"With this launch, millions of PhonePe users can now protect their families from financial turmoil in the event of an untimely demise," PhonePe said in a statement.

"India’s population has an insurance penetration of just 2.73%.

This is especially true for Indians in tier 2 cities and beyond. PhonePe with its 250 million+ user base aims to improve awareness and penetration of term life insurance products and solve this industry wide issue," PhonePe added in a statement.
