Why term

The simplest way to protect the people who depend on you.

Term life pays your family a tax-free lump sum if you die during the term. It's built for the years when people rely on your income: the mortgage, the kids, the debts.

✓

Price locked for the term

10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 years. Your premium never goes up during the term.

✓

Usually a fraction of permanent

Term typically costs far less than whole or universal life for the same coverage.

✓

Renewable and convertible

Most plans can be renewed or converted to permanent coverage without new medical questions.

Climb or ski in Alberta?

Mountain sports? Get the climber plan.

From Bow Valley sport crags and Canmore ice to Kananaskis scrambles and Rockies ski touring, Alberta climbers are exactly who regular insurers like to exclude. The climber plan combines simplified-issue policies from up to 4 Canadian insurers: up to $2M, no climbing exclusion, no medical exam.

Personal term life

Your policy, your beneficiaries

★★★★★I had good experience with Philip on getting my new insurance policy. Few time it was hard to reach him, but all other time he responded promptly. Overall the customer service was good.

★★★★★Phillip was extremely helpful in getting me fit with the right travel insurance plan, and weighted options for the best prices. Stand up guy. Give him a ring!
BWBeau Williams-OrserGoogle review · June 2026
★★★★★This is big stuff, life insurance. After researching multiple brokers, and training as one myself!… I am SO GLAD I found the right people to work with. I straight up like Philip, of Affinity Life! We’ve had a few really great chats. I bought a policy from Affinity Life, instead if through the firm I was actually working with at the time! If that isn’t an endorsement, I don’t know what is. I’m grateful for all of it. I’m covered, my family is secure, and I still like the decisions I made several months ago. Thanks Philip and Affinity team !! -Kyle, 42, Vancouver

★★★★★I found Philip through one of his YouTube videos, and I’m so glad I did. Everything he said online — his professionalism, transparency, and clear explanations — was exactly what I experienced working with him in real life. From start to finish, the process of purchasing life insurance through Affinity Life was seamless and stress-free. Philip was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to ensure I understood all of my options. No pressure, just honest advice. I felt confident every step of the way, and I truly appreciate the care and attention he put into helping me find the right policy. Highly recommend! — Mitchell Holmes

★★★★★Philip Setter was an absolute treasure to work with! He was always an email or phone call away, to explain any questions along the way. Philip was clear, concise, and communicated to my partner and I throughout the process. Thank you so much again Philip! We appreciate your care and professionalism.
EHEvan HolmesGoogle review · May 2025
★★★★★Philip was a pleasure to deal with throughout the process of obtaining my life insurance policy. He was helpful with questions and communicated updates consistently. I'd definitely recommend watching his educational series on life insurance, which were super helpful in my process, and checking in with their options.

CChrisGoogle review · January 2025
★★★★★Phil is great. In a business full of deceptive sales, he sets himself apart by providing very clear and concise insights so you’re able to make an informed decision
NANicholas AntonGoogle review · January 2025
★★★★★Phil was very easy to deal with, he provided educational resources for me to make the best choice for my family, gave me time to internalize the information and followed up in a non invasive manner. While doing so he ended up taking money out of his own pocket by changing my mind on the policy i thought i wanted. I will reach out to him with any and all future insurance needs. 10/10 would do again.
AOAlex OstapenkoGoogle review · November 2024

★★★★★Working with Phil has been such a great experience. He really took the time to understand what we wanted to do and want we want to continue doing.

MSMike SmallwoodGoogle review · April 2023
★★★★★I recently switched to Affinity Life and I couldn't be happier with my decision. One of the things that really impressed me is their commitment to educating their clients. They don't just sell policies, they take the time to explain the different options and help you make an informed decision that's right for you. Their client service is also awesome. Every time I've had a question or concern, they've been quick to respond and super helpful. I feel like they truly care about their clients and want to make sure clients have the coverage they need, not just what will give the best commission. I would highly recommend Affinity Life to anyone looking for life insurance.

★★★★★So glad that I found this website and was able to purchase life insurance for myself without having to talk to a salesperson. The process was quite easy and I didn't feel pressured at any point by the customer service reps. I would definitely recommend it to families looking for life insurance but don't want to have an advisor sales pressure them.
MBMonica BennettGoogle review · May 2021
★★★★★I would recommend this company 100%! After the birth of our second child, we decided that it was important to get life insurance. I had been hesitant to get insurance but was convinced by my partner that it was important. I found the website easy to use and convenient to do on our own time and pace. I enjoyed the low pressure experience that was also surprisingly informative. It was nice to feel in the "drivers seat" throughout the entire experience.
MBMelanie BodhiGoogle review · April 2021

★★★★★Philip was helpful for securing life insurance. He was able to answers questions I had during the application process and provide helpful guidance as to what would work best for my situation. However, I did find that once my insurance was set up, he lacked communication. I had a question regarding the signing of the contract, and never heard back even after a follow up email.

Questions

Term life FAQ.

How long should my term be?

Match it to your biggest obligation: often until the mortgage is paid off or the kids are independent. 20 and 25-year terms are the most common for young families.

How much coverage do I need?

A common starting point is 10 years of income plus your debts, minus savings and existing coverage. Use the calculator above, or ask Philip.

What happens when the term ends?

You can usually renew at a higher price, convert to permanent coverage, or let it end if you no longer need it.

Is the payout taxable?

No. Life insurance death benefits paid to a named beneficiary are generally tax-free in Canada.
