How term life insurance works
Choose coverage and term: You decide on the face value (the amount paid to your beneficiaries) and the length of the policy, which can range from 10 to 40 years. Many people choose a term that aligns with their financial obligations, such as the length of a mortgage or until their children become financially independent.
Pay premiums: You make regular payments, typically at a fixed rate, for the duration of the policy term.
Death benefit payout: If you die while the policy is active, your beneficiaries will receive the death benefit, usually as a tax-free lump sum. The money can be used for funeral costs, household expenses, mortgage payments, or a child's education.
End of term: If you outlive the policy term, the coverage expires, and no payout is made. You may have the option to renew the policy, convert it to permanent coverage, or purchase a new policy.
