How does Life cover work?

Life Cover pays a one-off payment if:

• you die, or
• you're diagnosed with a terminal illness.

You can apply for as much Life Cover insurance as you need. Special terms may apply for amounts above $15 million. Your financial adviser can help you work out the right amount for you. 

Stepped premiums

We calculate your stepped premiums on each Review Date based on your age and the applicable premium rate at that time. Stepped premiums will usually increase each year as you get older, and also if you increase your sum insured or because of Inflation Proofing increases (if applicable).

Funding options 

Life Cover insurance is available both inside and outside super.

You can apply for these options at an additional cost:

• Business safeguard option: when certain events occur, you can apply to increase your Life Cover for certain business purposes without further medical evidence.
• Terminal illness support insurance: receive a one-off payment if you’re diagnosed with a terminal illness and survive 30 days after you’ve told us.
• You can also apply to add Total and Permanent Disability or Critical Illness extensions to your Life Cover insurance.
