The Problem

When someone dies in Portugal, the surviving family — typically in shock and grief — must arrange a funeral within 24-72 hours. They face an opaque, fragmented industry of ~3,500 funeral homes (agências funerárias) with no standardized pricing, no online comparison tools, and aggressive upselling during the most vulnerable moment of their lives.

The average funeral costs €3,000-€5,000, but prices vary wildly: a pine coffin is €400-€800, oak or mahogany can exceed €2,000. Velório (wake) charges add €200-€500 per 12-hour period. Cremation vs. burial, transport, flowers, death certificates — every line item is priced opaquely. The Segurança Social death subsidy of €1,611.39 barely covers half.

There is literally no Portuguese website that lets you compare funeral home prices, read reviews, or pre-plan. Zero.
