Your team's pets don't have medical cover. That's your next retention problem.
FurSure enables the only workplace pet insurance benefit built for South African payroll. Your employees enrol themselves. You take the credit.
Why this benefit hits harder than another medical aid top-up.
Financial pressure
The problem
When a pet hits a crisis, the bill lands on the same household budget that already runs tight.
The benefit
Workplace pet cover turns shock vet costs into a predictable payroll line employees opt into.
The proof
75% of employees report medium-to-high financial stress, pet emergencies stack on top of that.
Time away from work
The problem
Worrying about vet bills and logistics pulls focus, including unplanned time out of the office.
The benefit
Faster decisions and covered care mean people get back to work with less hanging over them.
The proof
Teams stay steadier when everyday pet risk is insured, not improvised on a credit card.
Retention signal
The problem
Medical aid top-ups feel incremental. Pet cover is visible, employees talk about it.
The benefit
You signal that whole households matter, not just the humans on the scheme.
The proof
76% of employees believe pet healthcare should be standard in benefit packages.
A practical, modern benefit, built for HR teams

FurSure provides deduction specifications aligned to payroll cycles.
Employees enrol digitally and select their preferred plan type.
The insurer manages policy servicing and claims processes. HR remains outside of claims administration.
What we handle for you.
FurSure handles:
- Licensed partners hold advice, policy interpretation, and insurer-grade servicing.
- Employees engage insurer processes directly, HR is not in the claims chain.
- Medical information for cover stays between the member and the insurer.
- Claims escalation sits with the insurer, aligned to policy terms.
HR only needs to:
- Approve benefit structure
- Implement payroll deduction
- Share internal communications
- Provide launch visibility
Employees interact directly with licensed partners and insurer processes.
Flexible plan types for different households
Household plans (one household policy)
One policy covering the pets in a household under a single structure.
Individual plans (per-pet)
Per-pet cover with defined annual limits and benefits.
