How to Create a Memorial Page
Creating a memorial page takes less time than you think — and it can start for free, right now. Here are the steps, from zero to a complete tribute.
Losing someone you love brings an overwhelming wave of things to handle. Creating a digital memorial shouldn't be one of the complicated tasks. On Lifemory, you can build a basic memorial page in less than 10 minutes. Here's exactly how.
Step 1: Create a Free Account
Everything begins with a Lifemory account — free, no credit card required. Visit lifemory.eu, click 'Create memorial' and enter your email address. You'll receive a confirmation link in your inbox.
- Email and password — that's all you need
- No credit card required for the free plan
- Email confirmation arrives in seconds
Step 2: Add the Basic Details
Once logged in, you create the memorial profile. The required fields are minimal: the person's name and a profile photo. Everything else — biography, birth and death dates, birthplace — can be filled in at any time.
- Full name
- Birth date and death date (optional)
- A clear profile photo
- A few lines of biography
Step 3: Add Photos and Stories
This is the heart of the memorial page. You can upload photos from your phone or computer, arrange them chronologically and add captions. You can write stories or memories directly on the page. There's no storage limit.
- JPG, PNG or WEBP photos
- Interactive timeline with dates and captions
- 'Memories' section with written stories
- Video and audio (full plan)
Step 4: Invite Family
A memorial page comes alive through contributions from multiple people. Invite siblings, children, friends as 'collaborators' — they can add photos and stories, without being able to delete what you have added.
Step 5: (Optional) Order the QR Plaque
If you want to connect the digital memorial to a physical object — a plaque on a grave, a bracelet or a pendant — you can order from the Lifemory products page. The QR code on the product leads directly to the memorial page you just created.
- Bohemia ceramic plaque for the grave (~€99)
- Memorial bracelet or mini urn pendant
- Free delivery in Europe
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to create a memorial page?
The basic plan is completely free — no time limit, no credit card. It includes a profile photo, simple timeline and shareable link. The full plan (with unlimited photos, video, audio and QR plaque) costs approximately €99, one-time payment.
Can I edit the page after publishing?
Yes, at any time. There is no 'final published' state — the memorial page is permanently editable. You can add, modify or delete content at any time, as long as you are logged in as administrator.
How long does it take to create the page from scratch?
A basic page — account + profile + a few photos — can be created in 10-15 minutes. A complete page, with a rich timeline and detailed stories, is built over time with contributions from multiple family members.
Can I create a memorial page for someone still alive?
Yes. Some families create memorial pages for elderly grandparents as an act of love and preparation. The living person can actively contribute their own memories.
There is no perfect moment to create a memorial page. But there is an optimal moment: before memories fade, before photos are lost, while we still have the people who know the stories. Start today — with what you have.
