Cover Your Income When Life Throws a Curveball

Income protection pays you a regular monthly amount if you can’t work due to illness or injury — helping you stay on top of bills without the stress.

What is Income Protection Insurance?

Income protection is an insurance policy that replaces part of your income if you’re unable to work for medical reasons.

It pays out a tax-free monthly amount (usually up to 60–70% of your salary) until you’re well enough to return, your policy ends, or you retire — whichever comes first.

This cover gives you breathing room to focus on recovery, without worrying about how to keep up with your mortgage or day-to-day costs.

Things to Consider With Income Protection

Decreasing vs Level Cover
Most choose decreasing cover to match a repayment mortgage — but we’ll explain both and help you decide.

Single or Joint Policy
If you share a mortgage, you can take out a joint policy — we’ll talk through the pros and cons.

Policy Length
Your cover should run for the full mortgage term. We’ll make sure it aligns with your current deal (and any future changes).

Adding Extras
From critical illness to waiver of premium — we’ll break down optional add-ons and whether they’re worth including.

Health and Lifestyle
Your premium will reflect things like age, health, and smoking status. We’ll walk you through every question with clarity and care.
