2. Executive
Summary
1. The Damage Protection Plan is an all-risk insurance solution that protects online
purchases up to 6 months after the recipient receives the item.
2. The Damage Protection Plan is designed to be bite-sized and embedded into the
purchasing journey of online shoppers, making it purposeful and simple for
Malaysian online shoppers while improving financial inclusion.
3. A simplified claims platform is developed to complement the protection plan,
ensuring that the claims management and processes are streamlined for easy
scalability.
3. Overview
In the Malaysian market, product
damage protection plans for online
purchases are typically packaged as
warranty extensions.
They are typically less popular as
products with warranties have
extensive exclusions, leading to a low
likelihood of successful claims.
Awareness of the importance of
insurance is low, and most
Malaysians do not insure their
belongings, leaving them at risk for
financial instability in the event of a
tragedy.
The Solution The Market
The Problem
According to Ernst & Young
Consulting, 30 million Malaysians, or
about 90% of the population, remain
underinsured.
Moreover, Malaysians remain
uninsured despite recurring issues
such as floods due to the monsoon
season.
In 2021, the annual floods due to the
monsoon season resulted in RM6.1
billion in overall losses, with RM1.6
billion being losses in living quarters.
Instead of pushing Malaysians to
insure themselves and their
belongings, PolicyStreet embeds
insurance protection within their
online purchasing journey.
The Damage Protection Plan protects
shoppers’ purchases against all risks,
including wear and tear, for up to six
months after delivery.

Asia’s largest e-commerce platforms, the
