Performance Guarantee & Content Requirements
What Car4Less's performance guarantee covers (the guaranteed funding provision), why you are not a party to it, and what the content requirements demand.
Two different things share this topic. The content requirements are yours: what must be created, posted and shared, how often and in what form. The performance guarantee is Car4Less's: a contingency policy that Car4Less holds with its own underwriters, for which Car4Less pays a single premium covering the overall risk, not a premium per vehicle sold. It guarantees the R3 000 funding provision behind the plan, according to its policy terms, and is exercised only if Car4Less chooses to.
You pay nothing towards that policy, you are not a party to it and you have no claim under it. Guaranteed funding does not mean automatic cash-back: your cash-back is conditional on your participation and discretionary, resting on the PSP's terms and Car4Less's final ex gratia decision, not on the policy. This topic also covers whether partial compliance counts (it does not).
Performance Guarantee & Content Requirements — questions
The questions people ask about performance guarantee & content requirements, answered plainly.
What is the Car4Less Performance Guarantee?
+
It is a performance guarantee policy, a contingency policy, that Car4Less holds with its own underwriters. It guarantees the R3 000 funding provision behind the Payment Saver Plan, according to its policy terms. Car4Less pays a single premium for the overall risk, not a premium per vehicle sold, and the policy is exercised only if Car4Less chooses to. It is Car4Less's policy, not the customer's: you pay no premium, are not a party to it and have no claim under it.
Is the Performance Guarantee insurance for me, and can I claim under it?
+
No. The performance guarantee is Car4Less's own contingency policy with its underwriters, and what it guarantees is Car4Less's funding provision, not a payment to you. The participant pays nothing towards it, is not a party to it and has no claim under it; whether it is ever exercised is Car4Less's decision alone. The Payment Saver Plan itself is a non-insurance product and most definitely not a policy.
What is qualifying content, and why does it matter?
+
Qualifying content is approved Car4Less content, published three times a day on each of Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and LinkedIn, every day, after Car4Less has approved each post. It must also meet the plan's requirements for format, timing and verification. These requirements set the participation standard that must be met in full before a participant can be considered for the cash-back.
Can partial compliance qualify?
+
No. The requirements are all-or-nothing: the prescribed participation must be completed in full. Meeting most of the content requirement, or meeting it irregularly, may mean you are not considered for the cash-back. The Terms & Conditions set out the detail.
Does the Performance Guarantee guarantee my monthly vehicle instalment?
+
No. What it guarantees is the R3 000 funding provision behind the plan, according to its policy terms; it does not cover your instalment. Your instalment continues to be paid by debit order to the bank in the usual way, and you remain responsible for it. That performance guarantee is a contingency policy Car4Less holds with its underwriters, according to its policy terms; you pay no premium, are not a party to it and have no claim under it. Any cash-back is conditional on your participation and discretionary: Car4Less makes the final ex gratia decision.
Does the Performance Guarantee guarantee R3 000?
+
It guarantees the R3 000 funding provision, not a payment to you. The funding provision is guaranteed by Car4Less's performance guarantee. Your cash-back itself is conditional on your participation and discretionary: Car4Less makes the final ex gratia decision. That performance guarantee is a contingency policy Car4Less holds with its underwriters, according to its policy terms; you pay no premium, are not a party to it and have no claim under it. Guaranteed funding does not mean automatic cash-back: any payment is up to R3 000 a month, subject to the plan's terms.

The Car4Less Payment Saver Plan (PSP) is a non-insurance product and most definitely not a policy: you buy no policy, hold no policy and pay no premium. It is not an investment, bank deposit, interest-bearing product, dividend programme or a programme that promises income, and it does not change your finance agreement with the bank. Finance for a Programme Car is arranged exclusively through the Car4Less finance application; cash purchases are not permitted and private finance is not accepted. Any payment referred to in connection with the PSP is an ex gratia payment of up to R3 000 a month, made subject to the written Payment Saver Plan agreement, the current PSP Terms & Conditions and the final determination of Car4Less in its sole discretion; the participant has no recourse. Any cash-back is paid into the participant's Mastercard rewards card, issued and administered by a regulated provider. Examples are provided for explanatory purposes only and do not create or extend any entitlement. The R3 000 funding provision is guaranteed by a performance guarantee (a contingency policy) that Car4Less holds with its underwriters, according to its policy terms; participants pay no premium, are not party to it and have no claim under it. Guaranteed funding does not mean automatic cash-back: any cash-back remains conditional on the participant's participation and discretionary. The current Terms & Conditions remain the controlling document and prevail in the event of any inconsistency with this knowledge centre. Read the Terms & Conditions →
