Lots of Aussies, particularly seniors, take out funeral insurance so their families can focus on arranging a fitting farewell, rather than worrying about the cost of a service. You pay a monthly fee and in exchange, your family receives a lump sum when you die, to cover the cost of your funeral. It typically suits people who struggle to save independently or can't find an affordable life insurance policy. Remember, if you have a funeral insurance policy for a long time, you might end up spending more on premiums than you would have on a funeral. Thankfully, lots of insurers have a value promise, which means they'll pay out the same amount you put in or more, as long as you have your policy for at least 12 months. Sort by: Name (A-Z)
