Flexible lifestages cover
We've partnered with TAL to offer flexible lifestages insurance as part of your super so you only pay for the cover you need.
Lifestages cover automatically adjusts as you get older. Generally, the amount and cost of your cover is lower when you’re younger, increases as you get older and you have more financial responsibilities, then reduces again as you approach retirement.
When joining AMP Super you can apply for a basic level of death & total and permanent disablement (TPD) and income protection (IP) cover. You just need to answer a few short health and lifestyle questions as part of your online application.
Once you've added insurance you can make instant changes to your level of cover as well as making claims using My AMP on the app or web.
You can find out more in our Insurance Guide.
If you need more insurance cover or you're looking to add insurance to your AMP Super, you can apply online for tailored cover
Tailored cover allows you to apply for a tailored amount of death, TPD or IP cover.
The insurer will need to assess your application and you will need to answer questions about your health and lifestyle.
