Term Life Insurance
Life is full of unexpected twists and turns. While we can’t predict the future, we can plan for it. That’s where life insurance comes in. Term life insurance is a simple way to make sure your loved ones are protected financially if something were to happen to you. It gives you peace of mind today, knowing your family will have support if the worst should happen.
Term life insurance offers level premiums for a specific period of time, usually 10 to 30 years. If you're just starting out, growing your family or planning your future, term life insurance can be a smart and cost-effective way to ensure financial security.
Who term life insurance is designed for
Term life insurance is ideal for people looking for clear, straightforward coverage without the higher cost of whole life insurance. It’s designed to be flexible, affordable and tailored to your current stage of life.
Here are some common situations where term life insurance makes sense:
- Starting a family: When you have children or dependents, term life can provide the financial security your loved ones would need in your absence.
- Buying a home: Many people choose a premium period that aligns with the length of their mortgage to ensure the home can be paid off if they’re no longer around.
- Budget-conscious households: Term life policies tend to have lower premiums than whole life policies, making them easier to fit into a monthly budget.
- Protecting peak earning years: During the years when your income is at its highest, a term life insurance policy can help replace that income if something happens.
Flexible term life coverage options
Your life changes, and your insurance should, too. With term life insurance, you can choose a policy that fits your needs and budget. If you need protection for the next decade or beyond, Amica offers options to help you build the right plan.
Available term lengths
You can choose a term that makes the most sense for your life. Amica offers terms of 10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 years. For example, if your child is eight, a 15-year policy could provide protection until they’re independent. Or, if you’ve just taken out a 30-year mortgage, a 30-year policy could help make sure the home stays in the family if something were to happen to you.
Customizable coverage amounts
You decide how much coverage you want based on your needs, like replacing income, paying off debts or funding future education costs.
Level premium structure
With a term life insurance policy, your premium stays the same for the length of the term. This means:
- Predictable monthly costs: Your premium won’t go up with age or health changes during the term.
- More affordable than whole life: Because it covers you for a set period at a fixed rate, term life is usually more affordable than whole life, which lasts your entire life and keeps the same premium throughout.
Key features
Amica’s term life policies come with some helpful benefits:
- Death benefit: If you pass away during the term, your beneficiaries receive the full policy amount, tax-free.
- Conversion to whole life insurance: For a limited time, you may be able to convert your policy to permanent coverage without a medical exam if your needs change.1
- Accelerated benefits to terminal illness: If you’re diagnosed with a terminal illness, you may be able to access a portion of your death benefit early.
- Streamlined application process: Our process is designed to be simple and straightforward, so you can get coverage with less hassle and more confidence.
