What is Over 50s Life Insurance?
Having Over 50s Life Insurance might be the most important thing you can do to help protect the ones you love.
When you die, your policy could provide money for those you leave behind. That could mean less strain on your family’s finances and less worry for them at an already difficult time.
Setting up your My Mutual Guaranteed Over 50s Life Insurance plan is quick and easy online, so you can get back to enjoying life knowing your cover is in place. Plus, once you're covered, your monthly premiums will never go up. You'll have some reassurance knowing your fixed premiums will remain the same.
How our Over 50s Life Insurance works
It’s straightforward.
You just need to pick a cover amount (the amount that we’ll pay out) from £2,000 up to £20,000. You'll be fully covered after 2 years if you keep up your payments. And you’ll have some peace of mind knowing that your loved ones could receive a payment to help towards costs, like funeral expenses or outstanding bills.
Your policy also includes immediate accidental death cover, so your full pay-out could be made if you die in an accident within the first 2 years. Exclusions apply.
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, starting from just 23p a day (quote based on 50-year-old, non-smoker with £2,000 cover).

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.
You could reach your full payout early
What’s more, a proportion of your monthly premium participates in our With-Profits fund, which could allow you to reach your full payout early - if there's growth in the fund.
We'll notify you if you can stop paying a little before your 90th birthday, safe in the knowledge that your cover is fully secure.
Need to stop paying? You can still keep some cover
With us, if you need to stop paying your premiums after a minimum of already paying into your plan for 5 years, your loved ones will still receive a proportion of your cover amount when you pass away.
This feature ensures you still keep some cover - even if you can't continue making payments. The amount they receive is based on what you've paid into your plan and how long it is until your 90th birthday.
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 it's buying power over time.
The cover amount is fixed, so it's real-life value will go down over time because of inflation. This means it’s important to review your cover regularly.
