When does Yokahu pay?

Our policies and payouts are different in every country, so we explain and ensure you understand your policy fully at the point of sign up.

The key thing you need to know is that when a hurricane hits, Yokahu pays you based upon two simple things:

1. The location you give us when you sign up (your home) must experience hurricane strength winds (74mph+). If you do not experience hurricane strength winds Yokahu will not pay.
2. We then pay you based upon the strength of the storm. We categorise hurricanes using 5 Categories:

• Intense
• Very Intense
• High
• Very High
• Extreme

Intense is the lowest category and Extreme is the highest. You will receive payment shown in your policy based upon the classification category of the storm when it affected your insured location. The stronger the storm, the more money we send you.

If you are due a payment, you will receive your money in as little as 24 hours.
