Life Insurance Riders
Why people choose life insurance riders
A life insurance rider includes optional terms or conditions that are added to the rest of your life insurance policy. While riders may increase premiums, they can offer additional benefits and expanded coverage.
Fidelity Life offers several types of life insurance riders–some are automatically included in certain policies. You may decide on a rider that adds a child insurance, an accidental death benefit, a family accidental death, or return of premium. Additionally, some plans can include an accelerated death benefit rider or have an inflation rider attached.
- Several types of riders are available from Fidelity Life to ensure your coverage is personalized to your needs.
- Some Fidelity Life riders are included with certain policies with no premium increases.
- Certain riders can help expand coverage to your spouse or dependent child(ren).
- Riders can increase a payout if you die in an accident, allow you to access benefits before you die in case of a terminal illness, or help mitigate the impact of inflation.
