What life insurance policies does Vitality offer?

Vitality offers both term life insurance (decreasing term and level term) as well as whole of life insurance. Term life insurance is the cheaper of the two and Vitality offer cover between 5 and 70 years. If you die during the policy term, your loved ones will receive a lump sum. Whole of life insurance policies last your entire life so your family is guaranteed a payout. The policy ends when you pass away. 
 

Why choose Vitality’s term life insurance? 

  • Affordable cover – get up to 30% off your first year’s premiums when you add Optimiser to your plan. 
  • Trust – Vitality is a brand you can trust and last year they paid out 99.5% of life insurance claims.
  • Rewards – get access to Vitality partner discounts and rewards. 
  • Free cover before approval – while your application is being assessed, Vitality will give you free cover. Available when you take out the comprehensive option. 
 

Why choose Vitality’s whole of life insurance?

  • Peace of mind in knowing that your loved ones will get a guaranteed payout when you die.
  • Your plan’s cash value can be a source of tax-free funds during your lifetime.
  • Help your family from overpaying on inheritance tax.
 
Vitality offers three different whole of life insurance policies: 
 
  • Traditional whole of life insurance – gives you a basic annual premium which you can choose to keep the same over time.
  • Whole of life insurance with Premium Step – get an upfront discount of up to 40%. Certainty for your future premiums with an annual 2.5% fixed premium change.
  • LifestyleCare Cover – cover you can use early if you look after yourself due to illness like dementia.
