3 reasons to choose a Co-op plan
We’re a complete funeral service provider
Unlike other funeral plan providers, we both plan and carry out your funeral, meaning you can be sure that every detail in your plan will be as you wanted.
A Co-op funeral director or one of our associated directors, will conduct your funeral, guaranteeing all the care and high standards you would expect from us. Other plan providers may ask you to nominate an independent funeral director, but they can’t guarantee that they will be the ones carrying out the funeral.
Our Co-op Commitment means no shortfalls
If you choose to pay for your funeral plan over a longer payment term, there is the risk that you could die before finishing the payments. If this were to happen, we'd make sure your family do not have to pay the shortfall.
Anyone paying for a funeral plan over 2-25 years is protected by our Co-op Commitment.^ This means if you’ve been paying into the plan for at least 12 months, but you die before finishing all the payments, we'll still honour your funeral plan.

^If you choose to make monthly payments over 2–25 years, your plan will include the Co-op Commitment. If you die after 12 months, we promise to deliver all the services provided in your plan, even if you’ve not made all the payments. If you die as a result of an accident within the first 12 months of your plan, you’ll be covered by our Co-op Commitment. All payments must be paid up to date and your funeral must be carried out by one of our funeral directors. See our terms and conditions.
