For many South Africans, supporting your parents doesn't end when you become an adult. You may help with groceries, medical expenses or monthly bills. When the time eventually comes, you may also be the person responsible for arranging and paying for a funeral.

That's why MiWayLife's MiFuneral Policy is designed to help you protect more than just yourself, including your parents.

Who Can You Cover? 

MiFuneral offers flexible family cover that reflects the way South African families really live. 

In addition to yourself, you can cover your spouse, children, parents and parents-in-law (up to age 85). You can also extend cover to grandparents, siblings, aunts, uncles and other qualifying relatives. 

What Is Insurable Interest? 

You may hear the term insurable interest when taking out funeral cover, but it's much simpler than it sounds. 

It means you have a genuine relationship with the person you're insuring and would suffer a financial or personal loss if they passed away. This helps ensure funeral cover is taken out for the right reasons and protects everyone involved.

Do Your Parents Need to Give Permission?

Yes. Another adult can't simply be added to a funeral policy without their knowledge. The necessary information and consent are required when taking out cover, helping to prevent fraud and ensuring everyone understands the policy.

Why MiFuneral Makes Sense

As a direct, digital-first solution, MiFuneral helps keep costs affordable while also including valuable benefits that go beyond funeral cover.

Every MiFuneral policy includes access to our complimentary Funeral Arrangement Service, designed to ease the burden of funeral planning. This service offers telephonic guidance through potentially confusing legal processes, such as obtaining a death certificate, and can even help arrange accommodation for out-of-town family members attending the funeral. 

Your policy will also include our Repatriation Service. If one of your parents passes away more than 100km from home, we'll help transport their remains to the chosen funeral parlour nearest to their residence, helping your family focus on saying goodbye instead of worrying about the logistics.

The Bottom Line 

Taking out funeral cover for your parents is a practical way to help protect the people who have always been there for you. With MiFuneral Policy, you can cover your parents under one flexible policy.
