Principal Now Requiring Drop Ticket for Most Term Cases

Beginning April 1, 2021, Principal’s excellent drop ticket system must be used for all Term application submissions up to the maximum applicable Accelerated Underwriting face amount ($3 million for issue ages 18-40; $2.5 million for issue ages 41 and older). Note: Paper applications will NOT be accepted where drop ticket is required.

Principal’s online drop ticket system is quick, easy and in many cases will not require an exam for qualifying candidates when combined with their Accelerated Underwriting system. 

Please click below for a full list of exceptions. Contact your brokerage manager for more information.

 

Speed Up Your Term Business with Drop Ticket

Submitting a life insurance app with Principal is now faster and easier than ever! You can complete a Principal application with no paperwork using the online iGO drop-ticket process which is available for all term cases, all ages and all face amounts. Works even better when paired with Principal's Accelerated Underwriting and delivery features.

You can run a quote and electronically submit a life insurance interview request by completing basic client data, with a step-by-step wizard guiding you the entire way. Once your request has been submitted, the client will complete the application online or over the phone. A fully completed application packet is emailed to the client for electronic signature and then submitted to underwriting for review.

 

Get Faster Approval with Principal's Accelerated Underwriting

Accelerated underwriting (AU) offers an expedited process that can deliver approvals in as little as 24 hours. It’s available to your clients ages 18-60 who apply for any of Principal's life insurance products with face amounts up to $2.5 or $3 million (depending on age). Those that meet the qualification guidelines automatically start out with accelerated underwriting.

Offering this innovative option to your clients can benefit your bottom line. In fact, one in two individuals indicate they’re more likely to buy life insurance through accelerated underwriting. And it offers the following benefits, too:

  • More satisfied clients who get coverage without the inconvenience of labs or exams.
  • Smarter process that leverages digital health data (DH) whenever possible.
  • Easier access with no separate AU checklists to complete or requests to submit.
