About Pineapple

What we do

The first insurtech to be accepted into Google's accelerator!

Voted MTN consumer app of the year 2018!

Listed at the top of Startups to look out for in 2018 in Gauteng by Ventureburn. With big backing and in an industry that is begging to be disrupted!

A diverse team that was put together as part of a disruption competition.

Insurance is broken and people hate it. As you read this you are probably thinking how much you hate it. For every R100 a South African consumer pays they get around R36 value. We are going to change that!
