AEON Bank has added two Zurich Takaful plans to its app to give Malaysians low-cost protection starting from RM5 a month.
The move extends the partnership first announced in May 2024 and brings 100 percent Shariah-compliant protection from Zurich directly into AEON Bank’s digital ecosystem.
The Personal Accident Takaful and Term Takaful plans are available through the app.
Both plans are fully digital and accessible around the clock. Malaysians aged 18 to 59 can compare options, enrol and activate coverage within minutes without meeting agents or submitting physical forms.
Users can select their preferred plan, review benefits and confirm payment in one session, and they can also view their certificates and manage ongoing payments within the app.
The Personal Accident Takaful plan starts from RM5 per month and provides coverage for accidental death or total permanent disablement, with sum covered options of RM50,000 or RM80,000.
The Term Takaful plan starts from RM18 per month and offers wider protection, including death or permanent disability from natural or accidental causes, funeral expenses and daily hospitalisation benefits, with the same sum covered choices.
AEON Bank’s CEO, YM Raja Datin Paduka Teh Maimunah Raja Abdul Aziz, said,
“Our customers are already using the AEON Bank app on a daily basis for their digital payments, while managing their budget and finances, so being able to select affordable Takaful plans and protect themselves and their families through the same familiar platform that they trusted is the natural next step for them.
Our goal is to provide the right products to enable our customers to live fully, care for their families, as well as protect themselves, go on adventures and enjoy every moment with greater peace of mind, as protection is within the app’s reach.”
Junior Cho, Country CEO of Zurich Malaysia, added,
“With over 150 years of global experience, Zurich has earned the trust of millions worldwide by providing reliable and forward-looking protection solutions. Our goal is to make ethical, inclusive protection accessible to all by keeping it simple to start, easy to understand, and resonating with modern lifestyles.
This marks the continued delivery of micro-Takaful solutions that meet the needs of individuals and families across the country, helping to create a brighter future for all.”
Both organisations plan to introduce more micro-Takaful and broader protection options as part of their ongoing partnership.
