Conversations about death and losing loved ones (or even our own death) used to be daunting and often caused awkward moments among family members. However, times have changed and people have evolved, opening up more around this tough topic. The reality around unexpected life events is that they are common and our families need to be prepared in the event that they happen.
In South Africa, respecting the dignity of a passed loved one is important to our culture. It also often means spending a fortune on funeral costs while preparing for the final send-off ceremony. Funeral cover is something that many people rely on to absorb the costs and minimise the anxiety that come with this grieving time. Funerals or the prospect of a funeral in its entirety is an expensive issue, which is why taking the time to plan ahead is essential.
Speaking from experience
Gail Van den Heever signed up for VodaSure Funeral Cover in the comfort of her own home on the VodaPay app. Since Gail has taken up the funeral cover, she’s at peace knowing that there won’t be any financial burden left for her kids, in the event of their parents’ death. Gail managed to finalise everything in about 5 minutes.
“What really convinced me to take up this cover is the low premium and the fact that there would be a cash pay-out in 24 hours. It’s really affordable as I’m only paying R98pm for myself and my husband. It’s an affordable and simple funeral cover.” said Gail.
A mother of three kids and seven grandchildren from the Western Cape, Gail decided to cover herself and her husband, so her family has peace of mind in the event of their death.
“The experience was really seamless, with a few clicks the policy was in my inbox. There were no blood tests required.”, concludes Gail.
