How it works
- Lump sum payout – on your death at least one year after the plan starts provided the plan is still in force
- You make monthly payments – your payments are fixed and will never increase
- Stop payments when you reach age 90 – but your cover continues for the rest of your life
Important information
- The plan has no cash-in value at any time.
- To apply you need to be a permanent UK resident aged 50-80.
- Once your plan starts, the amount of cover doesn't change. This means it won't keep up with inflation, and will buy less in the future.
- You should review your cover regularly to make sure it’s enough to offset any rise in the cost of living.
- If you die within 12 months of starting your plan, it may only pay out what you’ve paid in.
- Depending on how long you live, you may pay more in premiums than the cash sum payable on death.

Example of commission
The term of the policy cannot be determined at the start date, therefore the example shows the maximum commission payable on a policy for a 50 year old on a plan with a premium of £15 a month over 43 months. The commission figure is not paid directly by you - you only pay the monthly premium quoted and this covers the cost of commission.
- Payment each month £15
- Commission £527.37
For details of the actual amount of commission that would be payable on your plan, please contact Standard Life Direct on 0845 278 5636.
