Credit Life and Credit Disability Insurance (or Payment Protection) is an insurance coverage that is offered to members who are making a loan at the Credit Union. This optional coverage is available for signature, collateral, home equity, credit card or other available loans. Coverage is offered to all eligible members at the time of the loan, and premiums are included in the loan payment. Premiums are available as single or monthly outstanding balance.
Credit Life Insurance
Credit life insurance helps pay off the loan if the member should die. Credit Life is also available as "Joint" coverage, insuring both the member and the co-debtor. This coverage is designed to help members protect their loved ones from excessive debt in the case of death.
Why choose LIFE protection?
- Leaves your family an asset instead of a liability in the event of the borrowers death
- Gives the borrower peace of mind
- Charges premium for only the amount of insurance that is needed to pay off the loan
- Easier and more convenient to access than Term-life insurance
Credit Disability Insurance
Insurance helps make the member's payments if he/she becomes disabled and is unable to work. Coverage is available to the main debtor only, and insures against both injury and illness. Benefit payments are made directly to the Credit Union and are not taxable. Benefits are made in addition to any other coverage the member may have in place. This coverage not only protects loved ones, but also helps to protect the member's credit rating.
Why choose DISABILITY protection?
- Protects your valuable credit score in the event of a protected illness or injury that keeps you from working.
- Disability policies through your employer pay 70% or less of your salary while you are off due to a long-term disability.
- At the time of disability, you will need your salary to pay for your regular cost of living, plus medical expenses.
- If you are financing at 100%, do you have savings to fall back on in the event of an illness or injury?
