HELPING FAMILIES FIND YOU

We're the largest independent online marketplace connecting at-need families with funeral directors. We make it easy for families to find and engage with the best funeral directors in their area.

Yes! Just like most other aspects of life, people are now comfortable looking online for funerals. For lots of people it’s simply easier to do things online nowadays. Maybe they’ve moved to a new area and don’t know who the good funeral directors are; maybe they’re helping an elderly relative. Whatever the reason, around 20% of people in the UK now look online for funerals – a figure that will continue to rise. Beyond helps you serve these new customers.

Absolutely nothing – the only difference is how the customer finds you. We’ve designed our booking process to fit in really easily with how you run your business.

When you sign up to Beyond, you enter your service costs individually. We then automatically pull these prices together and present a total cost to the customer.

No, our fee is only calculated on the funeral director's professional fee. All 3rd party costs are excluded.

Beyond’s fee is calculated using the final cost of the funeral minus all 3rd party disbursements.

Funeral directors have two options: they can either be paid in the way they always have been, or have the customer pay them through Beyond.
If they choose to have the family pay them through Beyond, we can guarantee that they will receive 50% of the funeral monies before the funeral takes place.

Beyond has a direct debit with each of our partners.

Yes. On your account, you have the option to make yourself invisible to families.

No. This discount is deducted from any fee the funeral director owes Beyond, so you don’t lose out.

You will receive an email with the family details and their preliminary funeral choices. Beyond will also receive this email and will call you in case you do not have access to your email account.

Families always have the opportunity to change their minds and add or remove services once they are in conversation with the funeral director.

Reviews are only added by families who have used Beyond to contact a funeral director. This ensures all reviews are legitimate.

This choice is purely down to the family. We do not promote one funeral director over another.

Yes, we will provide you with all the supporting materials free of charge.

Yes, you can log into your account here – https://director.beyond.life/login – and easily update your service costs.

Some funeral directors on Beyond reduce their costs. No one inflates their costs. If they do, they are in breach of our T&C’s – https://beyond.life/info/partner-terms – and will be removed from Beyond.

There are no tie-in periods with Beyond. You are free to leave the website at any time.

Beyond makes it easy for families to see and compare all their options in one place. It saves families valuable time at a moment when that is the most important thing. We also offer additional services many funeral directors don’t, such as free will writing, funeral finance and estate administration.

Other than word of mouth, families find us on Google, where we appear alongside websites belonging to Co-op Funeral Care and Dignity. We want to make sure families are aware of their local independents before they commit themselves to a national chain. We also do a lot of traditional advertising.

We are proud to be SAIF associate members.

It usually takes around 10 to 15 minutes to sign up, enter your service costs and complete your profile on Beyond. Why not give us a call on 0800 044 9454 to get going?
