Age contribution guide

Package tiers explain the service benefits. These age bands help the office estimate the main member, spouse and dependant contribution before the final review.

Shop Tombstones Ask About Upgrades

Upgrade rules

Packages include a default level. Extras pay for more.

This gives the family clear choices without confusing package benefits with once-off purchases. It also gives the parlour a clean way to quote upgrades.

Included level

Every package has a default coffin or casket level. That level should be written on the member record and explained before joining.

Upgrade at claim time

If the family wants a more expensive casket than the package includes, the office quotes the cash difference before the funeral is arranged.

Tombstone add-on

Tombstone support can be added monthly, such as R150 or R250 on top of the package, or bought separately as a once-off memorial.

No surprise extras

Cash top-ups, engraving, cemetery rules and installation costs should be confirmed in writing before payment.

Choose by family situation

Not every household needs the same package.

A strong package page helps visitors recognise themselves before they contact the office. This is especially useful for extended families, senior members and burial societies.

Individual Member

For a single adult who wants a low monthly contribution and a clear funeral service record.

Family Household

For a main member, spouse and children where the package must be easy to explain at home.

Extended Family

For parents, in-laws or relatives who live elsewhere but still need to be covered by the family.

Burial Society

For stokvel or society groups that need simple contribution tracking and a single reporting view.

How joining works

A package choice should lead into a clean registration flow.

Choose

Compare the monthly contribution, service value and practical burial-day benefits.

Confirm

The office explains waiting periods, first contribution rules and who can be added.

Register

Submit member details, contacts, dependants and document uploads online.

Review

The office checks the application and issues a member reference for payments.

Package questions

The questions families ask before they register.

A package page should answer the practical details before a family phones, sends a WhatsApp or walks into the office.

Answer 01

Are these final package prices?

The prices are presented as package guides. Confirm final monthly contributions, benefits, waiting periods and provider approval rules with the office before joining.

Answer 02

Can one package cover parents or extended family?

Yes, when the provider allows extended member add-ons. Each extra person should be listed clearly with age limits, waiting periods and monthly contribution changes.

Answer 03

How are older members or dependants priced?

Use the age contribution guide as a starting point. It separates main member, spouse and dependant rates by age band, then the office confirms final package contribution, approval rules and any waiting period.

Answer 04

What should a family check before signing?

The family should see who is covered, the coffin or casket level, home setup, transport, documents, food support, waiting periods and any cash top-ups.

Answer 05

Can a casket, tombstone or catering option be upgraded later?

Yes. The office should quote the once-off cash difference or monthly add-on before the funeral arrangement is confirmed.

Answer 06

When does membership become active?

Membership should only be treated as active after the office reviews the application, records the first contribution and explains any waiting period rules.

Answer 07

Can someone register online and still visit the office?

Yes. Online registration captures the first details, while the office can still check documents, explain the package and give the family a reference number.

Ready to compare with a consultant?

Start online, or speak to the office first.

If you are unsure which package fits your household, ask the office to compare dependants, extended family and rider benefits before you submit.

Final monthly contributions, benefits, waiting periods and terms must be confirmed with the office before membership starts.

Age contribution tables are guideline rates for quoting conversations; they do not replace office approval, provider rules or written package terms.

Online registration checks basic South African ID format, but the office must still review documents and member details.

Monthly contributions should be paid only with the correct member reference and a receipt should be kept after every payment.

Casket upgrades, tombstones, catering, transport limits and cemetery costs should be confirmed in writing before the service is arranged.
