Martins Funerals Services
Martin’s Funerals offer funeral cover packages for individuals, pensioners, and families – and these packages and their benefits are listed on their website.
Funeral Cover for pensioners
Most funeral policies have a maximum coverage of 65 years – meaning that pensioners are often left with no options for any form of funeral cover. Martin’s Funerals have three packages designed for people who are over the age of 65.
- The Emerald Plan for pensioners offers people between 65 and 84 R15,000 worth of cover as well as the option to add their spouse and children to the policy at just R175 per month.
- The Pearl Plan offers a cover of up to R18,000 for a policyholder and their spouse who must be between the ages of 65 and 84 at R270 per month.
- The Zircon Plan offers cover for people over the age of 85 with a payout of R12,000 at a monthly premium of R245.
Cover for families
All family plans are available to policyholders and their spouses who have a South African ID book and are between the ages of 18 and 64.
- The Sapphire Plan offers cover to the policyholder and their spouse of R15,000 and cover for their children ranging from R3,750 for stillborn children, to R15,000 for children between 14 and 21 years of age at a monthly premium of R155.
- The Ruby Plan offers cover to the policyholder and their spouse of R20,000 and cover for their children ranging from R5,000 for stillborn children, to R20,000 for children between 14 and 21 years of age at a monthly premium of R200.

When a loved one passes
If you have a funeral policy you will need to provide a range of supporting documents like the death certificate and notice of death from before the policy will payout.

They have a great deal of information about everything from what happens when someone passes away to how to write an obituary on their website.
