There are many ways to save but there’s no doubt that Dash PET by Etiqa Insurance is currently one of the best ways to do so.

A collaboration between Singtel Dash and Etiqa Insurance, Dash PET is a high returns insurance savings plan that helps you Protect, Earn and Transact. 

What is Singtel Dash?

Singtel Dash is an all-in-one mobile e-wallet that lets you pay, remit, save and insure from one app. Whether in-store or online, locally or overseas, make secured and easy payments with Dash. Need to send money home?

What can you do on Dash:

Besides earning high returns when you save, you can now boost your returns even more when you protect yourself with additional insurance coverage. At the same time, enjoy flexibility on your savings when you can transfer your money seamlessly between your Dash PET policy and Dash wallet to transact easily! 

Here are three reasons why you should get a Dash PET policy:

  1. High returns for everyone

Save better and earn up to 1.3%* p.a with Dash PET, the insurance savings plan that offers the best rate in town (compared to similar products currently available for subscription). When all you need is as low as S$50 (and up to S$30,000) to start saving, practically everyone - whether you’re a student, working adult, homemaker, or even a retiree - can enjoy the benefits of Dash PET. 

And the benefits are attractive indeed. It includes: 

  • High returns in a low-interest environment: Earn 1.3%* p.a. on the first S$10,000 saved, and 0.3% p.a. for savings above the first S$10,000.
  • Boosted returns on your first S$10,000 savings: Get 0.2%^ p.a. when you opt in for free insurance protection and up to 0.75%# p.a. when you activate add-on protection plans (more details below)
  • Capital-guaranteed savings: Your savings are safe against market changes and macroeconomic factors.
  • No lock-in period: Top up or withdraw your savings anytime - great for emergency usage or storing idle cash!
  • Free insurance coverage: Get free COVID-19 coverage that includes vaccine side effects, as well as life protection of 105% of your account value. In its latest update, new users are eligible for complimentary coverage of up to $50,000^ for Death and Total Permanent Disability^. 

Dash PET is also insured by SDIC, which makes it a safe way to save. Sounds pretty comprehensive, doesn’t it? And when all you need is S$50 to unlock these benefits and more, that’s great value.

But wait, there’s more.

  1. Comprehensive protection at an affordable price

To help you meet your protection needs, Dash PET is offering free add-on protection of up to S$50,000^ for Death & Total and Permanent Disability^ for selected policyholders in their first Dash PET policy year. 

And if you prefer more coverage, you can activate the three new add-on protection plans available with Dash PET. Each of the three add-on protection plans offer coverage of up to S$100,000 for the following areas, with premiums starting from just $0.02 a day (based on S$10,000 sum assured for a 17 year-old female non-smoker). 

  1. Major Cancer: Covers critical stage cancers, including leukaemia, lymphoma and sarcoma
  2. Death & Total and Permanent Disability: Provides lump sum payment in the event of death or inability to perform three out of six Activities of Daily Living (ADL).
