Are you wanting credit card & loan payments made for you only? If so, you can get them from the loan / credit providers directly

Unemployment benefits are effectively a form of unemployment insurance. (Contrast this with disability insurance, which provides coverage if you are injured or fall ill and are unable to work.)

What you want is called a supplemental or private unemployment insurance policy.
