Our cover options

Life insurance

Life insurance protects your loved ones with a lump sum payout, helping to ensure they don’t suffer financially if you’re not around anymore.

Critical illness insurance

Critical illness cover pays a tax-free lump sum if you’re diagnosed with a serious illness during the policy term. Individual policy cover varies. You choose the cover and how long it runs for, based on what's important to you. Critical illness policies vary by insurer. Cover depends on the conditions listed in the policy and on individual underwriting outcomes.

Insurance you can rely on

Income protection is designed to support you financially if you’re unable to work because of illness or injury. It pays a regular income to help cover essential outgoings while you focus on recovering.
