*Important Note:
  • The above list will be expanded when more types of payouts are included.
  • Your PayNow profile must be linked to your NRIC/FIN for you to receive payouts from AIA.

There could be a few reasons why we were not able to disburse the payout to you via PayNow:
  • The type of payout is currently not eligible to be disbursed through PayNow; or
  • Your PayNow profile is not linked to your NRIC/FIN; or
  • The payout is not denominated in Singapore Dollars (SGD); or

  • Your policy has an existing Trust Arrangement, the policy owner is an entity or the policy is assigned

The maximum limit is set at S$200,000 per transaction. You will receive a cheque if the payout amount exceeds S$200,000 limit.

No, we will only disburse funds to policy owners who have their PayNow profile linked to NRIC/FIN. This is to ensure that we pay to the right person.

  • You may refer to The Association of Banks in Singapore site for information on the list of participating banks and how to register for PayNow with your NRIC/FIN.
  • If you have not registered for PayNow, please perform a one-time registration and link your NRIC to your PayNow profile.
  • In order to receive payments from AIA via PayNow, please ensure that your PayNow account is linked to your NRIC/FIN.

Understanding Insurance Terms

Term insurance provides temporary life insurance protection for a stipulated period of time. The sum assured of the policy is paid to the beneficiary when death occurs during the stipulated term. Nothing is paid upon the survival of the insured at the end of the stipulated term. Being the cheapest form of insurance, term policies are best suited for those who require insurance protection at the lowest cost, such as fresh graduates with relatively low disposable income. Term policies are not available to children below the age of 16.

Term insurance policies are usually packaged with renewable or conversion privileges.
  • Renewable privilege
    Upon the maturity of a renewable term insurance policy, the insured has the right to renew the policy without having to prove insurability. This means that a new term policy will be issued by the insurance company regardless of the state of health of the insured then. The premiums of the new policy will be based on the then attained age of the insured.
  •  
  • Conversion privilege
    Convertible term insurance gives the policyholder the right to convert a temporary insurance policy to a permanent insurance policy, i.e. a whole life or an endowment policy, without having to prove insurability. This option is particularly important because insurance needs change with time. The premiums of the new policy will be based on the then attained age of the insured.

It offers lifetime insurance protection. You pay premiums throughout your life, but this can be changed to a limited period. It will pay out the insured amount and any bonuses you have built up when you make a claim.

It offers insurance protection and savings. It will pay out the insured amount and any bonuses you have built up when you make a claim, choose to stop the policy or at the end of the policy.

Your premium buys life insurance protection and investment units in a managed fund. Like a unit trust, your money is pooled with that of other investors and invested in short- and long-term investments. The price of your units depends on how the investments in the fund perform. The amount that the plan pays depends on the price of the units at the time you cash it or pass away. You will also get a death benefit.

Life insurance policies are broadly categorised as participating and non-participating policies.
 
Participating policies are policies that entitle the policyholders to share in the profits of the insurance company, in consideration of the additional premiums they contribute. The profits given are generally called bonuses. The benefits from participating policies include a non-guaranteed element (i.e. bonus), which is determined by the performance of the insurance company.
 
Non-participating policies do not share in the profits of the company. An example of a non-participating policy is a term insurance policy.
