About John Hancock Insurance

At John Hancock, we help our customers protect the people they love, grow their retirement savings and preserve their legacy for future generations. How do we do this? By providing them with thoughtful and innovative life insurance solutions that can help them reach their financial goals – at every stage of life.

In 2015, we started a new chapter in our 150-year history when we partnered with the Vitality Group to help our clients live longer, healthier lives. As the first life insurance company in the United States to offer a wellness-based rewards program, John Hancock life insurance with Vitality gives our customers the financial protection they need while also helping them earn savings on their premiums, shopping gift cards and travel discounts for their everyday healthy habits, like going for a walk, eating well and getting a regular health check. The John Hancock Vitality Program is just one of the many ways we support our clients every day.
