How A Single MiFuneral Policy Can Cover Extended Family Members
09 Sep 2024

With MiFuneral, you can get one affordable funeral policy that can protect multiple generations.

There are lots of reasons why you’d want funeral cover your entire family, not just yourself. For starters, if you purchase a MiFuneral Policy, you can cover everyone in one go and then enjoy full peace of mind. One policy. One premium. One debit. No hassle.

Why MiFuneral is a great choice for your family

MiFuneral is a digital-only funeral policy that’s affordable, flexible and easy to buy online. You can choose to cover yourself as well as extended family members with just a single policy. As you select your cover amount, you can enjoy an affordable premium and customise your policy further with additional optional benefits. These include extra cover to help you meet other end-of-life expenses and you get to decide how you’d like it to be paid – as a lump sum or as a short-term monthly income.

MiFuneral knows that flexibility is key, so you can also remove a life insured or beneficiary at any time. As an example, you might want to include funeral coverage for your children on your policy while they’re still relying on you financially, but wish to remove them once they can afford to invest in their own funeral policy.

Which family members can you protect with MiFuneral?

If you have a MiFuneral Policy, you can add additional family members to your policy, such as your spouse, children (including stepchildren or adoptive children), parents or parents-in-law and even extended family members. Your spouse, parents-in-law and any newborn children must be added within 6 months of a new birth or marriage and all other family members need to be added on the day you buy your own policy.

Something else to keep in mind? MiFuneral Policy won’t offer additional funeral cover for your parents if they’re older than 85 at the time the policy is created nor for extended family members that are older than 70. So, if you have elderly family members about to hit these big birthdays, now’s the time to get funeral cover.

More reasons to choose a MiFuneral Policy

When you buy a MiFuneral policy, you’ll get access to our complimentary Funeral Arrangement Service. Our agents will be on hand to offer telephonic support to help you navigate funeral-related legal documents including the application process for death certificates. They can also connect you to trusted service providers and even arrange overnight accommodation for immediate out-of-town family members travelling to attend the funeral.

This service also includes a Repatriation Benefit that will provide air or road transportation of your loved one’s remains to a funeral parlour near their residence if they pass away more than 100km away from home and can assist with the transportation of ashes after cremation.

The bottom line

If you want funeral cover for yourself as well as your extended family members, consider choosing a MiFuneral Policy. It can cover your entire family for one low premium and you’ll have full peace of mind knowing your loved ones can receive a dignified farewell. Why not get a quick online quote today?
