In 2016, a Chinese woman named Wu purchased a 'love insurance' policy for 199 yuan (about US $28) as a gift for her boyfriend Wang. The policy promised a payout of 10,000 yuan (approximately US $1,400) or 10,000 roses if the couple married within ten years after the policy's third anniversary. After officially registering their marriage in 2025, Wu became eligible for the payout, opting for cash over roses. The product was discontinued in 2017, but existing policies remain valid. Wang has submitted the claim and awaits confirmation.
