2025 has been an eventful year and there's plenty to talk about with friends and family. But funeral cover isn’t something most people talk about over Sunday lunch, although it plays an important role when it matters most. Picking the right policy is personal. It depends on what fits your budget, your lifestyle, and how much support you want your family to have when the time comes.
South Africans have no shortage of options. Some plans are basic, and others come packed with benefits. The key is to do your homework and choose what truly works for you.
Know what you’re looking for
Before signing up for any funeral cover, think about your priorities. Are you looking for the lowest monthly premium or more focused on getting fast payouts and support services? There’s no right or wrong. It’s about what makes sense for your family.
What to check before you commit to buying any funeral cover product:
If you’re comparing funeral plans, keep a few essentials in mind:
- What does the monthly premium include? Does it match the level of cover you need?
- Find out how easy it is to claim and how long it takes to pay out.
- Choose a funeral cover provider with a proven track record. Read reviews, ask around, and check how long they’ve been operating.
- Some insurers offer trauma counselling, funeral planning, admin help, and more. These extras can make a big difference.
