Wouldn't it be nice if you would receive (part of) your money back for your stolen, lost or damaged items? This dream could come true with a purchase protection credit card. Through this insurance, purchases made with the credit card are insured for a certain period against loss, theft and/or damage. The period depends on the card, it can range from 90 days to a year. Imagine: 365 blissful days of protection. The compensation is in many cases limited to a certain total amount per time period or per year.
What does the purchase protection insurance credit card cover? This varies from card to card. In some cases only online or in shop purchases are protected. In other cases your coverage area is restricted to a certain country. Many purchase protection insurance policies have a certain deductible amount, for example of €25 or €50 per incident, this means that this amount is deducted from the amount that you receive for your claim. Furthermore, some purchase protection credit cards include delivery insurance in case your purchase is not or only partially delivered. Or if the delivered product is not what you ordered or you receive it damaged.
The benefits:
- Shop with confidence;
- Shop more safely;
- Live with one worry less, as your purchases are protected;
- Enjoy the fact that you don't need additional insurances for your expensive possessions.
Don't let this luxury get the best of you. Stay alert! You have to report the damage, loss or theft soony after it happened to your credit card provider. And in case of theft or loss, you often have to report this as well to the police.
Is every type of purchase included in the purchase protection insurance? This depends on the card, not included items can be cash, traveler's checks, vehicles (land, sea and air), a coin collection, food, smoking articles, second-hand items, jewelry, animals, plants, cell phones or computers. This also can apply to items that are stolen from a vehicle.
What is included or excluded varies from card to card. The same goes for the terms and conditions: the amount, the period, the deductible etc. Therefore it is always wise to check the terms and conditions of your purchase insurance credit card (of choice).
