With Debt2Capital I am writing business consistently. The process is so simple, the underwriting is very fast and the policies issued and settled the next day.

Many Clients Say Yes To This On Their First Appointment.

And Most Of Them Get Approved On The Same Day.

Getting out of debt is the #1 financial concern for your clients ...And it could be your greatest business opportunity.

Here's how it works.

The system builds a custom presentation for every prospect, from their own numbers. It's easy to say yes to because those numbers prove three things: this gets them out of debt, it leaves them with cash, and they can do it without changing how they live.

Then the application is one click away, and underwriting runs while they're still in the chair.

  1. 1. Their own numbers are on the screen in the first meeting.

    You text them two links. They tap agree, and every debt on their credit file shows up with the balance and the minimum payment. It's a soft pull, so there's no hit to their score, and nobody goes home to dig up statements.

  2. 2. It finds the premium without touching their lifestyle.

    Four questions find money that's already going out the door every month, and that's what pays the premium. The prospect watches you find it. No new money.

  3. 3. It proves they get out of debt and keep the cash.

    First the screen shows how much of their payment is pure interest right now.

    Then it puts two lines on one chart, year by year: their debt going down and the cash in their policy going up. Under it, each of their debts by name with the month it's gone. So they see exactly when cash replaces their debt.

    That cash line is guaranteed values only, no dividends assumed.

  4. 4. The app is one click from that screen, already filled in.

    You're inside the carrier's e-app with the prospect's information in place. They sign it in the same sitting.

  5. 5. Underwriting starts while they're still there.

    The underwriting is rules-based, so the decision doesn't wait on a person. That's how applicants from 25 to 60 can get an instant decision, and if the case is under the carrier's instant-issue limit, there's no exam.

    It's set up to take someone who'd normally get rated, a Table 4, and issue them at standard. So high blood pressure or controlled diabetes can still get an instant yes. Anything it can't score goes to a live underwriter instead of a decline.

  6. 6. You get paid in days, not weeks.

    Approved policies have issued in 24 hours.

  7. 7. It tracks every client's plan for years, and tells you both the day it's time to act.

    The carrier talks to the system every day. When there's enough cash in a client's policy to knock out their next debt, you and the client get a text. You never check a balance by hand, and you never wonder which client is due.

    Every one of those texts puts the client back in front of you. The agents who've run this longest say that's where the second policy and the referrals come from.

Keep Things Easy For A Signed App On The First Appointment
...And Instant Decisions Too!

  1. 1

    The client gives you three things.

    A driver's license, a Social Security number, and an address. That's the whole intake.

  2. 2

    The engine pulls their records and scores the risk.

    Medical history, driving record, prescriptions. It scores the risk from what it finds, not from what the client remembers.

  3. 3

    The e-app skips the questions the records already answered.

    Not the same long questionnaire for everybody. The questions change based on what the records already show.

  4. 4

    The client answers in the app, with you sitting there.

    So the answers come now, not next week after three reminder texts.

5

Score plus answers, and the decision comes back.

Approved: the policy issues and the carrier pays you in days, not weeks.

Not approved on the spot: it goes to a human underwriter for review, which takes longer, and the system keeps you and the client posted either way.

Clients Love It Because They See Results Every Month

This is the part that keeps your clients happy and makes them want to tell their friends about you.

Each month

A soft credit pull updates the client's debt balances. Soft, so their score isn't touched.

The carrier's admin system sends the policy's current cash value over an API. The number is the carrier's, not the client's guess.

The Debt2Capital mark

The system compares the two.

Cash value still below the next debt: the client gets a text saying they're getting closer, keep going.

Example text
Nice work. Another month closer to debt free. Keep going.

Cash value above the next debt: you and the client both get a text, and the client's has a link to book the payoff meeting with you.

Example text
Good news. Your cash value now covers your auto loan. Tap here to book a time with your advisor and pay it off.

Six reasons agents and clients love this system.

One login.

Illustration, e-app, underwriting decision, all in the same place. No re-keying the case into the carrier's illustration system.

Verified numbers.

Monthly soft credit pulls for the debts, a direct carrier connection for the cash value. Nothing gets typed in from memory.

Instant decisions on most cases.

A rules-based e-app that changes its questions based on the applicant's data, and scores the case on the spot.

A carrier that built it with us.

The policy is a purpose-built whole life product from a not-for-profit insurer founded in 1892. They know exactly what the system is for, because they helped design it.

Texts and emails that go out on their own.

The client hears from you when it's time to act, without you remembering to send anything.

It doesn't end at zero.

A debt snowball stops when the last debt is gone. Here, the cash value keeps building after the last payoff, so the client ends up with capital, not just a clean slate.

Read enough? Come watch it.

What People Are Saying

I've always been a big believer in using life insurance as part of a debt elimination plan. The ideas from IBC are spot on but administrating the plans has always been tedious and my focus is always on client service. With the Debt2Capital system ongoing communications and servicing tasks are automated so this brings the concept to life, in real time.

Craig Marsh, SMART Advisor, Lutherville, MDCraig MarshSMART AdvisorLutherville, MD

I'm a true believer in building capital in life insurance to stay out of debt. Underwriting and other issues had me seriously considering getting out of the business until Debt2Capital became available. Now, I have a business system that works for my clients and supports me. I always want what is best for the clients I serve, but finally there is a system that serves my business needs, as well. I'm all in with Debt2Capital and have ambitious plans to help many families in my area and beyond.

Once the prospective client is ready, the system scores the risk, and you get an instant decision the majority of times. From there, you place the case, it gets issued, and the carrier compensates you in days not weeks!
