With more than 30 years' experience, we've established ourselves as a leader in South African insurance. In that time, we've continually delivered insurance that our clients can rely on, through our superior products, benefits, and partnerships.
At Auto & General, we've also always understood that our clients' priorities may change and grow through their lifetimes, and we want to be there for them no matter what life stage they're at. Over three decades, we've continued to expand our range of products to include personal, business, life, and value-added products, so that our clients' needs are met, no matter what those needs are.

Benefits of taking Insurance with Auto & General
Emergencies can happen at any time of the day, any day of the week. As an Auto & General client, you don’t need to worry about the unexpected; our 24/7 Assist Benefits are available to all Comprehensive Vehicle, Home Contents, and Buildings Insurance policyholders.
- Home
- We’ll cover the call-out fee and one hour’s labour for plumbers, electricians, glaziers, and locksmiths, because a home emergency doesn’t need to be a dreadful experience.
- Road
- When things go wrong with your car, we’re just a phone call away. Our Road Assist includes breakdown and accident assistance.
- Trauma
- If you have a traumatic experience, we will provide you with face-to-face counselling sessions, therapy referrals, and other forms of emotional support to get you through.
- Medical
- In a medical emergency, time is of the essence. We have a 24/7 telephonic advice line if you’re unsure of what to do, emergency response and transfers to medical facilities, and more.
- Legal
- Speak to a qualified attorney for legal documentation, agreements, courtroom preparation, and referrals. Plus, you get telephonic tax advice.
- Entertainment
- If you need help planning an event, you can find out all you need to know about major entertainment events, hotels, restaurants, and general travel arrangements.
- As an Auto & General client, you will also have access to AutoSOS, our smartphone-based impact detection app. It sends emergency medical assistance directly to your location on the road when you are unable to call for help. If you're in a severe accident, our AutoSOS call centre will be notified straight away, and we will attempt to call you.
- If we can't reach you, the nearest emergency medical services will be immediately dispatched to assist you.
- The AutoSOS benefit is available to the regular driver on our Comprehensive Vehicle Insurance policy.
