Do I need life insurance?

Family life is hectic and when you’re being pulled in ten directions at once, it’s easy to put off the big things – like protecting what matters most. That’s why it’s important to make smart choices and plan ahead while you can. Our cover is designed to help protect family life. If you’re a UK resident aged 18 to 64, you can apply for up to £750,000 of Family Life Insurance. This could support your kids, help pay the mortgage, or help to pay off other debts if the worst happened to you. 

No two families are the same, so we provide personalised cover for your needs and budget. Applying is easy. You can only get our cover from us, so you don’t have to deal with complicated comparisons, long forms, medicals, or blood tests. We just ask a few health and lifestyle questions. With cover from day one1, you can feel confident that you’re protecting the life you’ve built, the Smart way.
