Finance Quick Answers
What is credit life insurance?
Credit life insurance pays off a specific debt or loan
if you are disabled. It is often very expensive in terms
of its annual cost for a similar level of coverage under
a term life insurance policy. Some companies also offer
credit disability insurance, which would cover debt
payments when you are disabled. It, too, is often a very
costly type of coverage compared with similar coverage
under a regular disability policy.
