Still have questions?

Is there a subscription? No. You pay once, and there's nothing more to pay.

Can I try it first? Yes. Use a memorial free for as long as you like before deciding.

What if I change my mind? Within 14 days you can have your money back, as long as neither the PDF Memorial Book nor the Memorial Slideshow has been created. How refunds work.

Who takes the payment? Paddle, on our behalf. It shows as CHERISHED on your statement.

Who will help me? We are a small family business in Coventry, and we look after everyone the same way. Whichever you choose, including the free one, you get real, personal support from the people who built Cherished Book. Drop us a line. We read and reply to every message ourselves.

Funeral director or celebrant? Partners pay $15 per memorial, with the first month free. How partnering works.
