Get Protected
We introduce you to an FCA-authorised life insurance adviser who can explain your options
Excellent
Go from, I need protection, to I’m protected!
We act as an introducer only, connecting you with UK based, FCA-authorised life insurance advisers who can explain how life insurance works.
Protect what matters
Each year in the UK, an estimated 26,900 parents die leaving dependent children — roughly one family every 20 minutes. This means more than 46,000 children are newly bereaved of a parent every year, and around one child in every average classroom has experienced the loss of a parent or sibling.
Many people choose to look into life insurance as part of their wider financial planning, as it can help provide financial support for loved ones in the event of death.
I’m Protected is an introducer-only service. We do not provide advice or arrange insurance. Our role is to help you understand your options and, if you wish, introduce you to FCA-authorised firms who can provide regulated advice and help you decide whether life insurance is right for you.
We believe that access to clear information and regulated support can make difficult times a little easier to navigate.

What is Life Insurance?
Life insurance is designed to pay out a lump sum if the person insured dies during the policy term. The money is paid to the beneficiaries named in the policy.
There are different types of life insurance and options available. A regulated adviser can explain how these work, what may be available to you, and whether life insurance is suitable for your circumstances.
What is Critical Illness cover?
Critical illness cover is a type of insurance that may pay out a lump sum if the policyholder is diagnosed with a specified illness and meets the policy definition during the policy term.
Cover, conditions, and eligibility vary between providers. A regulated adviser can explain how critical illness cover works and whether it’s appropriate for you.
What is Income Protection?
Income protection is a type of insurance designed to provide a regular income if you’re unable to work due to illness or injury.
If a valid claim is accepted, the policy may pay a monthly amount for a set period or until you’re able to return to work, depending on the terms of the policy.
Income protection policies typically pay out after a chosen waiting period if you’re unable to work due to a covered illness or injury. The amount paid is usually a percentage of your income, rather than a fixed lump sum, and can be established on either a level basis, where the benefit amount would stay the same, or on an increase (linked to inflation) basis.
Policy features, definitions, and eligibility vary between providers. A regulated adviser can explain how different options work and what may be available based on your circumstances.
Is the advice provided by I’m Protected?
No, we only offer an introduction, we do not:
✖ Give life insurance advice
✖ Recommend policies or providers
✖ Compare quotes or prices
✖ Arrange or sell insurance
I’ve heard life insurance doesn’t always pay out — is that true?
There’s a common perception that life insurance doesn’t pay out, but industry data suggests otherwise. According to the Association of British Insurers (ABI), the vast majority of life insurance claims are paid each year.
Claims can be affected by factors such as inaccurate or incomplete information provided during the application process. A regulated adviser can explain how policies work, what insurers expect, and answer any concerns you may have.
Can I do everything online?
Some people prefer an entirely online experience, while others value speaking to a real person — especially when discussing long-term financial protection.
Because life insurance applications can involve health and lifestyle information, many insurers offer support from trained advisers to ensure details are completed accurately. If you choose to proceed, you’ll be introduced to an FCA-authorised firm who can guide you through the process.
Calls may be recorded by the authorised firm for training and monitoring purposes.
How are we paid?
We may receive a referral fee or commission from the adviser if you proceed with a policy following our introduction. This does not affect the price you pay. Our introduction service is free to use.
Making every
introduction count
For every successful introduction we make, we donate £1 to Cancer Research UK.
It doesn’t matter whether you go on to take out a policy or not — if we successfully introduce you to an FCA-authorised adviser, we’ll make the donation.
It’s our way of giving back, supporting vital research, and doing something positive with every introduction we make.
Because helping people should go hand in hand with helping a bigger cause.
