Your benefits package is missing half the family.
FurSure powers South Africa's first workplace pet insurance benefit. Zero admin for HR. Real cover for the pets your team can't stop worrying about.
Employers & HR teams
Add the benefit 49% of your team is waiting for, and HR doesn't have to manage.
Pet parents
Get cover through your employer, no direct debit, no hassle.
Benefit consultants
A category-first pet insurance benefit most of your clients don't have yet.
Your team doesn't leave their pets at the door.
Pet ownership in South Africa has outpaced the benefits packages designed to support it. Vet bills rank among the top unplanned financial stressors for working adults, and most employers have no answer for it.
FurSure is that answer.
The gap in your benefits package, by the numbers.
49%
of SA adults own a pet
Nearly half your workforce has a pet at home, and most of them worry about vet bills at work.
<2%
of pets are insured
The category is wide open. FurSure is how employers get there first.
R15,000+
average major surgery cost
One emergency. One month's salary. Most employees aren't prepared.

How FurSure's payroll benefit works
A straight timeline from sign-off to payroll, built so HR sees workload drop, not rise.
Day 1
Employer sets up the benefit
You choose the rollout option. We send the setup pack and payroll requirements. Employees get invited to the portal.
Day 2–3
Employees enrol online
Self-service onboarding. Each household picks the plan shape that fits, no HR chasing forms.
Day 4
Premiums run through payroll
Deductions align to your payroll cycle. HR does not service policies or handle claims.
Ongoing
Claims stay with the insurer
Claims follow the insurer process and policy terms. Employees go direct, not through People Ops.
Flexible plans. Real cover. No HR admin.
Choose how your team gets covered, by household or per pet. Both run through payroll.
Not sure which fits? Household plans cover all your pets on one policy. Individual plans give each pet their own dedicated cover.
From R179/month
One policy. Every pet under your roof.
Cats and dogs, no age restrictions. A single household policy covers all your pets for accidents and acute illness, vet consults, emergency treatment, and medication included. No limit on the number of pets covered.
Smart & Comprehensive tiers
Per-pet cover. Built for the ones who need more.
Two tiers, Smart for everyday protection, Comprehensive for full-spectrum cover including hereditary conditions and R1,000/year in lifestyle benefits. Any SAVC-registered vet. Claims paid within 72 hours.
All plans run through your employer's payroll. Employees enrol and manage everything themselves.
Enrolled members also unlock perks from our partner network, including Petsly health tracking, Pet Heaven retail savings, Vondis food benefits and more.
Offer a benefit pet parents will love
What your team will tell you after day one.
