The will that doesn't give you the willies.

Yes. What makes a will valid is how it's signed, not who typed it. It must be in writing, and you sign it in front of two adult witnesses who then sign it too. Your will arrives as a PDF with step-by-step signing instructions. Print it, sign it in ink, and it's as valid as one from a law firm.

Two adult witnesses, in the room with you, watching you sign. Then they sign. Pick people who don't inherit under the will: a neighbour, a colleague, a friend. You don't need a lawyer or a JP. Sign in ink, not on a screen, and keep the original somewhere your executor can find it. You can upload a photo of the signed copy to your vault so there's a record of it.

A$149 for an Essential Will or A$399 for a Complete Will, paid once. A mirror will for your partner is +A$99 or +A$199. The Willies Plan is A$5 a month, billed from day one and pre-selected at checkout; untick it if you only want the will. You pay nothing until you've answered every question. For comparison: Safewill A$160, Willed A$159, Bare A$99 for simple estates only, NSW Trustee & Guardian A$462.

Storage for your signed will, unlimited updates and your encrypted digital legacy plan, for A$5 a month. When life changes you tell us what's different, we prepare the new version and you sign it. Cancel any time, no fees. You keep your will and can download it first. Updates stop, and your legacy plan is frozen: still stored and still released to your executors, but you can't edit it unless you restart the plan.

A kit costs about A$30 and nobody checks what you write in it. The usual problems are small: a gift that doesn't cover everything you own, a witness who's also a beneficiary, a signature in the wrong place. Any of them can make part or all of the will fail, and nobody finds out until you're gone. With Willies a person reads every will before it's sent, and the signed copy is kept where your executor can find it. If you're on a full age pension in NSW, NSW Trustee & Guardian will write your will for free; otherwise their standard will is A$462 with an appointment in person.

A blended family, a business, a family trust or SMSF, overseas assets, or children you want protected by a testamentary trust: that's what the Complete Will (A$399) is for. We recommend it from your answers, and you can switch before you pay. After paying you answer extra questions about only the parts that apply to you.

Usually not directly. Super is paid out by your fund under your nomination, and often doesn't form part of your estate. The questionnaire asks whether you've made a binding nomination, and your will covers any super that is paid to your estate. If you run an SMSF, the Complete Will deals with it.

Yes. Updates are part of the Willies Plan: sign in, tell us what's changed, and we prepare the new version for you to sign. There's no limit. If you skipped the plan at checkout, you can add it from your account when you need a change.

A formula in your state's law decides who gets what, usually your partner first, then your children, and it takes no account of your wishes or your situation. It can't name a guardian for your kids, leave anything to a friend, a charity or a stepchild, or choose who's in charge. Your family also has to apply to the court for permission to deal with your estate, which is slower and harder than it would be with a will.

Within 2 business days of paying. A person checks your answers first, then your will is emailed to you and saved in your vault. For a Complete Will, the clock starts once you've answered the extra questions.

You list your wallets, exchanges and online accounts, where the recovery details are kept, and who should get what. It's encrypted on your device before it reaches us, so we can't read it. Opening it takes two keys: one we hold and one in the executor kit you print. After a death is verified, your nominated executor signs in, enters their key, and the plan opens for them.

Never. Your plan records where your keys are, not the keys themselves. If you type something that looks like a recovery phrase, we block it.

Yes. Add a mirror will for your partner at checkout for A$99 (Essential) or A$199 (Complete). The Willies Plan covers you both.
