What are the benefits for you?

Constant cover

The insurance amount stays the same throughout the policy term, ensuring full loan repayment cover regardless of the decreasing loan balance. This predictability guarantees that the borrower's debt will be covered fully at any point during the loan term.

Convertible cover

After the loan is repaid, the policy can transition into a whole-life cover without additional health checks. This feature provides ongoing life insurance benefits, extending the policy's value beyond debt repayment.

Beneficiary Benefits

If the insurance payout exceeds the loan balance, the surplus is passed to a designated beneficiary. This allows the policy to not only secure debt repayment but also to support the borrower's family financially after their passing.

Simplified Enrollment

Designed for simplicity, these policies are easy to understand and apply for, often integrated into the loan process. This streamlined approach makes securing cover convenient, encouraging wider use and understanding.
