Sanlam Funeral cover

Sanlam’s Funeral Cover ensures that your family won’t have to face financial strain while arranging a dignified farewell. This cover helps manage funeral costs and other once-off final expenses, providing peace of mind during a difficult period.

Sanlam Funeral Cover offers personalized plans to meet the unique needs of every family. With flexible options, you can cover yourself, your spouse, and even over 20 family members under one policy. Here are some of the key features and benefits that make Sanlam Funeral Cover a solid choice for South African families:

  • Up to R100,000 cover: Both you and your spouse can be covered for a maximum of R100,000 each.
  • Family coverage: Sanlam’s Value Funeral Plan allows you to cover up to 22 individuals, ensuring that your loved ones are protected.
  • Children are covered for life: This includes biological and adopted children, providing long-term security for your family.
  • Quick claim process: Most funeral claims are paid within just four hours, ensuring that the funds are available when you need them most.
  • No waiting period: If you previously had a funeral plan, you can get immediate cover without a waiting period.
  • Accidental death benefits: Sanlam offers triple accident cover, providing extra protection in unforeseen circumstances.

Affordable Premiums Starting from R58

Sanlam Funeral Cover is accessible to South Africans from all walks of life, with premiums starting as low as R58 per month. This affordability means you can provide your family with essential coverage without breaking the bank.

Simplified Claims Process

Sanlam understands that during times of grief, a complex claims process is the last thing anyone needs. The claims process is streamlined to be as simple as possible, with claims typically paid out within four hours once all necessary documentation (such as a completed claim form and death certificate) is submitted. In the unfortunate event of your passing, the payout goes directly to your beneficiaries or estate.

Premium Holidays and Flexibility

Sanlam offers additional support to ensure that your family remains covered during tough times. If you suffer a permanent disability, you can remain covered for a specified period without paying premiums. Similarly, if you fall pregnant or become unemployed, you can pause your policy for up to 12 months. There are also options to keep your family covered for up to six months if you pass away before age 65.

For Sanlam Indie clients, there’s even the option to skip a premium payment if necessary. Although the coverage will be adjusted temporarily, this flexibility allows you to manage your finances without losing your protection.

Inflation-Adjusted Cover

Sanlam ensures your funeral cover remains valuable over time by automatically adjusting your policy for inflation. This guarantees that your coverage will still be sufficient in the future when your family needs it most.

Cashback and Wealth Bonuses

One of the standout features of Sanlam Funeral Cover is the cashback or Wealth Bonus, especially if you buy the policy online. This benefit allows you to receive a portion of your premiums back, helping to reward you for maintaining your coverage over the years.
