The ultimate life hack will always save you money and give you more peace of mind, much like MiFuneral cover.

We love a good life hack, especially when it makes everyday things easier or saves us money. Whether it’s using an app to track your spending or finally sorting out your budget spreadsheet, hacks help us stay ahead. But when it comes to protecting your family’s future, one of the best financial life hacks is often the most overlooked - funeral cover.

Here are a few of our hacks for choosing the best type of cover for maximum peace of mind.

Hack #1: Choose Funeral Cover You Can Buy Online

No one wants to sit through piles of paperwork. This is why MiFuneral lets you get cover online in minutes. It’s affordable, simple and designed to fit into your life without the fuss. No medical exams, no in-person meetings - just a quick, secure application and you’re covered.

Hack #2: Pick a Policy That Pays Out Fast

Funeral expenses add up quickly and waiting weeks for a payout simply isn’t an option. With MiFuneral, your family can receive the money within 24 hours of a valid claim being approved. That means less stress, fewer financial delays and the ability to focus on what really matters.

Hack #3: Make Life Easier With a Funeral Arrangement Service

This is one of those benefits you don’t know you need until you need it. All MiFuneral policies give your family complimentary access to our Funeral Arrangement Service. It provides telephonic support to guide your loved ones as they navigate the often confusing paperwork regarding legal documents like death certificates. It also connects them to trusted service providers and even offers assistance with the repatriation of remains. 

Hack #4: Look for Optional Extras That Really Count

Not all funeral cover is created equally. With MiFuneral, you can customise your policy with optional extras like Income Support Cover, which pays your family a monthly amount for 12 months after your passing. It’s a savvy way to ensure they can keep up with everyday expenses during an already difficult time.

You could also opt for Final Expenses Cover which provides an additional lump sum payout to help cover urgent costs that arise after a loved one passes away that aren’t related to the funeral itself.

Hack #5: Get Life Cover That Includes Funeral Cover

Want to tick two boxes with one policy? Get all-in-one cover! MiWayLife offers life insurance that includes built-in funeral cover that pays out fast so your family gets both short-term and long-term support with one affordable policy. It’s the ultimate financial safety net for maximum peace of mind.

The Bottom Line

We don’t always like to think about the unexpected – but planning for it is one of the best things you can do. With MiFuneral and MiWayLife, you get peace of mind, fast support and cover that actually makes life easier for the people you love. Now that’s a hack worth having!
