FAQs & Useful Information
Helpful answers about creating and using your document.
How do I create my Divorce Settlement Agreement?
Click Create my Divorce Settlement Agreement and follow the guided questions. Check your details, selections and total, accept the terms, then pay through PayFast to order your personalised document.
What is a Divorce Settlement Agreement?
It puts the arrangements you and your spouse agree on into writing for your divorce. The questionnaire helps you record the relevant terms, including financial arrangements and arrangements concerning children where applicable, in a personalised agreement.
What is included in the R899 price?
R899 is the base agreement price. You receive an editable Word agreement and a DIY divorce guide. Optional additions cost extra; the questionnaire shows your selected total before payment.
Can the questionnaire help us work through our terms?
Yes. The questions can help you and your spouse identify the arrangements to discuss and bring your agreed terms together. It is best to agree the terms first, but you can also use the questions to guide that discussion. If disagreements remain, mediation or legal advice may help you reach agreement before finalising and signing.
What should I have ready before I begin?
Have your marriage details and the arrangements you have discussed ready, including relevant financial and children’s arrangements. The guided questions help you work through the information for your agreement.
What happens after payment?
You receive your editable agreement and DIY guide. Review the document with your spouse, make sure it accurately records your agreed terms, and follow the signing and court steps explained in the guide.
How does the agreement help me complete my divorce?
It records the terms you want the court to consider as part of an agreed divorce. Your DIY guide helps you understand the steps that follow. A settlement agreement is not itself a divorce order: preparing or signing it does not end the marriage, and the court process must still be completed.
Is this the same as buying all my divorce papers?
The settlement agreement records your agreed terms. A summons, particulars of claim and supporting documents are also used in the divorce process. Check the options and documents included in your selection before paying; the base agreement price is not a complete court-filing service.
Can I use the agreement for a DIY divorce or with an attorney?
You can use the agreement as part of preparing an agreed DIY divorce, with the included guide to help you understand the process. You can also ask an attorney to review the agreement or assist with the proceedings. Legal advice, representation and court filing are not included in the base document price.
What if we would benefit from mediation?
Mediation may help you and your spouse resolve outstanding terms. Once you have reached agreement, you can use the questionnaire to record those terms in your document. The questionnaire does not replace mediation or independent advice where those are needed.
What if I do not know where my spouse is?
This product is for recording arrangements agreed with your spouse. If you cannot contact them or arrange service of divorce papers, obtain advice about the appropriate procedure before buying. The questionnaire does not arrange tracing or court permission for alternative service.
Can I pay in instalments?
Pay through PayFast after completing your questionnaire. The payment page shows the methods available for your purchase. If an instalment option is offered, check the provider’s eligibility criteria and terms before selecting it.
