Things to know about term life insurance

What is the difference between term life and whole life insurance?


Term life covers you for an amount of time you select—such as 10 or 20 years—for a benefit amount you select. Term is typically the most affordable and simple type of life insurance coverage. Whole life is a permanent life insurance that
covers your entire lifetime, often with fixed premiums and a cash value.

How much term life coverage do I need?


Typically, you'll need coverage of 10 to 12 times your annual income. Consider how much loved ones may need for essential expenses like a mortgage and even future goals like college. Get a quote to estimate your needs and your cost.

How long should my coverage last?

Frequently asked questions

  • Is term life insurance right for me?
    Term life insurance covers individuals for a specific amount of time, for a predetermined dollar amount. This coverage serves as a safety net for a period of years and can provide financial security to those you love if something happens to you. Term life insurance is available to those 18 years and older, US citizens, and permanent residents of the United States.
  • What happens at the end of my term or coverage period?
    Term life insurance covers you for a set period or term. If you buy a 10-year term policy, for example, you pay a fixed amount for that period of time and at the end of the 10-year term, you can terminate or lapse your policy. If you choose to extend your policy, your premium would increase significantly.
  • Why do I need a medical exam and who does it?
    In most instances, you will need a medical exam so we can better understand your health and provide you with a personalized rate. The 30-minute exam is conducted by a paramedic professional, is safe, secure, and can be done at a location and time convenient for you at no cost. You can expect blood pressure, weight, and height to be checked. Blood and urine samples will also be collected.
  • If I have a history of medical issues, can I still get a term life insurance policy?
    Yes, you may still be eligible for a term life policy. Medical history is just one factor in determining eligibility for coverage and premium amounts. Your eligibility will be determined through the application and underwriting process.
  • I need to file a claim. How do I notify Fidelity of the death of my loved one who had a term life insurance policy?
