Creating a Will can feel bigger than it needs to be.
When it comes to writing a Will, many Kiwis think they have two options: pay for traditional legal help, or do it yourself and hope for the best. Both can feel like a barrier - either to your wallet or your peace of mind.
Will Kit Generator gives Kiwis a third option: a simple guided online process that helps you create a clear New Zealand Will in plain English - where you enter your basic information, and your Will builds itself automatically in the background.

This short video shows how Will Kit Generator helps you move from entering your personal details to a clear New Zealand Will that you can preview, review, print, sign, and store.

A simpler way to create your Will online
Will Kit Generator is designed to take you step by step through the main decisions needed for a New Zealand Will.
You do not need to start with all the answers perfectly organised.
The process guides you through the key parts of your Will, including:
- your personal details
- who you want to inherit
- how your estate should be divided
- who should carry out your wishes
- whether you want to add extra instructions or wishes
- reviewing your Will before you print and sign it
As you answer the questions, your Will is created in the background.
That means you are not starting from a blank page, trying to work out what legal wording to use, or copying from a random template without knowing whether it fits your situation.
Plain English, not legal guesswork
One of the most important goals of Will Kit Generator is clarity.
Your Will should not be so full of legal jargon that you struggle to understand what it says.
A Will is an important legal document, but it is also a family document. It needs to be clear enough for you to understand now, and clear enough for your Executor and loved ones to understand later.
That is why the guided process focuses on plain English wording, clear decisions, and practical explanations.
You should be able to look at your finished Will and understand what it does.
Preview your Will before you finish
One of the advantages of Will Kit Generator is that you can preview your Will as it is being created.
This helps you check whether your answers are producing the result you expected.
You do not have to wait until the end to discover what the document looks like.
You can review it as you go, make changes, and keep refining it before you print and sign.
Help is available if you need it
A guided Will builder should not leave you feeling alone if one decision makes you pause.
If you are unsure about Executors, Beneficiaries, Gifts, Guardians, your Statement of Wishes, or how to explain something clearly, support is available by live chat or phone.
For a limited time, until 30 June, I also offer an optional free personal review of completed Wills before signing. This can be useful if you have added your own wording or instructions and want another set of eyes before you sign.
Is an online Will legally valid in New Zealand?
Yes, an online Will can be legally valid in New Zealand, provided it is completed properly and signed and witnessed correctly.
Will Kit Generator helps you create the Will document. You then need to print it, sign it correctly, have it witnessed, and store it safely.
We provide an instruction cover sheet that explains the practical signing and witnessing steps, so you know what to do once your Will has been created.
