Simple, affordable term life insurance
We built Ethos to make it faster and easier to get term life insurance. Our approach blends industry expertise, technology, and the human touch to find you the right policy to protect your loved ones.
Personalized coverage
With several term lengths and a wide range of coverage to choose from, your life insurance policy is on your terms. Every policy issued by Ethos includes level premiums, meaning your monthly payment will never increase during your term.
Several term lengths
  • Choose between 10, 15, 20, and 30-year terms.
Flexible coverage
  • Get anywhere from $100,000 to $1.5 million in protection.
Who can apply?
  • Any U.S. citizen age 20 – 65 are welcome to apply.
Bonus
  • All policies issued by Ethos include an accelerated death benefit rider.
What to consider

You can personalize your coverage by 1) choosing your term length and 2) choosing your coverage amount. Here are a couple things to think about:

  • You may want a term length that lasts until you retire, your children are grown and are no longer dependents, your mortgage is paid off, or you reach your savings goals.
  • You may want enough coverage that could cover your income, debt, mortgage, and your children’s college tuition.

Life insurance protects their future.

If you were to pass away, your loved ones don't just lose you, they also lose the financial support you provide. A term life insurance policy can help your family maintain the lifestyle they've grown to love and provide long-lasting financial security. Your family can use the payout to help cover everyday living expenses and just about anything else they need, such as:

  • Funeral costs
  • Mortgage or housing costs
  • Medical expenses
  • Retirement income
  • Your student loans or children's college tuition
  • Debts
