About OneFamily life insurance

OneFamily is a mutual organisation owned by its members rather than external shareholders. Check the current membership arrangements, company information and product documents at the original source.

Information to compare:

  • Current eligibility and application requirements
  • Cover limits and circumstances in which a benefit is payable
  • Qualifying period and accidental-death terms
  • Exclusions and disclosure requirements
  • Whether premiums are fixed or reviewable
  • Cancellation, missed-payment and paid-up terms
  • The claims process and evidence required

Acceptance and qualifying periods

OneFamily over 50s premiums are competitively priced, typically in the mid-range compared to other providers. Costs vary based on age, smoking status, gender, and cover amount. Premiums are fixed and never increase throughout your lifetime.

Example monthly costs for £5,000 cover:

AgeNon-SmokerSmoker
50£12-18£18-28
60£18-28£28-42
70£35-50£55-80
80£70-100£110-150

Example monthly costs for £10,000 cover:

AgeNon-SmokerSmoker
50£20-30£32-48
60£32-50£50-75
70£65-95£100-150
80£130-190£200-280

Some over-50s products do not ask medical questions, but acceptance remains subject to the provider's stated age, residency and other eligibility criteria.

A qualifying period may apply before full cover begins. Check its length, how death during that period is treated and what amount would be payable under the current policy terms.

No Cash Value

If you cancel the policy, there's no cash value or refund of premiums paid. The policy only pays out on death, making it purely protection insurance, not a savings product. Once you start paying, you're committed to continuing or losing all value.

How OneFamily pricing compares:

OneFamily vs Competitors (Age 65, £10,000 Cover, Non-Smoker)

ProviderMonthly PremiumQualifying PeriodAnnual Cost
SunLife£35-4224 months£420-504
OneFamily£38-4624 months£456-552
Legal & General£40-4812 months£480-576
Aviva£42-5012 months£504-600

Prices are indicative. OneFamily is competitively priced but not always the cheapest. Shorter qualifying period (12 months) with L&G/Aviva may offer better value despite slightly higher premiums.

OneFamily premiums are mid-range - not the cheapest (SunLife often beats them), but competitive compared to major brands. The ethical approach and mutual structure are the key differentiators, not rock-bottom pricing.

Premiums and policy terms

The personalised premium depends on age, smoking status, chosen cover and the provider's current pricing.

For cover intended to continue for life, total premiums may exceed the benefit amount. Compare the total potential premiums with the cover and check what happens if payments stop.

Any discretionary bonus, membership benefit or investment policy can change. Check current details and conditions at the original source rather than treating them as guaranteed.

How LifePro can help

LifePro can compare the policies available from its insurer panel, including eligibility, cover, exclusions, qualifying periods and personalised premiums.

There is no broker fee or obligation to buy. If a policy starts, the insurer pays LifePro commission.
