Standard Life Income Protection quotes now available through Webline
At the launch of our income protection contract in December, quotes for advisers were only available from the Exchange.
From today (20th March), advisers can also obtain quotes through Webline.
An Income Protection Plan (IPP) sales aid has also been created which explains the 50% maximum benefit rule.
It has been designed to help educate advisers on how much income the IPP can provide, once state benefits are added to the monthly income.
The sales aid can also be used directly with end customers, and contains some useful case scenarios.
Mick James, Protection Marketing Manager, Standard Life said: "We have been working hard to make quotes available through other portals and the launch with Webline will enable more advisers to access quotes online".
"With the launch of the sales aid, we are hoping to demystify some views that a 50% benefit is simply not enough to replace lost income".
"The reality is any income from an income protection contract is paid tax free.".
