What is Over 50s Life Insurance?

Over 50s life insurance allows you to plan ahead and leave behind a fixed tax-free lump sum after you’re gone. Our My Mutual Guaranteed Over 50s Plan is a guaranteed way for anyone resident in the UK, aged from 50 to 74, to leave something behind for their loved ones.

It gives you peace of mind knowing that as long as the plan is up-to-date, they’ll receive a guaranteed lump sum payment that could help towards costs like funeral expenses or to help pay off any other outstanding bills.

You can set up your over 50s life insurance plan quickly and easily online and then get on with enjoying life, safe in the knowledge that your cover is in place.

What is different about Scottish Friendly’s Guaranteed Over 50s plan?

If you need to stop paying you can still keep some cover

With Scottish Friendly, once you’ve paid a minimum of 5 years’ worth of premiums, your loved ones will get a proportion of your cover amount back, when you’re gone, even if you need to stop paying. The amount they will receive is based on what you’ve paid into your plan and how long it is until your 90th birthday.

 

You may reach your full cash benefit early

Some of your premium participates in our With-Profits fund, and growth in the fund could result in us letting you know you can stop paying before age 90 safe in the knowledge that your cover is fully secure.

 

 

 

 

 

£100 Gift Voucher

When you sign up to our Guaranteed Over 50s Life Insurance Plan, and make six premium payments, you’ll get a £100 gift voucher to spend at lots of your favourite UK retailers. No cash alternative is available, and we reserve the right to alter, cancel or withdraw the offer at any time. Read the full terms and conditions.

How does our Over 50s Life Insurance work?

You choose the level of cover that suits you, from £2,000 up to £20,000, with a fixed monthly payment. You'll be fully covered after two years, and as long as you keep up your payments, the policy will pay out the guaranteed lump sum to your loved ones when you die.

Your policy also includes immediate accidental death cover, so your full pay-out will be made if you die in an accident within the first two years.

How much will my Over 50s Life Insurance Plan cost?

It could cost less than you think for the cover you want. Premiums are based on your current age, whether you smoke, and the lump sum amount you choose and start from just 23p a day.

Things to consider

The total paid in premiums could be more than the cash pay-out (depending on how long you live).

This is not a savings or investment product and has no cash in value at any time.

Over 50s Life Insurance plans are not designed to meet the full costs of a funeral and do not guarantee to do so.

As the cash sum is fixed, inflation will reduce its buying power over time.

In the event of your death the policy will be included as part of your Estate, which may be subject to Inheritance Tax.
