A life insurance policy is there to make sure that a family has financial protection when the breadwinner passes away. When you take out a life cover policy, you pay a premium every month and, in the event of the life assured’s death, 1Life Insurance pays your beneficiaries, for example your family or other dependants, a lump sum.
Your family can use your life insurance pay-out to survive the loss of your income and provide them with the financial protection they need to live the life you’ve always planned for them. A lump sum pay-out can be used to cover daily living expenses, medical bills and school fees, or to pay off debts, like your house or cars. Your family can also use your pay-out to start building generational wealth by saving and investing for their future and their children’s future.
Anyone who has people who rely on them for financial support needs the protection and peace of mind of life insurance. If your income supports a spouse, children or extended family and elderly parents, and they would not be able to support themselves if you passed away, then you need a life cover policy. Your life insurance pay-out will make sure that your loved ones can meet their monthly living expenses, repay debt, pay off the bond on the family home or cover school fees and medical bills.
The amount of life insurance cover you need depends on your individual circumstances - your life stage, your income, the future needs of your dependants, and of course affordability. With 1Life’s life insurance cover and affordability calculators, you can work out exactly how much life cover you and your family need, as well as how much cover you could qualify for, if you’re currently under-insured.
1Life does not require you to undergo a medical examination. However, we will arrange for you to go for an HIV test. Our innovative HIV saliva testing procedure means that you do not have to go for a blood test.
Your policy may be referred to an underwriter or quality assurer to assess whether to issue the policy and at what premium rate. To qualify for certain cover types, the life assured will be required to go for an HIV test.
1Life reserves the right to require the life assured to undergo certain/specific medical tests as may be deemed necessary based on your risk profile to ensure correct risk is covered. The costs of such medical tests shall be borne by the life assured.
