A new innovation from Legal & General America means customers will be able to simply submit a photo of themselves – otherwise known as a ‘selfie’ – to obtain a life insurance quote.
Legal & General America’s SelfieQuote.com provides a life insurance quote by estimating an individual’s age, gender, and body mass index (BMI) using an individual’s selfie photo.
