With term-life insurance you'll be able to ensure that your loved ones are financially secure and able to cover expenses such as funeral costs, outstanding loans, debts, and ongoing household expenses.

Secure your family's financial future

Term life insurance can be especially important for someone with a new home, as it can help ensure that the mortgage and other related expenses are covered in the event of the policyholder's untimely death.

Owning a home is a significant financial responsibility, and a term life insurance policy can provide the necessary protection to help your loved ones maintain their standard of living and keep the family home if something were to happen to you.

Protect your assets and legacy

Whether you have a successful business, or other significant assets, a term life insurance policy can provide the necessary protection to ensure that those assets can persist or are passed on to your loved ones as intended.

Leave Your Loved Ones Debt-Free

Term life insurance can be an important financial tool for someone with outstanding debts, as it can help pay off those debts in the event of the policyholder's untimely death. Whether you have a mortgage, credit card debts, student loans, or other financial obligations, a term life insurance policy can provide the necessary protection to ensure that your loved ones are not left with the burden of paying off those debts. By choosing term life insurance, you can give your family the peace of mind that comes with knowing their financial obligations will be taken care of, even if something were to happen to you.

What is term life insurance?

Term life insurance is one of the most affordable ways to ensure your family is protected financially in the event of your passing. "Term" is the set amount of time that the insurance will last. To determine the right length of time you would want to consider your financial liabilities; mortgage, loans, debt, and end-of-life expenses. Given this type of insurance is for a set period, if you were to outlive the term you would not receive any return on the premium. Your family would also not receive a death benefit.

Why should I buy term life insurance?

There are multiple reasons someone would prefer to choose term life insurance. The premium prices are much more affordable, if you need something that would protect your family but are on a budget this is the perfect option. It's also great if you have a family with a mortgage, debt, loans, or want to put your kids through college. This is equally important to have if you have shared investments with a serious partner or even a business partner, the policy would help to protect them from financial loss or burden. The length of the policy would reflect how long you would need to protect your loved ones to cover your finances in the event of an unexpected death.

What ages are eligible for your digital term life insurance?

Adults 18-70 years of age may be eligible to purchase online.

How much life insurance coverage do I need?

Consider the obligations and individuals you may want to take care of. Are there debts, including mortgages, that you would like to cover in case you pass away? Dependents like spouses or children who depend on your income for everyday expenses or for education? Funeral and other final expenses? And then reduce that amount by any liquid assets like cash, savings, or other investments that could be made available to loved ones immediately.

You can access the Walnut Life Insurance Calculator to help you understand how much coverage may be suitable.

Will my monthly premiums ever change?

No, your monthly premiums will not change for the length of your term.

How do I set my beneficiaries?

For the RBC Simplified® Term Life Insurance product, the beneficiary is defaulted to the estate in order to streamline the online purchase process. You may change the beneficiary after your policy has been issued by submitting a signed Change of Beneficiary form which will be sent with your policy package in the mail.

What is the maximum amount of term life coverage available?

The maximum amount of coverage available with Walnut is $1,000,000 for clients 55 years of age or younger. Coverage maximum amount of $499,999 is available to clients 56 years of age and older.

Can I get life insurance if I have a serious medical condition?

This greatly depends on what the serious medical condition is. This should not stop you from reaching out to an insurance provider to see if you would qualify. In general, most pre-existing conditions will get a rating, making your premium higher. What is important is to get covered with insurance the sooner the better, because if you do have a medical condition this puts you at greater risk of earlier or an unexpected death.

Can I purchase a policy on behalf of someone else?

In most cases, purchasing life insurance is a decision made by the individual to be insured. At Walnut, you can only purchase on behalf of yourself.

How can I make changes to my insurance policy?

To make changes after the purchase of your life insurance policy you can contact our licensed brokers at cloudinsure.help@gowalnut.com for assistance or contact the insurer, RBC Insurance directly at 1-800-769-2568. Please have the name and policy or confirmation number handy.

How can I cancel my policy?

You can cancel at any time with written notice. Within 30-days after your purchase, you have a risk-free review period where you can change your mind and cancel for any reason and you will receive a full refund. 

After the initial 30-days, you can cancel and any further billing will cease and your coverage will end at the end of the paid period. 

For further clarification, purchasing a term 10 or 20 year policy does not obligate you to pay for the entire term. If the coverage no longer makes sense for you, you can cancel.
