Funeral Insurance

Reduce financial stress with Suncorp Funeral Insurance

Funeral insurance is designed to reduce your family’s financial burden at what is always an emotional time. With the cost of funerals running into thousands of dollars, the last thing most families need when they’re coping with the loss of a loved one is to dig into their savings. While many people have life insurance, normally this doesn’t pay a benefit until after the relevant paperwork has been submitted and processed. This takes time, and it’s unlikely the money will be available at short notice to pay for a funeral.

Suncorp Funeral Plan is affordable, easy-to-obtain funeral insurance that provides a financial safety net for you and your loved ones. On your death, it pays a lump sum benefit to cover the costs of a funeral and other associated expenses. You can apply for as little as $5,000 or as much as $30,000². And to reward you for your loyalty, every 3 years you’ll receive a 10% refund of the funeral insurance premiums you’ve paid¹.                               

What do you get?

Additional Features²

Your family could receive a payout if you die as the result of an accident in the first 12 months of the policy and any cause of death is covered after the first 12 months of the policy.

Suncorp will refund all premiums to your loved ones if you die as a result of sickness or suicide within the first 12 months of the policy.
