What types of life insurance does Fortify offer?
Fortify offers level and decreasing life insurance, these are known as term life insurance policies. Fortify doesn’t offer whole of life cover.
With level life insurance, the payout will remain the same for the length of the policy. Fortify says it’s usually used to provide a lump sum payment for dependents, or cover an interest-only mortgage or loan.
Decreasing cover will decrease throughout the policy term and Fortify says many people use it to cover a capital and interest mortgage where the amount you owe goes down each year.
It’s possible to take out a joint policy, which may be of interest to people in a relationship or young families.
