Products for homeowners

For those with a mortgage, the firm offers life insurance, income protection and critical illness cover. The stated aim is that, in the event of death, critical illness or loss of income, the mortgage and living expenses are covered.

Products for tenants

For tenants, Better Protect offers rental income protection, rental life insurance and rental critical illness cover. In this segment, it works in partnership with its sister company Tenant Shop, in order to offer tenants financial security similar to that of homeowners, covering rent and living expenses for years if the policyholder dies or loses income due to illness.

Distribution model and associated insurer

The broker works exclusively with Legal & General, one of the UK's leading insurers, according to its own presentation. The company states that it takes care of finding the right policy and preventing the client from paying over the odds, simplifying the process of comparing products.

Placing policies in trust

Better Protect offers free help to place any policy purchased through the company in trust. Among the benefits it mentions are certainty over who will receive the benefit, a reduction in inheritance tax and minimising the time taken for the payout to be made.

Presence and structure

The company has its registered office at The Stables, Peper Harow, Godalming, England. Its activity is aimed at the UK market and its website includes quote request and contact forms so that an adviser can call back and detail the available options.
