I know that it sounds odd to use the word funeral and life in the same phrase, as in funeral life insurance! This product is meant to cover the expense of funerals and burials, which can cost thousands of dollars these days.  It is, actually, a smaller whole life policy that has been designed for this reason, and also designed as an affordable way to plan for funerals and other end-of-life expenses.

The face values vary, but are usually from a few thousand dollars to a few tens of thousands of dollars. It is hard to get exact figures for the average costs of funerals today, but estimates run from $8,000 – $10,000. Besides, other expenses tend to crop up when a loved one passes away. People take time off of work, they may have to travel, guests have to be fed. So it is always better, as in all things, to have more money than you need than less money than you need.


Sometimes you may also see this product called some other names like burial policies, final expense insurance, or senior life insurance. These different titles all, pretty much, refer to the same product. 

Advantages of Funeral Life Insurance

  • The death benefit is cash for the beneficiary to use as they see fit.
  • Many funeral homes will accept an assignment of the death benefit to pay for funeral expenses.
  • The family is not locked into one funeral home or company.
  • With pre-paid funeral plans, you may actually be paying interest on a loan, so even though you have small monthly payments to make, you may pay more in the long run.
  •  
  • Sometimes a person will purchase a policy for themselves. An average purchase is probably middle aged and thinking about retirement or estate planning. Sometimes the family will purchase the plan for a loved one. They do this to make sure they can take care of their family member when the time comes.
