Coverage begins on October 25, and users can purchase the plan within a minute on the PhonePe app. Additionally, the policy covers up to four family members, including the user, their spouse, and up to two children.
“We are excited to introduce PhonePe’s Firecracker Insurance just in time for the festive season. This coverage offers essential protection for families, ensuring they can celebrate with peace of mind, free from concerns about accidents or unexpected financial strain,” said Vishal Gupta, CEO of PhonePe Insurance Broking Services.
