Our story
We’re a kiwi collaboration. We created Digital Departure for family and friends who have been prevented from holding a physical funeral, but who still want to gather in a timely and meaningful way. Using the Zoom platform, we can incorporate most of the elements you’d expect at a funeral; tributes, music, photos, and the opportunity to connect with others to reflect and share memories.
How we work
We partner with funeral homes to ensure you have the right support during this tough time, and to create an online funeral service your loved one would be proud of.
The technology
Our role is to support you and facilitate the event. We use a combination of Zoom teleconferencing and Broadcast software. This technology allows families to include most elements of a physical funeral; an order of service, images, video, eulogies and tributes; whilst also allowing guests to connect with family and friends before and after the gathering in separate Zoom break-out rooms. We collaborate with funeral homes to ensure you can create a fitting online tribute.
Online Tribute Page
We can create a dedicated tribute page, giving family and friends the option to share photos and videos ahead of the funeral. The tribute page is available online for one year, to be visited at anytime, from any place.
