What to compare on

  1. Premium at your age and sum-insured. Quote Partners Life plus two or three other NZ insurers.
  2. Stepped vs level premium structure. Decide between low entry premium that rises with age, or flatter whole-of-life cost.
  3. Terminal illness benefit. Confirm the trigger wording and amount in the policy document.
  4. Future insurability. Ability to increase cover at life events without fresh underwriting.
  5. Exclusions. Read the wording, not the marketing summary.

Where to get a quote

Not personalised financial advice. Mechanical comparison from each insurer's policy wording. Quote with the insurer directly for premiums applicable to your age and sum-insured. Product features may change — verify on the insurer's website.
