Apply at betterlifequotes.com/apply or book a 30-minute Zoom with our founder. Once you submit your license and basic info, contracting typically takes a few days to a week. No upfront fees, no lock-in contracts, and no production minimums.

What commission level can life insurance agents earn at BetterLifeQuotes.com?

Independent agents can earn up to 155% commission on qualifying products. The exact level depends on your license, experience, and the carrier. Unlike captive agencies and many IMOs, BetterLifeQuotes.com doesn't keep a hidden override.

Do agents own their book of business at BetterLifeQuotes.com?

Yes. Agents own 100% of their book of business. There are no vesting schedules, no clawbacks beyond standard chargebacks, and no contractual restrictions on moving your business if you ever leave.

Can I build my own agency through BetterLifeQuotes.com?

Yes. BetterLifeQuotes.com supports agency builders who want to recruit and build downlines, with access to recruiting tools, training, top compensation, and team-building infrastructure.

What carriers does BetterLifeQuotes.com offer?

34 top-tier life insurance and annuity carriers under one contract, including Allianz, American General, American National, Americo, Ameritas, Assurity, Banner, Columbus, Corebridge (GIWL), F&G, Foresters, John Hancock, Lincoln, Liberty Bankers, LSW, Mass Mutual, Mountain Life, MN Life, MTL, Mutual of Omaha, Nationwide, North American, One America, Oxford, Pacific Life, Pacific Promise, Principal, Protective, Prudential, Royal Neighbors, Sagicor, SBLI, Symetra, and Transamerica.

What life insurance products can agents sell with BetterLifeQuotes.com?

Seven product lines: Term Life, Whole Life, Universal Life (IUL, GUL, VUL), Final Expense / Burial, Long-Term Care, Annuities, and Accidental Death. Agents can choose to specialize or sell across all lines through one contract.

How much commission do independent life insurance agents make?

Independent life insurance agent commissions typically range from 50% to 130% of target premium at most agencies. At BetterLifeQuotes.com, qualifying agents earn up to 155% on select products — significantly above the industry average — because there are no hidden upline overrides and no required production minimums.

What is the difference between an IMO, FMO, and BetterLifeQuotes.com?

An IMO (Independent Marketing Organization) and FMO (Field Marketing Organization) are intermediaries between carriers and agents. Most IMOs and FMOs take an override out of agent commissions. BetterLifeQuotes.com operates as a high-compensation independent platform: agents get direct access to 34 carriers, up to 155% commission, advance payouts, and 100% book ownership without the hidden cuts typical at traditional IMOs/FMOs.

How do I switch from a captive life insurance agency to an independent contract?

To switch from a captive agency (such as State Farm, New York Life, or Northwestern Mutual) to an independent contract with BetterLifeQuotes.com: (1) confirm your current contract has no non-compete or non-solicit restrictions, (2) apply at betterlifequotes.com/apply with your active life license, (3) complete carrier appointments with our 34-carrier lineup, and (4) start writing business under your new contract — typically within a week. You keep 100% of any new business you write.

Are there production minimums or quotas at BetterLifeQuotes.com?

No. BetterLifeQuotes.com has zero production minimums, zero quotas, and no required activity reporting. Agents write at their own pace whether part-time or full-time, and there are no contract terminations for low production.

What are advance payouts on life insurance commissions?

An advance payout means the agent receives up to 9 or 12 months of commission paid up-front when a policy is issued, instead of waiting for monthly as-earned payments. BetterLifeQuotes.com offers advance payouts on qualifying carriers and products, allowing agents to scale their book of business faster.

Do I need experience to join BetterLifeQuotes.com as a life insurance agent?

No prior life insurance sales experience is required. New agents with an active state life insurance license are welcome, and BetterLifeQuotes.com provides training resources, carrier guidance, and a 30-minute Zoom with the founder to support new agents through their first cases.

What is BetterLifeQuotes.com?

BetterLifeQuotes.com is an NGA / IMO hybrid scaling agencies and agents. Because we hold direct-to-carrier IMO contracts with Lafayette Life, we can offer top-of-market compensation. At the same time, our strategic NGA partnerships give you plug-and-play access to a massive portfolio of top life and annuity carriers, offering all agents with at least 6 months of continuous sales up to 155% commissions.

So I built BetterLifeQuotes.com with a mission to democratize compensation, to give every agent with at least 6 months of continuous sales experience up to 155% commission without the pressure, contracts, production requirements, with no strings attached.”
