How to Register with our Providers

To help you with the protection agency process please find below details of how to register with each Provider. Please remember to complete and return your Paradigm Protect Panel Form to ensure that you are aligned to our enhanced terms where you are better off.

Wondering what the process is when you start using Paradigm as your payment route? The way you submit business doesn’t change and your net commission will continue to be paid directly to you by the providers. If you have any questions about this please call us on 03300 536061.

If you’re setting up life protecion agencies for the first time, we’d recommend completing an Origo Application. This allows to apply to the multiple life protection providers in a single application. Just remember to select Paradigm as your service provider and then select the Paradigm Protect Panel option. The Origo application allows you to apply to the following providers:

AIG
Aviva
Legal-and-General-Protection
LV=
Royal-London
Scottish-Widows
Vitality
Zurich

Please find the instructions for life protection and GI providers not on Origo below:
