What is NICO Money?

NICO Money is a neobank that aims to simplify financial services for users in a rapidly growing market where many adults lack traditional bank accounts. The platform focuses on providing accessible banking solutions, making it easier for users to manage their finances and access banking services without the need for traditional banks. For more detailed information, visit nicomw.com.

What is a CASH Plus Policy?

A cash plus policy allows you to grow your savings which are made in the form of monthly premium payments. The growth comes in the form of bonuses which are paid on the policy. The policy can run for a term of 12 years or 20 years. The bonuses are paid every 3 years for 12 year policies and every 5 years for 20 year policies. A final lump sum is paid at the maturity of the policy, allowing you to meet your financial goal.

In the unfortunate case that a policy holder becomes deceased while the policy is running, his or her listed beneficiaries receive a payout.

With this policy, you enjoy peace of mind as it drives your discipline in saving while providing growth to your saved funds.
