Preplanned Funerals - Ensuring Peace of Mind for the Future.

Pre plan your funeral with a Now for Them account

In today's society, pre-planning and pre-paying a funeral is gaining widespread acceptance. Many individuals recognise the benefit of documenting their service preferences in advance, alleviating the emotional and financial burden on their families when the time comes.

At Gateway Funeral Services, we understand the importance of ensuring your wishes are carried out as you desire, providing your loved ones with peace of mind. By pre-planning, you take control of important decisions - from the ceremony style and music selection to burial or cremation options - creating a clear roadmap to honour your life with dignity.

How it Works: Opening a Now for Them Plan Account

Securing the financial aspects of your funeral is now more straightforward than ever. Through our updated payment options, you can manage your funds with complete flexibility:

  • No Limits: You decide exactly how much to set aside - there is no minimum and no maximum contribution.

  • Flexible Payments: You can make a single lump-sum contribution or choose to contribute over time.

  • Account Types: You can open separate individual accounts for both yourself and your partner.

  • Legal Representation: If someone else wishes to open an account on your behalf, they must hold formal legal authority to manage your affairs.

Please Note: These plan accounts do not pay out individual returns or interest. Instead, the funds are invested into the plan, and the earnings from those investments are used to cover all operating costs, any applicable funeral assistance payments, and charitable donations. This is managed on a sustainable basis using specialist actuarial advice.

Take the Next Step

Whether you want to plan for the future or need assistance in the present, our compassionate team is here to guide you every step of the way. We will help you think through a sensible financial amount based on the kind of funeral you have in mind, ensuring your arrangements align perfectly with your personal values.
