Read this before the tiers below
Final Tail has not set prices for its listing tiers and has no payment system connected. That means there is no checkout on this page, and no price shown, because either would be made up. What you can do today is claim your listing, send corrections, add a missing business, all free, and register interest in a paid tier so we can tell you what it costs when we know.
What is still to be decided: A pricing decision, and a payment provider connected to a billing route with webhook handling. Until both exist, the two paid tiers below are descriptions of what we intend to offer, not things you can buy today.
Tiers
The three listing levels
Every feature listed is one the current data model can actually deliver. Anything it cannot is in the next section rather than quietly implied here.
Free listing
Live now
Every provider we list. There is no charge and never has been.
This is how every one of our listings works today. Nothing on Final Tail is paid for.
Accurate core business details: name, location, contact details and website
Your services recorded field by field, from your own published information
Any starting price you publish, recorded with a link to where we found it
Corrections, at any time, for free, whether or not you have claimed the listing
Inclusion in the directory, locality pages and the comparison tool on the same terms as everyone else
A last-checked date so families can see how current the information is
Providers who want to show more of what they actually do.
We are not selling this yet. There is no price and no checkout, because neither has been decided. You can register interest and we will come back to you when it opens.
Everything in the free listing
An expanded service presentation, with the detail your own pages carry
Additional approved business content on your profile
More prominent direct contact actions on your listing
Highlighted service details where your data supports them
Manual review before anything is published, and a clearly labelled status
Providers who want visible, labelled prominence in one locality.
Not sold and not active. No paid placement exists anywhere on Final Tail. The rules that would govern it are already published on our methodology page.
Everything in the enhanced listing
A clearly labelled sponsored placement in one agreed locality
Limited availability, so a locality is never crowded with sponsors
Manual suitability review before placement, and the right for us to decline
No change to any recorded fact about your business
How it would look to a family
Sponsoredplacement in your locality
Labelled in text, visually distinct, and never blended into the organic list.
How much does an enhanced or featured listing cost?
We have not decided, and we are not going to put a number on this page before we have. When we set prices we will publish them here. Register interest and we will tell you directly rather than making you check back.
Why is there no buy button?
Because there is no payment system connected. A checkout button that cannot complete a purchase is worse than no button, and we would rather this page be plainly unfinished than quietly broken.
Would paying move me up the page?
No. We do not sell rank. A sponsored placement is a labelled, separate slot in one locality. Organic listings are ordered by relevance to the location, and that ordering is not for sale.
Would paying change what my listing says about my services?
No. Paying changes presentation, never a recorded fact. If your data says we have not confirmed aquamation, that is what it will say on a featured listing too, until you send us something that confirms it.
Would a sponsored listing be obvious to families?
Yes, and deliberately so. It is labelled in text next to the listing, it is visually distinct, and it is excluded from structured data that would imply an organic ranking. A family who cannot tell what they are looking at has been misled, and that is not a business we want.
Can I advertise on the grief support pages?
No. We list no providers on those pages at all, at any price. A page about bereavement should not double as advertising.
Before you get in touch
Our research methodology explains what we check, what we do not, how we treat pricing and service areas, and why we do not publish ratings. It is the fastest way to understand how your listing works and what we can and cannot change.
Final Tail is an independent directory of pet cremation and aftercare providers across Australia. We collect provider details from public listings, provider websites and information shared with us. Services, availability and pricing may change, so please confirm directly with the provider before making arrangements.
