with Hippo, and no obligation to switch, that alone makes it worth it.
What makes Hippo different from insurers?
Hippo is not an insurer. We're an independent comparison platform. Our responsibility is to help you find the right cover at the right price, not to sell you a specific product. We work on your behalf, presenting quotes from multiple brands so you can make an informed choice. Our partners pay us a referral fee if you accept a policy through us, which is how we're able to keep the comparison service free and accessible. Our independence is protected, and we strive to make sure every comparison is accurate and fair.
Are my quotes a guarantee of the final premium price?
Once you've selected a quote from us, the insurer will be in touch with you to conduct a much more thorough quotation process. During this, additional questions might be asked, and your answers may change the premium from the one you were quoted on our website. Having said that, the quotes shouldn't differ too much, as we try to get accurate prices for you.
