Stay Flexible with Term Life Coverage

Plan for the Future with 10, 20, or 30-year Term Life Insurance

Term life coverage is the most popular type of life insurance policy in the U.S. thanks to its lower premiums and higher payouts compared to any other type of life insurance. Like all insurance policies, term life insurance comes with its own unique pros and cons, making it a great fit for some and less so for others.

A term life policy is a good option for you if:

  • You are a young couple with a growing family
  • You're a senior looking for more affordable coverage (vs whole life insurance)
  • You want life insurance coverage for only a set term or need mortgage protection

Term Life Insurance Perks

No Medical Term Life Insurance Options

Historically, life insurance medical exams are a pain in the you-know-what and come with lengthy wait times for approval. While some companies offering term life insurance have made medical exams a little easier, some have done away with them completely to better serve their customers with quick and easy no medical term life insurance options.

Guaranteed Death Benefit

We get it… Talking about death makes a lot of people uncomfortable. Unexpected or untimely death, even more so. When you talk about life insurance all day like we do, you learn that talking about death is an unavoidable part of life. With term life insurance protection, you can have peace of mind knowing your family will be taken care of if the unthinkable happens.

Easy to Renew, Convert, or Terminate

Nothing in life is set in stone, so you’ve got to appreciate a plan that gives you options. Most term life insurance policies are set to expire after 10 to 30 years – though many give you the option to renew at an adjusted rate, convert your term life policy into whole life insurance, or terminate your coverage at no cost or penalty.

Term Life Insurance FAQs

What is a term life insurance policy? Expand

A term life insurance policy covers the policyholder for a fixed term and pays out a death benefit if the policyholder dies within the term.

How does term life insurance work? Expand

While level term, yearly renewable, and decreasing term policies differ in duration, renewal, premiums, and benefits, all three types of term life insurance have fixed coverage periods and provide death benefits if the policyholder dies while insured.

What is the difference between term and whole life insurance? Expand

The main difference between term life insurance and whole life insurance is the period of coverage: whole life covers the entire life of the policyholder and term life policies cover the policyholder for a set term (typically 10 – 30 years).

Does term life insurance have cash value? Expand

No. Term life insurance does not have cash value and does not include an investment or savings vehicle.

What happens to term life insurance if you don't die? Expand

Nothing. Term life insurance is like a life raft, not a savings account. If you don’t die during the term of your policy, you (and your family) don’t receive any payouts or refunds.

There are, however, return of premium (ROP) riders you may be able to add to your term life policy.

Is term life insurance worth it? Expand

YES! In our admittedly biased but 100% correct opinion, term life insurance is worth the investment – if it’s the best life insurance policy for you, your family, and your life.
