The new normal has paved the way for the emergence of various options for commuting going to and from work (or other purposes). This is why Sun Life is once again introducing an affordable and quick digital insurance product that provides accident coverage for any form of land travel.
The country’s top insurer now offers Byahero Protect, a digital insurance policy that not just covers accidents but also provides additional benefits for unexpected land travel accidents. It is the latest addition to the insurance brand’s growing suite of Digital, Easy, Affordable Life (D.E.A.L.) insurance products—which currently includes Life Armor, Family Armor, and Personal Accident Armor. These digital products are available through the e-commerce platform Lazada.
Accident insurance
“As Filipinos find their way in the new normal, more and more will be venturing out on the roads to pursue their livelihood,” said Sun Life Philippines CEO and Country Head Benedict Sison. “Staying financially protected is paramount more than ever, especially if they have loved ones who rely on them. With Byahero Protect, we can help alleviate worries so they can focus on being productive and getting home safely to their families. This is our way of reinforcing our commitment to helping Filipinos secure a brighter future.”
Byahero Protect is exclusively available to registered members of Lazada. For just P100, this digital insurance product provides a P25,000-coverage in case of accidental death or dismemberment, with additional payout and burial benefits if the death was due to a land travel accident.
On top of those benefits, Byahero Protect also provides a daily hospitalization income benefit worth P250 per day, for up to a maximum of 10 days, in case the insured is hospitalized due to a land-travel accident. There is even an additional amount if the insured is confined in a hospital’s intensive care unit (ICU).

Byahero Protect covers any land travel—on-boarding land vehicles like cars, vans, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, tricycles, e-bikes, e-trikes, and fare-based common carriers like buses, trains, jeep, UV Express, TNVS, and taxis.
