About Voluntary Contributions
Our Choice Essentials & Choice Plus Plans provide the flexibility to personalise and upgrade elements of a funeral and allow Voluntary Contributions to be made towards Additional Products & Services and Third Party Fees, if desired.
Certain Third Party Fees must be paid in order for the funeral to take place in addition to the funeral plan cost. Third Party Fees, such as cremation and burial fees, are costs we pay to someone else and are not included in the Choice Essentials & Choice Plus plans. This is because these fees vary in price depending on factors, such as what type of funeral you choose, your preference of a crematorium or burial site and if a doctor’s certificate would be required.
Depending upon the amount of Voluntary Contributions you make, this amount may or may not be sufficient to pay for Third Party Fees and Additional Products & Services. Additional costs may need to be paid for when the Funeral Plan is Redeemed. Prices will be charged at the prevailing rate at the time of Redemption.
