As Botswana Life Insurance Limited (Botswana Life) celebrates its 50-year legacy of financial security and trust, the company has introduced two groundbreaking insurance solutions tailored to the evolving needs of Batswana families: Poelo Whole of Life – Age Related Escalations and EduCare.

Both products were officially launched as part of Botswana Life’s commitment to future-fit life insurance—addressing the demands of modern consumers who seek greater certainty, flexibility, and value in an uncertain world.


Poelo Whole of Life – Age Related Escalations is designed for individuals looking to protect themselves and their loved ones with a policy that evolves with life. The product allows policyholders to access from P300,000 up to P100 million in life cover, with escalating benefits linked to the age of the policyholder. With low initial premiums, a 120% premium payback after 15 years, and no waiting period, the product offers peace of mind alongside long-term value.

“This is not just life insurance—it’s a life solution,” said Neo Bogatsu, Retail Director at Botswana Life. “With Poelo Whole of Life – Age Related Escalations, we’re giving customers a product that adapts as their responsibilities grow. Whether it’s starting a family, advancing in a career, or planning for legacy, this product grows with you.”

Optional cover enhancements also include spouse life cover, disability, and funeral benefits—making the product highly customisable to each policyholder’s needs.


In parallel, EduCare is a family-focused policy that ensures children’s education needs are covered, regardless of life’s uncertainties. With cover from P100,000 up to P10 million, the plan includes monthly premiums from as low as P200, and key benefits such as:

- 30% premium cashback, if one does not claim throughout the policy term,
- Cover for death and permanent disability,
- Emergency Medical Evacuation through partners such as Thuso 992 and EA 991.

“This product is designed with children in mind—but it speaks to every parent’s deepest desire: to give their child a secure future, no matter what,” added Bogatsu. “With EduCare, Botswana Life is investing in the next generation through protection that prioritises both education and health.”


As Botswana Life marks its 50th anniversary, the company continues to strengthen its position as Botswana’s trusted life insurer by adapting to the realities of a new generation. While legacy is built over decades, Botswana Life is focused on innovation and relevance—ensuring its products meet current market needs without compromising long-standing values.

Both Poelo Whole of Life – Age Related Escalations and EduCare are now available through Botswana Life’s nationwide network of financial advisors and digital platforms. Clients can access assistance by calling +267 362 3700, emailing clientservices@blil.co.bw, or visiting www.botswanalife.co.bw.
