Using the Pontis medallion for my father before he passes has been such a beautiful way to commemorate his life and be thankful for everything he did for me as a father.

My mother was always so meticulous in capturing every moment of my siblings and I growing up. It felt so good knowing I could give back to her and do the same

Julia, Arizona
I always loved my grandmother and so her passing away was difficult for my family. I'm grateful to be able to see her life visually every time we go and visit her resting place.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an "online memorial"?
An Online Memorial is a tribute website dedicated to the life and memory of someone who has passed away. It allows you to preserve and share your loved ones' legacy with friends and family.
Memorial sites usually include an Obituary and Timeline, telling the life story of your loved ones. It can include photos and video galleries to keep memories alive.
It is a space for legacy where life stories live forever.
Why are memorial sites so popular?
Memorial websites make it super easy to keep everyone in the know when someone passes away, regardless of their location. When someone close to you dies, the last thing many people want is to have to reach out to hundreds of people to communicate key information. Memorial websites also give people the opportunity to connect with each other and support one another after a death. The process of sharing photos and stories and reconnecting with others who knew the same person can make a world of difference when processing grief. In addition, with Pontis anyone who ever comes to visit the gravestone can see the life and memories of that individual as well.
Why do I have to pay - whereas other websites propose Memorials for free?
The websites proposing "free service" often rely on advertising or sell their consumer data. They place ads on your Memorial page or use your data for commercial / marketing purposes.
Besides, they propose a "fake free service": limited features, maximum 5 photos in the gallery, no videos… You have to upgrade to a 'premium account' to use their service properly.
More importantly, they charge your contributors for various "widgets" when they posts: virtual flowers, candles, "lovekits", etc.
Pontis is ad-free, every user is premium, everything is included: all the features, lifetime guarantee on storage space with unlimited content. We have to pay our developers to add new features, our designers to create new designs, our customer service agents - but also pay for hosting, photography rights, etc.
According to a study by the National Funeral Directors Association, the average cost of a funeral in the US was $7,848 in 2023. That is why we try to keep our fee as low as possible without losing out on product quality.
How long will the Memorial website stay online?
Forever, with the one-time charge.
We are committed to keep your page forever and won't ever discontinue it.
In case our company stops its activity in a distant future, we have planned a fund to keep paying for Hosting even after the company ceases to exist.
