Meet Mandy.

Mandy's mother always made sure her children were provided for, and knew the risks early enough to take out a sturdy life policy.

Sadly...

Mandy lost her mother at 16 - fortunately with the proceeds from her mom's life insurance, she and her sisters were able to settle debts and continue to live their life.

And now...

Mandy is always told she is just like her mom, and just like her mom she took out a MyCover™ life policy with us for less than R 400 per month to make sure her family is protected like she was.

Frequently asked questions

What is the main difference between an Islamic will and a conventional will?

In a Shari’ah-compliant or Islamic will, the beneficiaries are determined upon the death of the testator rather than being nominated, as in a conventional will, during the lifetime of the testator.

Does my life cover form part of my estate?

Your life cover only forms part of your estate if you nominate your estate as the beneficiary on the life cover beneficiary nomination form. However, should your nominated beneficiary pre-decease you, the benefit could be paid to your estate and therefore form part of your estate.


What is an education protector?

An education protector is a safety net for your child’s education, in the case that you are no longer around to help cover the costs associated with their schooling, from pre-primary school to university. An education protector ensures that funds are securely ring-fenced to take care of your children’s education and care needs if you pass away, become severely ill or impaired. Given the nature of our integration of wills, trusts, insurance, technology & administration, parents can rest easy knowing that their children will enjoy the future that they deserve, if they are no longer around to provide for them. EduCare™ is Capital Legacy’s solution to the risk of passing away without leaving behind sufficient funding to cover your children’s education and care.


What is MyAbility Cover™?

A combination of impairment and critical illness means you are covered for either event, and if the benefit goes unused it will pay out with your life cover and not fall away.


What are the 3 types of testamentary trusts?

In estate planning in South Africa, testamentary trusts play a crucial role in safeguarding the financial security and well-being of beneficiaries. These trusts are established according to a person’s last will and testament and come into effect upon their passing, providing a framework for the management and distribution of assets. Below is an overview of the different types of testamentary trusts.Children’s trustA children’s trust, as the name suggests, is specifically designed to provide for minor children or dependents who may not be capable of managing their inheritance themselves. It allows the person whose will it is (testator = male, testatrix = female) to appoint a trustee who will oversee the management and distribution of assets on behalf of the children until they reach a specified age or milestone outlined in the will.The trustee is responsible for managing the assets in the best interests of the beneficiaries. The assets held in trust can be used to cover the children’s education expenses, healthcare needs, maintenance costs, and any other essential requirements. By establishing a children’s trust, the person whose will it is ensures that the children’s financial future is secure.Widow’s trustA widow’s trust is designed to provide financial support and security to the surviving spouse after the testator’s death. By creating a widow’s trust, the testator can ensure that their spouse is adequately taken care of.The widow’s trust is typically structured to provide the surviving spouse with regular income or distributions from the trust assets, while preserving the principal amount for the ultimate beneficiaries, such as children. The testator can specify the terms and conditions for the distribution of assets within the trust, ensuring that the surviving spouse’s needs are met without compromising the long-term financial stability of the other beneficiaries.Provider’s trustA provider’s trust focusses on ensuring the financial well-being of a dependent individual, such as a family member with a disability or a loved one with special needs, upon the testator’s passing. This trust is specifically designed to provide ongoing financial support and care for such beneficiaries, taking into account their unique requirements.By creating a provider’s trust, the testator ensures that their loved one will receive the necessary financial support, which will be managed by a trustee who understands the beneficiary’s specific needs.Choosing the right testamentary trust offers invaluable benefits and peace of mind in estate planning, particularly when it comes to providing for vulnerable beneficiaries. With these unique testamentary trust options for estate planning available – children’s, widow’s, provider’s trusts – the individual needs of your loved ones can be taken care of when you are no longer here.There are many types of trusts for asset management after death. However, when it comes to the individual requirements of minors, surviving spouses and dependents with special needs, you have access to unique testamentary trust options for estate planning.Not sure where to start?

What is BeneFactor™?

BeneFactor™ is the built-in feature of MyCover™ that gives you three different ways to structure your life cover benefit. You can choose the option that best suits you and you can change whenever you want.MORE BENEFIT - Secure more life cover at lower rates. This means, based on your unique risk profile, we can secure additional cover for you (over and above the requested amount) at a cheaper rate which results in you benefitting from increased life insurance cover at substantially reduced rates.LESS PREMIUM – Reduce your monthly premiums without sacrificing cover. If cash flow is tight, you can select the LESS PREMIUM option which reduces your monthly premium but does not reduce your requested cover amount.CASH BACK – Receive up to 12 months premiums cash back every five years. Benefit not only from our reduced rates every month, but we’ll also pay you back a cash lump sum every five years equal to roughly 12 months’ worth of premiums.

Not to brag, but we're kinda good at what we do.

Don't take our word for it though...

The painful process of winding up my late dad’s estate has been made efficient and pleasant. I recommend Capital Legacy based on their representation, vast competencies, follow-through abilities and general customer service. The staff members are empathetic and efficient, taking a personal interest in the client.
One of the customer care agents contacted me to remedy a frustration that I had been experiencing. Not only was he professional and prompt, but he was so charming and friendly that I ended the call laughing and having a better day. Thanks!
Thank you so much for your excellent service. I truly appreciate your assistance. It’s such a pleasure to receive good service, especially this time of the year.It was a blessing to have someone calling me and extending a friendly, patient and helping hand.

May you be blessed for your kind demeanor.
I was assisted by a customer care agent at Capital Legacy. He was extremely helpful and super friendly. The best service I’ve received in years. He was understanding and helped me with my problem, which put a smile on my face.

Extremely professional! Thank you for being amazing.
Our consultation took place at the office in JHB. We were warmly welcomed at reception and offered refreshments, and then ushered to the boardroom. We were assisted by Capital Legacy staff. Their service was excellent. Well done!
