The Future of Device Claims in South Africa: Stop Fraud Before It Starts
It doesn’t have to stay that way
The insurance industry in South Africa has reached a turning point with device claims. Cellphone, laptop and tablet fraud is no longer a small problem, it has become a predictable and expensive drain on claims budgets.
But it doesn’t have to stay that way.
Forward-thinking insurers, underwriters and brokers are moving from reactive blacklists to proactive prevention. They are using a shared device registry to check every device before a policy is issued and before a claim is paid.
This simple change is delivering real results:
- Fraudulent and duplicate claims are caught early
- Claims teams make faster, more confident decisions
- Legitimate customers get paid quicker
- Overall device claim ratios start improving within weeks
DeviceRegister.co.za makes this possible today. It gives every participating company instant access to the device’s full history, previous reports, network status, and claim attempts, all in one secure place.
The best part? The more insurers and brokers that join the registry, the stronger it becomes for everyone. Fraudsters will find it increasingly difficult to move stolen or previously claimed devices around the market.
This is the future of device claims in South Africa: fewer losses, better data, stronger fraud controls, and fairer premiums for honest policyholders.
The technology is ready. The question is simple, will your company be one of the ones using it, or will you continue paying for the same old fraud patterns?
