The insurer AXA Côte d'Ivoire and Jumia, the ecommerce leader,
has launched the first online sales service for mobile phones
insurance in Côte D'Ivoire. Two products under the name ASSUR'MOBILE
S001 and ASSUR'MOBILE S002 available now through Jumia at annual
flat rates.
Taking advantage of the Mobile Week that started recently on
www.jumia.ci, AXA and Jumia Côte d'Ivoire have launched the two
policies as affordable device insurance plans offered to Jumia
customers. They provide the policyholder, cover against accidental
breakage of screens for a period of one year. The first, ASSUR'MOBILE
S001 is reserved for phones with a value between 40,000 and 100,000
CFA francs and costs only 2,500 CFA francs (4 USD). The second,
ASSUR'MOBILE S002, protects phones costing between 100 000 CFA francs
and 200 000 CFA francs for a flat premium of 3,500 CFA francs (6
USD).
The subscription to ASSUR'MOBILE is easy and convenient. The
customer will select the appropriate insurance plan while buying a
new phone on Jumia. He will receive a concise contract form with the
phone to fill out and sign without moving. The signed form will go
back with the delivery agent.
"This new service offered by Axa and Jumia is a big step
forward for consumers! It now becomes extremely simple to insure
against a very common and very costly damage, I think our customers
will take advantage of it during the Mobile Week" commented
Francis Dufay, Managing Director of Jumia Côte d'Ivoire.
According to a study by Love2recycle and confirmed by one from
Motorola, screen breakage is well ahead of mobile phone failures and
50% of smartphone users worldwide have already experienced a broken
screen.
