This is a yearly renewable, non-participating term plan that provides protection for all stages of cancer. It offers financial aid to help you and your loved ones handle the high costs of being critically ill, including the assurance of life insurance coverage with a lump sum death benefit of S$5,000.

You can choose a sum insured of S$50,000, S$100,000 or S$200,000. Upon diagnosis of cancer of the life insured after the waiting period, we will pay 100% of your selected sum insured.

After we pay out either the cancer or death benefit, the policy ends.

If no claims have been made during the policy term, a no claim discount will be applied to your subsequent renewal premium

This plan covers most types of cancer but exclusions may apply, to find out more about the exclusions please refer to Cancer Insurance Provisions.

As long as no claims have been made during the previous year policy term, a no claim discount equivalent to 6% of the total premium paid for the previous year policy term will be applied to the renewal premium. You will be informed 30 days in advance if the no claim discount was revised.
