Hey here!
There are single premium ILPs that offer a lower sales charge (~1.5%). And I'm also guessing there are initial bonuses being given to you. Nothing wrong with opting for a single premium ILP, but do take note that 5% is quite a huge chunk. Do ensure you're aware of the portfolio, funds you're buying into.
Financial planning is an integral part of life. You can reach meΒ hereΒ to find out more.

Is this for cash, SRS, or CPF?
2-3% one time charge is fine if there's a portfolio and strategy in place.
1% if you're setting up an RSP.
The policy I believe you have in mind has no ongoing annual fees so in the long run, even at a 5% charge for every purchase, it'll cost less than an ongoing 0.5% charge after about 14-17 years after allowing for 6-8% yoy growth.
The graph below explains this. Blue line is 5% sales charge for every purchase, while orange is 0.5% annual fee with 0 sales charge with 8% p.a growth.
