Common questions about life insurance calculators
How much life insurance do I need?+
It depends on your income, outstanding liabilities, dependents and future goals such as education and marriage. The Needs Calculator and Coverage Gap Analyzer both walk through this step by step.
Does the premium calculator give an actual insurer quote?+
No. The Premium Estimator gives an educational, indicative range only. Actual premiums depend on the insurer, underwriting, medical history, occupation and lifestyle.
Can I rely entirely on an online insurance calculator?+
Calculators are a useful starting point for understanding your protection needs, but they are not a substitute for a full review with an insurance professional.
How often should I review my life insurance?+
Generally after major life events — marriage, a child, a new loan, or a significant income change — or at least once every few years.
