Econet Wireless Zimbabwe's funeral assurance scheme, EcoSure, has registered significant growth in the past few months with indications that since 2015, more than 1 500 burial societies in Bulawayo have joined the scheme. Godwin Mashiri said the scheme was growing from strength to strength especially in Bulawayo.

Mashiri said the reason why they had engaged burial societies was because they wanted to complement them. The firm has partnered a number of service providers such as Nuffield, Doves, Fidelity, Kings and Queens among others to roll out the product.

The company has also roped in more than 500 agents who will be facilitating claims.

EcoSure offers two payout options in the event of death, either through nominating a relative who will receive the money in their EcoCash account or through a chosen service provider.
