Choosing the Right Funeral Payment Option for You
Posted by: Erin Ward in Funeral Planning Resources | September 2, 2021
Planning a funeral can be an overwhelming experience, especially if you’re planning for a death that has already occurred. There are a lot of different decisions to make, from choosing burial or cremation to selecting readings and speakers for the service. But one of the most important, and often stressful, decisions to make is how you’re going to pay for it.
If you don’t have the savings to pay up front or would rather keep your savings, choosing a payment option can be difficult. To help you not feel rushed into making a decision, this blog post gives you a quick glance at several alternative funeral payment options and why they may be right for you.
Raise Funds for the Funeral and Other Living Expenses with Funeral Fundraising
Funeral fundraising is when you create an online campaign for raising funds for your loved one’s funeral or other living expenses. Family, friends, and even kind strangers can simply select their desired donation amount and pay right for their laptop or mobile device.
Below are a few benefits of funeral fundraising:
- Like we mentioned earlier, you can raise funds for more than just the funeral. There are other expenses when a loved one passes away, such as medical bills, your mortgage payment, and other living expenses.
- Funeral fundraising also helps give you a sense of community as you grieve your loss. Everyone’s generous donations and support show that you're not alone in your grief.
- Depending on how much you raise, you may be able to keep your emergency savings instead of depleting it.

Pay for the Expenses Over Time by Applying for Funeral Financing
Funeral financing is when you apply for a funeral loan, so you can pay the expenses over time to the lender instead of all at once. This way, you can plan the funeral that you want without making sacrifices due to the cost.
Below are a few benefits of funeral financing:
- Instead of draining your funds, you can pay the funeral expenses over time, so you can still pay your bills and other living expenses.
- Life is unpredictable, so with a funeral loan, you can keep your emergency savings for unexpected expenses, whether that’s fixing your car or replacing a kitchen appliance.
- Funeral financing can give you the peace of mind that you need while grieving a loss. You know that the expenses are taken care of, and it’s one less thing to worry about as you adjust to your new normal.

Submit a Claim to Use a Loved One’s Life Insurance Assignment as Funeral Payment
For this payment option, you can submit a claim to use your loved one’s life insurance assignment to cover the funeral expenses. This way, you don’t have to take on a loan if you don’t want to.
Below are a few benefits of life insurance assignments as funeral payment:
- Using a life insurance assignment as funeral payment eliminates potentially uncomfortable conversations with your family about who is going to pay for the expenses.
- Like the other options, you can keep your emergency savings for something else, as your savings should be a last resort if there are no other choices.
- Instead of making payments over time with a loan, you can take care of the funeral expenses all at once.

HOW I REUNITED WITH MY EX AFTER TWO YEARS OF SEPARATION.
DISCLAIMER!!!
This is my own little way of helping people who are going through what I went through.
My story is like that of Beauty and the beast.
I got married to my first love when I was 23 and we have a beautiful daughter together.My husband literally adore the ground I walk on and he means the world to me. We were sohappy as a unit until 3 rd September 2018, when tragedy struck and I was involved in a ghastlymotor accident which left me bed ridden and confined to a wheelchair ever since.It was as though my whole world has crumbled as I became helpless and a burden to my loved ones. My little daughter of 8years suffered the most emotionally in all of this. However, my husband was giving me all the support both physically and emotionally as I was being nursed back to health. However, as my health deteriorated with the passage of time, I noticed my husband’s attitude towards me had changed. He started keeping late nights and coming home drunk. This continued for some time and then what I feared the most happened. One faithful morning, he moved out of the house without a word. He wouldn’t return his calls or messages. Even his family members claimed not to know his where about. By this time, my kid sister had moved in with me to help with the chores and taking care of our daughter. I had countless sleepless night and would drench my pillow every night before going to bed. Then there was this Sunday evening that my kid sister invited her friend over for dinner. He met me at the lobby on my wheelchair and was very warm and chatty. It was obvious my sister had already briefed him on my situation. We ate dinner and during our conversation, he said his acquaintance had a similar situation like I did with my husband and the lady’s husband is now reunited with her and their kids after she encountered some certain man. I hesitated at first since my case was different but my sister somehow convinced me to give it a try and I obliged. We connected and I was introduced to DR MARIAN. Let me not bore you with my long sermons. To cut the long story short, the only man I ever loved, the man that walked me down the aisle is back home where he rightly belong. RIGHT BESIDE ME AND MY DAUGHTER Thank you DR MARIAN for taking your time to attend to my needs. I had already given up on online spells Because of my past experiences with scammers who claim to be what they are not, But DR MARIAN made me happy again. DR MARIAN is an expert at what he does with 30 years plus of experince and i strongly recommend him to anyone facing any matrital issues as his works are 100 percent GUARANTEED which i can continue to testify to. DONT LET THESE NUMEROUS ADS YOU SEE ONLINE OF SOMEONE TESTIFYING ABOUT A DR FOOL YOU AS THEY ARE ALL FAKE. DR MARIAN STILL REMAIN THE ONLY TRUE SPELL CASTER I KNOW AS HE HAS PROVEN TO BE LEGIT AND HELPED ME. SO BE SMART AND CONTACT HIM NOW TO GET YOUR PROBLEM SOLVED VIA:

I am Rachel Wilmott from Bakersfield, CA, United States. I need to share this here so you won’t lose your money cheaply to scam brokers. I invested about $509,278.10 on a binary option platform, then I decided to withdraw after several weeks. The withdrawal wasn’t successful, so I tried to contact the platform via email and phone number. I didn't get a response from them when everything started looking weird. Some weeks later I got a letter from them insisting I should invest more money if I want to withdraw my money which I rejected and I never heard from them again. That was when I knew I had been scammed. I was really devastated at that moment and felt so bad that my hard earned money was gone. After some months I came across a lot of testimonies on the web how Rustik Cyber Hack Service had helped many people recover their stolen scammed funds or duped money on bitcoin or any other form of digital currency. I contacted them and they promised to help me get my money back and asked me for some info about the scammer which I provided. The result was amazing. I recovered all my stolen money in 73hours. I was so happy as I never believed I could get my money back. Thanks Rustik Cyber Hack Service and you restore my happiness as I could see my funds in my wallet. They are capable of recovering any crypto coins Bitcoin, Usdt ,Eth, Dogecoin, bank transfer scammed funds with their guidelines and skills.
