⚠︎ The Importance of Not Waiting

Age-based dues reward early membership. More importantly, life insurance becomes harder to obtain as you age. A poor health diagnosis can make insurance impossible to qualify for, leaving only expensive out-of-pocket options. Secure your membership and insurance today at current rates.

Cryopreservation Member

Cryopreservation members must have approved funding in place and have filled out all Cryopreservation Member agreements. Most of the agreements can be completed online, but the Authorization to donate remains document which states your remains are coming to Alcor must be notarized (US Citizens only). Two witnesses are required, who are not family members, to sign the contracts. The Consent to be Cryopreserved and the Authorization to Donate Remains must be physically signed with ink. If you need assistance in completing these contracts, please contract the Membership Department.

The cost of cryonics is similar to other complex medical procedures in wide use today. Like these procedures, cryonics is affordable to nearly everyone through insurance. The key, however, is having life insurance or other financial arrangements in place in advance of need. Most people could not afford heart surgery if suddenly faced with having to pay the full cost in cash. Cryonics is no different. The large sums required at the time of these procedures can be made affordable if appropriate steps are taken while one is still healthy.
