I’m looking for a Life Insurance quote
On 28 June 2018, Budget Direct temporarily stopped offering life insurance quotes to new customers.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause you.
Budget Direct will resume offering life insurance to new customers in the near future.
I’m a policyholder
Though we’ve temporarily stopped offering cover to new customers, existing policyholders will continue to be covered.
Also known as a ‘death benefit’, Life Cover can pay you or your beneficiaries a benefit if you die or are diagnosed with a terminal illness that results in a life expectancy of less than 12 months.
- Lump-sum benefit of up to $1 million (depending on your age when you apply)
- Advance payment of up to $10,000 to help cover funeral costs and other expenses
- Cover automatically increased each year to keep pace with rising living costs
- Guaranteed cover until the age of 100, regardless of changes in your health, occupation or leisure activities.
