# Does TELUS Bill Payment Protection Include Life Insurance?

Kind of — but not in the way most people think of life insurance.

TELUS Bill Payment Protection includes a **Death Benefit**, but it is **not a traditional life insurance policy**.
That means it doesn't provide a large cash payout to family members or beneficiaries like a standalone life insurance policy would.

###### So what does it do?

If the insured person passes away while their coverage is active, a Death Benefit may be available under the Bill Payment Protection plan, subject to the policy terms and eligibility requirements.

The benefit is designed to help with eligible TELUS mobile bill payments covered by the plan.
