Why Funeral Cover Is A Must In 2025
20 Jan 2025

New year, new goals! If buying funeral cover isn’t on the list, we’re here to explain why it’s a must-have.

Right! You’ve enjoyed that much needed break and now you can tackle 2025 with fresh energy.  If you’ve decided to lose weight or quit smoking – good for you! These healthy resolutions could even see you enjoy a lower life insurance premium! However, if you’re working hard to improve your health, you’ll also want to improve your financial fitness and buying funeral cover is a great way to do it.

Why should funeral cover be a priority in 2025?

We all want to live a long and happy life but each new year is a gift that’s not for granted. If you had to unexpectedly pass away, what impact would that have on your family? Funerals are expensive and, like the price of most things, will continue to rise as the years go by. Without funeral cover, families often find themselves struggling to afford a dignified farewell for their loved ones, leading to stress, anxiety and arguments about who’s going to pay for what. They might even have to dip into their savings or, worse yet, go into debt.

Fortunately, if you have funeral cover, you can rest assured that your family won’t be financially burdened during an already difficult time. This is one of the biggest reasons why buying funeral cover should be one of the first things you tick off on your January to-do list. However, if you buy funeral cover from MiFuneral, we can give you even more reasons as to why it’s a must-have for 2050.

Why MiFuneral Is A Must-Have For 2025

MiFuneral is our new digital-first funeral policy that can be bought online with just a few quick clicks. (Unlike earning that six-pack in the gym, it’s a New Year’s resolution you can tick off within minutes!) As this policy is an online exclusive (OR online only), you can pass on paying extra administration and broker fees to enjoy a lower premium. Better yet, you can choose your cover amount and customise your policy with optional benefits like extra cover to help you meet other end-of-life expenses. You even get to decide how you’d like it to be paid – as a lump sum or as a short-term monthly income to protect your family going forward.

The benefits don’t stop there. All MiFuneral Policies give your loved ones complimentary access to our Funeral Arrangement Service which offers telephonic support. Our compassionate agents will always be just a phone call away to help your loved ones navigate the application process for a death certificate as well as understand other legal documents. They can even arrange overnight accommodation for family members who might have to travel from afar to attend the funeral and put your beneficiaries in touch with trusted service providers. As MiFuneral policy prides itself on paying out fast, you can expect to be paid out within 48 hours of a successful claim.

The Bottom Line

As you set your intentions for the new year, consider buying a MiFuneral cover policy. It's a responsible step that can help secure your family’s financial future, making it a valuable part of estate planning. Once you’ve got it, you can enjoy maximum peace of mind and get back to living in the moment, enjoying all the happiness that 2025 may bring.
