1. What is life insurance?
clipart
Life insurance is a contract between you and the insurer. You pay a fixed monthly amount (called the premium) and the insurer pays out a lump sum of money (the death benefit) to your beneficiaries (loved ones) when you pass away.
2. Do I need life insurance?

If you have dependents or loved ones, you likely need life insurance. For parents, life insurance provides coverage for your family. First-time home buyers also require insurance for their mortgage. Even if you have life insurance coverage through work, it is often not enough to cover your family's needs (and is tied to staying with your company).

4. What kind of insurance does Dundas Life offer?
We offer a full suite of life insurance products from Canada's top life insurance carriers. This includes term life insurance (suitable for most people), whole life insurance, critical illness insurance, disability insurance, and more.
1. How does Dundas Life work?

We’re a life insurance broker that helps you find the best rates. We compare policies from top life insurance companies and apply for insurance from the comfort of your home.
2. How does Dundas Life make money?
clipart
We get paid a commission by the insurance company for helping you to secure a policy. But don’t worry: commissions are already priced into the price of an insurance policy – you never pay extra to work with us.
4. Is it cheaper to buy life insurance with Dundas Life?
Here’s the deal: you don’t save any money by buying directly from an insurance company. The price is the same through the company, agent or broker.

As a consumer, you win by looking at the entire market. Dundas Life shops around with top insurance companies to make sure you get the best policy for you, and save you money.
