Post Office Over 50s Life Cover is a simple way to leave your loved ones a cash sum gift to settle unpaid bills or help pay for your funeral when you die.
If you’re aged 50 to 80 and a UK resident, you can get cover in place straight away. Just choose how much cover you’d like to leave behind. Depending on your age at the time of your application, you can choose an amount up to £10,000.
When you pass on, your named beneficiary (usually a family member) will make a claim by filling in a claim form. Providing all the conditions are met and supporting information is submitted, we’ll give your payout to them.
If you've bought a policy and you're struggling to keep up with premiums, talk to us. We may be able to reduce them, although this could affect the size of your payout.
We won’t ask about your health when you apply for an Over 50s policy.
Your Post Office Over 50s Life Cover policy continues for the rest of your life.
You need to keep making monthly payments until either:
You can apply for a maximum cash sum of up to £10,000, depending on your age, when applying for cover.
Age at application date | Maximum cover amount |
---|---|
50-69 | £10,000 |
70-74 | £9,000 |
75-80 | £6,000 |
There’s a fixed payment term for Post Office Over 50s Life Cover. You pay to the policy anniversary date after you turn 95 or until you pass away – whichever comes first.
Losing a loved one is a difficult time. The last thing those you leave behind need is a drawn out claims process. When the time comes, we'll make it easy for your representatives to claim the cash sum from your policy.
If you've recently lost someone and need to claim on their behalf, find out more about making a claim on our Life Cover help and support page.

If death by natural causes, in the first 12 months from the policy start date, we will pay 1.5 times the total premiums paid towards the cover.
