Your money, your choice

A policy that pays out
when you need it — or
pays you back when you don't.

If no claim has ever been paid on your policy, you are not locked in for life. From your fifth policy year, you can choose to surrender your cover and receive every premium you have ever paid, plus a fixed 3% annual interest for every year you held it.

Once cashed out, the policy closes. You are free to open a new one at any time.
