Associated Fees

Fabric indicates their fees when they give you an offer of coverage before you accept. Besides that, no other listed fees exist for using Fabric’s services. In fact, the extra tools and resources — like the will creation help — are free. When required, the medical exam is also typically free.

Life Insurance Policies and Pricing

Fabric claims their life insurance policies are affordable, but the premiums vary based on things like your age, lifestyle, gender, term length, and desired coverage amount. The terms are 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 years (shorter in some states). Coverage caps out at $5 million.

Although it’s hard to estimate the exact pricing, here’s an example of what a healthy 35-year-old male could expect to pay per month for a 10-year term:

$16.72 for $250,000
$30.54 for $1 million

Fabric is transparent about the pricing for its add-ons. For example, Accidental Death Insurance costs:

$6 a month for $100,000
$15 a month for $250,000
$30 a month for $500,000

How to Get Life Insurance Through Fabric

Start by filling out a short online questionnaire that helps customize your experience. Then, head over to the application — this takes around 10 minutes to complete and can be done on a computer or mobile device.

On the application, be prepared to answer questions about your personal, health, and professional circumstances. The first series of questions will help Fabric determine whether you need a will or life insurance. These include:

Whether there are minors in the house (under the age of 18)
If you have a mortgage
What other debts you have

After this, you’ll need to create an account to save your progress. Then, you’ll be asked a series of questions specific to your lifestyle and overall health, such as:

Your first and last name
Gender assigned at birth
SSN
Birthplace
Location
Whether you participate in extreme sports
If you’ve recently flown an aircraft

This section can take several minutes to complete as there are quite a few questions. Once you’ve done it, simply digitally sign the application and wait for Fabric to contact you. Depending on your answers, you may receive an instant offer or need to speak with an underwriter. The underwriter will ask additional questions to help them decide whether to offer coverage, how much, and at what premium.

At this point, a medical exam may be required. In this case, you’ll need to schedule it via phone or email. Scheduling tends to be flexible to work with your work and home life. Fabric will send a health examiner to your home at the appointed time. The examiner will then perform a physical and potentially take a blood sample.

Finally, Fabric will evaluate your entire application and make an offer — or not —, depending on your results. You’ll have up to 60 days to accept the offer before it expires.

Fabric does not provide life insurance in all states. If they don’t offer it in your area, they can connect you with a trusted partner.

FAQ’s

Is it possible to get life insurance without a medical exam?

Typically, you’ll need to take a health exam (physical and blood draw) to receive coverage. However, Fabric will approve some applicants for coverage without requiring a health exam. If they do require an exam, it will be free and scheduled around your needs.

Does Fabric offer whole life insurance, too?

It may be possible to convert a term life insurance policy to a whole life insurance policy. This does not require a complicated second application process.

How long is an offer for life insurance valid?

Once you apply for coverage and are approved, you’ll receive an offer prior to purchasing the plan. In most cases, you’ll have up to 60 days to accept the offer or customize it to your budget and needs.

As a customer-focused company, Fabric offers several ways to contact them — phone, live chat, and email. They have fast response times and friendly, reliable customer service. If you contact them outside of business hours, a representative will reach out within 1 to 2 business days.

Privacy & Security

Fabric has a straightforward privacy and security policy that clearly outlines the ways they collect and use customer data. The company uses data encryption methods and secure servers to keep all information safely stored on their site.
