Sentinel Security Life is proud to announce that commissions on New Business will be paid daily starting April 3, 2017. This change will ensure that you, our agents, will be paid faster. Policies must be issued with premium received in order to be in the daily payout. Renewal commissions will continue to be paid on a weekly basis. Even though new commissions will occur daily, it still may take 2-3 business days for funds to be deposited into your bank account from the date the policy is issued. If you have any questions, please call Licensing/Commissions at 1-800-247-1423. #goldencareagent
