One couple were paying $1,224 per year for their existing cover. We had a look at their situation and realised our new policy rates were even better for them than our 20% off switch offer – they ended up paying only $901 per year - that was a 27% saving for the same level of cover.
Another couple had to provide some medical info before they switched to Pinnacle Life. They were paying $363 per month and that went down to $291 per month.They saved nearly $900 in first twelve months alone. Over five years they’ll save well over $5,000.
A customer switched to Pinnacle Life, and decided to keep their premiums the same - so we were able to offer them an extra $150k life cover for the same price.

It depends on your answers to the health and lifestyle questions we have to ask to be able to offer you cover. For many people, we will be able to assess your information online fully, and you will have Life Insurance in less than 10 minutes.
If you aren’t accepted straight away online, we’ll be in touch on the next working day and will let you know the next steps.
If that means we need more information from you, then the process may take another day or two, while if we need information from your GP, it will depend on how quickly your GP responds to our request. Some doctors respond within a week, and others can take two or three weeks or sometimes longer.
So how long it takes depends on several factors, mostly outside of the control of Pinnacle Life, but we do everything we can to make it as easy and simple as we can.
We have a range of tools to help you work out the right amount of cover for your needs. Use our calculator to get an estimate, or find out what level of cover others of your age and gender have asked for. You can also see what other people planning for a similar future to you have looked at.
