Why Choose Insurance Me For Life
Comparison across 9 Australian insurers, transparent pricing, and genuine support when you need it most. General advice from a licensed authorised representative.
There are several ways to buy personal insurance in Australia: directly from a single insurer's website, through a comparison aggregator, through a fully advised brokerage, or — like IMFL — through a general-advice authorised representative who compares across a panel and walks the application through with you. Each route has trade-offs. Going direct is fast but gives you only one insurer's view. Aggregators show price but rarely product detail or claims practice. Personal-advice brokerages produce a Statement of Advice but often charge a fee. IMFL sits in the general-advice space: factual product information across nine insurers, no fee to you, commissions disclosed up front in the Financial Services Guide.
The panel covers AIA, Zurich, TAL, OnePath, ClearView, NEOS, Encompass, Acenda, and Futura — broad enough to surface meaningful price and product variation, concentrated enough that we know each insurer's underwriting and claims behaviour. Premiums you pay through us are the same as buying direct: insurers build commission into the premium structure regardless of the channel, so there is no markup. The sections below set out exactly what we do, how we are paid, and how the broker route compares to going direct on a feature-by-feature basis.
We provide general advice only — that means factual product information without a personalised recommendation that considers your full financial situation. If your circumstances are complex enough to warrant personal advice and a Statement of Advice, we will say so and refer accordingly. To start a comparison priced for your circumstances, generate an indicative quote in about three minutes or book a call.

Key Insight: Insurance premiums are the same whether you buy through a broker or directly from the insurer. Commission is built into the premium structure by insurers themselves. The difference is that with a broker, you get expert advice, comparison shopping, and ongoing support at no extra cost.
How Are We Paid?
Transparency is important to us. Here's exactly how we earn commission:
Commission from Insurers
When you purchase a policy through us, the insurance company pays us a commission. This commission is:
- Paid by the insurer, not by you
- Already factored into the premium price
- The same regardless of who you buy from
- Fully disclosed to you before purchase
Commission Structure
Initial Commission
Typically 60-110% of first year premium, paid when your policy is issued
Trail Commission
Typically 10-20% of annual premium, paid while your policy remains active
Our Commitment
While different insurers pay different commission rates, we present all options fairly and allow you to choose based on price, features, and insurer reputation—not our commission. Our goal is to help you find the right coverage, not maximize our earnings.
