Types of Life Insurance Offered

Colonial Penn primarily offers simplified issue whole life policies, which do not require a medical exam but involve higher premiums than fully underwritten term policies. The main options are:

  • Whole Life (simplified issue)
  • Term Life (available through partner carriers)

How Coverage Amount Affects Price

The death benefit you select directly impacts the premium. A $10,000 policy will cost less than a $50,000 policy for the same applicant profile. Most agents provide a quote table that shows incremental cost per $1,000 of coverage.

Where to Get Accurate Quotes

To obtain a reliable estimate, use Colonial Penn's online quote tool or contact a licensed agent. Have your personal details ready—date of birth, smoking status, and desired coverage amount—to receive a tailored figure.
