JULO, an Indonesian fintech offering digital peer-to-peer lending, announced that it has launched ‘JULO Cares’, an embedded insurance coverage.
This new offering, backed by global general insurer Sompo, provides device protection for users availing of JULO’s digital credit services.
Throughout 2023, JULO has focused on launching new products aimed at supporting Indonesia’s underbanked and unbanked populations.

“We aim to add a layer of insurance inclusion to financial inclusion. With JULO Cares, we provide a unique gadget protection cover to our valued users. This embedded insurance cover gets auto-activated as part of the transaction flow itself when customers are using JULO’s digital credit.
Once activated, this cover protects their existing smartphone against all forms of device damage, ranging from dropping their phone by accident to incidents of phone theft. With this protection, we aim to ensure that our valued customers never lose access to their JULO app.”
