    The new bundles – Companion Core, Companion Pro and Companion Lux – have been designed to meet different customer needs and budgets while ensuring value at every level:

    • Companion Core (R89/month): Essential safety and savings, including armed and medical emergency response, 24/7 roadside assist, windscreen chip repair, licence and fines assist, discount vouchers, and access to HeyNetstar personal assistant services.
