The Leading Digital Platform for Funeral Homes in Europe
Memcare Group is one of Europe's largest technology providers to the funeral industry. We've built a platform that simplifies operations and makes it easier for funeral homes to grow.
The platform brings case management together with obituaries, memorial pages, digital print, flower sales and accounting integrations. Everything works together from day one.
More than 1,300 funeral homes across Scandinavia, DACH, the UK and Ireland, Poland and the Benelux region run on Memcare today, handling over 200,000 funerals a year. Memcare isn't just software — it's the tool that makes everyday work easier for the funeral home and gives bereaved families a better experience.
