Afterlife Post Pricing

As we can't predict the future, we don't (at this time) allow you to buy a lifetime plan. As we can't say how the internet, mail, or just businesses in general will function 10, 20, 50, 70+ years from now. What we do have is a max amount you can pay.

Please know that we do allow you to make a "hybrid" plan as well. After all you might want friends/relatives you know their addresses to be notified by letter, but your friends from online (or just people you don't know their addresses) to be notified by e-mail. We may offer different pricing at a later date, but for now just assume you'll have two separate packages put on your account.

Mailed Service Plans

Mailed (Free)

  • 1 postal address for mailing
  • up to 5 one-page letters
  • up to 3 pages of usernames/passwords

Basically we'll print off up to 5 one page letters (or 1 five page letters, or some combination thereof), and up to 3 pages of username/password/sites and everything will be bundled up into the same envelope and mailed (with a delivery confirmation) to one address upon your confirmed death.

This currently costs us up to $10 -- but we're offering it for free at this time.

Mailed Yearly Plan (varies)

  • as many mailing addresses you want
  • as many pages & letters as you want
  • as many pages of passwords you want

The catch? We charge based on the numbers, which can change every year. Currently:

  • $3 USD/mailing address in the USA [overseas possible, we'll have to quote you] per 5 pages
  • $0.10 (10›)/page

The price/page is based on total pages for all letters and password lists. So if you have 5 one page letters (5 pages total), 5 two page letters (10 pages), and 3 two page password lists needed to be printed (6 pages), you've got a total of 21 pages printed -- so it'd be 21*.1 = $2.10 for just the pages.

 

E-Mailed Service Plans

E-Mail (Free)

  • 5 e-mails max
  • 5 letters, with 7,500 characters max
  • 10 site/username/password

You're limited to 5 e-mails as recepients, 5 letters (max 7,500 characters/letter), and only 10 sites with usernames and passwords sent to any of the 5 e-mail recepients.

Wondering why we charge for digital things? Basically we need money to stay open -- but we want to make sure everyone can use the service!

E-Mail Yearly Plan ($25/yr)

  • unlimited* e-mails
  • unlimited* letters (up to 4GB/each letter)
  • unlimited* sites/usernames/passwords

Yes, there is a slight catch: we do limit the actual size, but it's such a large number (we won't say what) that we doubt anyone will ever hit it. You could send a 1 page letter to 5,000 friends and relatives and still have plenty of room (or a 10 page to 500 people, etc)

 

Handwritten Letters

We also allow clients to mail us letters to keep in a safety deposit box that are hand-written. Of course we will only accept a handwritten letter and nothing else. This option is for those people who just don't like the idea of sending a digital printout of their last words to their loved ones.

This option has a yearly fee -- and has no max payment. This means you will have a bill every year no matter how many years pass.

 

Maximum Fees ("Lifetime Plans")

The maximum amount you can currently spend with us is 10x the actual cost of mailing for printed-and-mailed items, and is currently 10x the yearly fee for digital (e-mail) delivery as well as a max (these rates may be altered to correspond to your estimated lifespan / 2 [so if you'll potentially live for 50 more years, your max may be 25x the yearly] at a later time to help offset general costs associated with the unknowns)

You cannot pre-pay these amounts! You will always be on a yearly plan, just once you hit the maximum amounts per the agreements, you just won't owe anything else.

For actual mail delivery, the lifetime amount will vary as you add or remove items for mailing (and as prices for mail increase). We apologize for this, but it's how it is.

For example: If you finalize your letter list, and it'd cost $100 to send them all, the most you'd pay is $1000. Every five years we'll reevaluate the total cost for mailing -- as long as it doesn't exceed 50% of what you've paid us, you'll owe nothing more. If it does, you'll owe 2x the difference. As long as the mailing cost doesn't hit your 50% charge -- you'll never owe more. I.E.: in 10 years you pay $1000, year 15 mailing costs total $600, you'll owe $200 (50% for shipping, 50% for rising employee costs, putting your max at $1200 -- 5 years later, the cycle repeats).

Also: if you have $100 is letters now, your max it $1000. If you add more letters so your total is $125, your max will become $1250. If you remove letters, pages, etc -- your max will be altered "in theory", but your actual max will be what you paid in (so you won't be refunded money). So if you've hit your max of $1000, then added more info so your max went to $1250, then you removed info so your max was $1000 -- your max and amount paid in will remain at $1250.

For digital mailings, 10x the yearly fee applies currently as the max
