CDS Launches Affordable Insurance Offering

Wilko sign
  • Retailer, which is the parent brand of The Range, wilko and Homebase, will support families with affordable insurance
  • Cover offered across home contents, pets, gadgets, household bills and more

Leading retailer, CDS Superstores, is using its expertise in all aspects of families’ everyday lives to launch a new insurance offering across The Range and wilko. 

The insurance aims to ensure customers can affordably face whatever life throws at them,  knowing that even the worst-case scenario is taken care of thanks to flexible, customisable coverage options. 

The Range will provide insurance covering pets, including maximum benefits options, home contents, gadgets (with worldwide cover included as standard), travel for hassle free holidays, and even bill protection, ready for when the unexpected strikes. 

Furry friends are also protected via pet insurance from wilko, which also has comprehensive gadget and home contents insurance packages available to help safeguard vital technology like phones and tablets, along with everything that makes a house a home. 

The coverage offered by each service across both brands is fully customisable, with scalable options available based on the excess and coverage selected. 

For example, home contents coverage via The Range can cost as little as £3.40 per month to cover £5K of valuables. 

Meanwhile, pet insurance from wilko could be just £17 per month and cover a furry friend’s medical needs up to a financial cap of £4K.  

Alex Simpkin, CEO at CDS Superstores, trading as The Range and wilko, said: “This launch is the kickstart for our wider insurance offering, which will offer an affordable way for families to feel financially secure in case of unexpected events in their lives. 

“We know that a mishap or unwanted news can have a devastating impact on a family’s financial and emotional well-being, and we aim for our insurance packages to provide a reliable and high-value safety net. 

“By introducing comprehensive insurance products, via The Range and wilko, we are furthering our commitment to supporting our customers in every aspect of their lives, providing them with the peace of mind that they are protected.”
