Why choose Cover Today?

Life shouldn’t be about filling out forms, getting medicals or blood tests, or spending your valuable time waiting around. Unlike other over 50 providers in the market, we want to provide you with cover from day one1. With Cover Today, you can secure easy-to-understand protection  in a matter of minutes, and as long as your application is accepted, your cover will be in place straight away. All you'll have to do is answer a few simple health questions. 

If you choose level cover for your policy, your monthly payments will stay the same throughout your policy3. Our policies also offer whole-of-life cover, which means your cover will be in place for the remainder of your life if you continue to make the monthly payments. Securing Cover Today allows you to sit back and relax knowing that there’s protection there for your loved ones.  

At Cover Today, we won’t make you wait months or years to have protection in place. We are the only over 50s life insurance provider in the UK that has no waiting period1. You can also get a high level of cover with us; depending on your age you can get up to £22,000 in protection. This could help your family with things like funeral expenses or outstanding debts. It could even help you leave behind a gift for the ones you care about most in life.

Some things to think about

  • Please consider the benefit amount you choose, as inflation may reduce its buying power over time. However, you can choose to include the Increasing Benefit Option, which can help protect your policy from some of the effects of inflation
  • If you stop your monthly payments, you will get nothing back and your policy will be cancelled
  • Depending on how long you live, you may pay more for your cover than the final benefit amount. Our cover isn’t intended to be a savings or investment product – it’s there to provide protection if the worst should happen, and you need to consider the value of your cover if you died unexpectedly
