No. Payments are processed via Stripe, a leading secure payment gateway. Life After Me never stores your credit card or banking information. In the Netherlands, you can also pay via iDEAL.

Yes. Life After Me is a Dutch company and all data is hosted on Microsoft Azure EU servers. This means your files are covered by European data protection laws (GDPR). You remain the owner of your data, and you can delete your account and all files at any time.

• Trusted Appointee: A family member or friend you want to access your files (up to 5 people). Their role is personal and emotional — they receive your legacy and memories.

• Expert: A professional (lawyer, notary, advisor) who can upload and manage documents (up to 3). Their role is practical — ensuring legal, tax, and business files are up to date.

This combination covers both personal inheritance and professional continuity.

To maximize value:

• Complete your profile and designate Trusted Appointees.

• Organize files into clear folders (legal, financial, funeral wishes, memories).

• Upload proactively: wills, insurance, ID, property deeds, crypto wallets.

• Leave messages: write personal notes or upload videos for family.

• Notify appointees that your account exists, so they know where to look.

This ensures your account becomes a single source of truth for everything important.

Almost all common file formats are supported, including:

• Documents: Word, Excel, PDF

• Images: JPG, PNG, TIFF

• Videos: MP4, MOV

• Audio files: MP3, WAV
  Just keep in mind your storage limit per plan. Larger files like long videos may require a Premium upgrade.

Yes. The platform is fully mobile-friendly and device-agnostic. You can log in from your smartphone, iPad, or laptop, and upload or manage documents on the go. This is especially helpful for quickly scanning receipts, IDs, or contracts directly into your account.

Getting started is simple:

1. Create an account – sign up with your details and secure login.

2. Upload documents – drag & drop files, photos, videos, or notes into pre-set folders.

3. Assign Trusted Appointees – give selected people access now, later, or after death - you decide.

4. Update anytime – add new documents, change wishes, or revoke access.

You can begin with a free trial and upgrade to Premium for full features, including Trusted Appointee and Expert access.

Yes. Without preparation, families often lose access to:

• Bank accounts with unknown balances

• Life insurance policies that go unclaimed

• Crypto wallets without recovery keys

• Tax or debt obligations that create surprises

Life After Me centralizes these details, preventing costly mistakes and ensuring heirs can quickly access or settle accounts.

Your Trusted Appointee uploads a death certificate. We verify it with the municipality (for NL) or relevant authority. Once validated, only the information you marked “accessible after death” becomes available. To prevent abuse, all appointees receive notifications, and you can revoke access at any time before death.

• Trusted Appointees (up to 5): Family or close friends who can access your chosen files after death (e.g., spouse, children, executor).

• Experts (up to 3): Professionals like notaries, financial advisors, or accountants who can upload/manage documents for you while you’re alive.

This hybrid system ensures both your personal wishes and professional affairs are handled smoothly
