NTUC Income pilots stackable insurance

SNACK allows micro-premiums and micro-policies that cover for 360 days.

NTUC Income Singapore has launched SNACK, a stackable insurance that allows the payment of micro-premiums, according to an announcement.

With SNACK, the insured gradually builds insurance coverage by paying micro-premiums at either $0.30, $0.50 or $0.70 and accumulates micro-policies that offer a specified sum assured that corresponds with the premiums paid. Each micro-policy covers the policyholder for 360 days even after insurance payment stops.

The policyholder can also decide when and how frequent premiums are paid by linking them to preferred lifestyle triggers, such as eating, exercising or taking public transport.

Currently, SNACK is partnered with EZ-Link, Fitbit and Burpple to enable policyholders to accumulate term life, critical illness, and personal accident coverage on the SNACK mobile app. Visa will also come on board to enable retail, entertainment, transport, and grocery triggers for all local cardholders whenever they make a purchase.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
