New Business Premium Rules

Two premium modes are available – annual and monthly.

Annual premiums can be paid by credit card or cheque.

  • All cheques should be payable to Foresters Life Insurance Company.
  • Credit cards accepted are either VISA or MasterCard.
  • The first premium for an annual premium policy can be paid by cheque with the application, or by credit card.

Monthly premiums can only be paid by pre-authorized debits from the payor’s bank account.

  • Bank account must be chequing account or savings account with chequing privileges.
  • The monthly PAC date can be any date between the 1st and the 28th.
  • For all PAC policies, a payment must be applied for each calendar month that the policy is in force. So, for example, if a policy is issued on January 25th, then the first PAC payment will be applied for January, the second PAC payment will be applied for February, and so on.
  • For PAC policies, payments start in the second month – applicable on monthly payment plans only.
  • All monthly premiums would be required at the time of issue on a backdated policy.
  • We DO NOT Accept Money Orders for initial premium payments.
