Give the families you serve something that lasts.
Funeral homes, hospices, senior living communities, estate attorneys and advisors refer families to Existenz. We handle everything with care; you earn 15–20% of every order, with no cost and no admin.
The obituary was not enough.
In aftercare
In the weeks after a service, families often wish they had more than a four-paragraph obituary and a folder of photographs. A Memorial Biography or Memorial Film is the aftercare gesture that answers that, introduced by you, made by us.
In pre-need and planning
Pre-need conversations, estate planning and wealth transitions all raise the same quiet question: what of the person survives the paperwork? A life story, a film or a voice archive is the answer advisors can put on the table.
While they are still here
Hospice teams and senior living communities meet families who say the same thing: we nearly left it too late. A recorded conversation with a professional interviewer is a gift a family can give while the telling is still possible.
You introduce. We do everything else.
Sign up
You receive your partner code and a partner kit. No fees, no minimums, no exclusivity.
Introduce, when it's right
During aftercare, pre-need planning or a retirement conversation, always on your timing, never ours.
The family contacts us
Your code travels with their enquiry and is recorded automatically. We take it from there, gently.
You are paid monthly
15% of every completed order, 20% as a Preferred or Founding Partner, within 30 days of the family's final payment.

| Paid | Monthly, by e-transfer or cheque, within 30 days of the family's final payment. No caps. |
| Family Credit option | Your commission applied instead as a discount to the family's invoice, or donated to a charity you name |

| Our conduct | We never contact a family without their request, and we follow your lead on timing |
What a year of referrals looks like.
A funeral home that refers eight Memorial Biographies, three remote Legacy Films and one remote Memorial Film in a year generates $23,660 in orders, and earns $3,549 at the standard 15% rate, or $4,732 at 20%. That is a multiple of what tribute slideshows return today, for work you introduce in a single sentence.
Try your own mix, the calculator uses our published prices. Estate attorneys and advisors should note the Heritage Book and the Founder's & Executive Legacy, which is quoted individually and commissions at the same rates.
Commission is calculated net of taxes, shipping and travel pass-throughs; published prices shown. Memorial Film shown at the remote price.

Existenz is complementary to your tribute videos and keepsakes, not a replacement, premium, referral-only, and never sold with urgency. We follow your lead on timing, our copy is respectful in every touchpoint, and we never contact a family who has not asked us to.
Every family owns what we make on final delivery: full copyright, downloadable masters, and a deletion right. You are never asked to vouch for terms we would not sign ourselves.
Join the first twenty-five.
Founding Partner terms, 20% for your first twelve months, are open to the first 25 funeral homes. We reply within one business day; no obligation, and we're glad to visit in person in a service city.
What does the programme cost us?
Nothing. No fees, no minimums, no admin, you introduce Existenz when it feels right, and we do everything else. Either party may end the agreement with 30 days' notice.
Does this compete with our tribute videos?
No. Tribute slideshows serve the service itself; Existenz makes documentary films, written biographies and books over weeks, a premium aftercare product at a different price point, referral-only. We state this plainly on the page your families see.
When and how are commissions paid?
Monthly, by e-transfer or cheque, within 30 days of the family's final payment, calculated net of taxes, shipping and travel pass-throughs, with a statement listing each order by your partner code.
Can the commission go to the family instead?
Yes. The Family Credit option applies your commission as a discount to the family's invoice, or donates it to a charity you name, useful where your rules on third-party payments are strict, and some firms simply prefer it.
