What is the “Free-look period”
The free-look period is the period of time an insurance purchaser has to review the policy purchased, and if not satisfied, refuse coverage and receive a full premium refund. The free-look period for most states is 10 days. To allow for any delay between purchase and actual receipt of the purchased policy, RentalGuardian is configured to allow the retailer to order cancellation of coverage at the request of their guests for up to 15 days after purchase; afterwards, you can contact [email protected] if you need an exception. Common exceptions include instances where the traveler did not receive the delivered policy and instances where a traveler mistakenly enrolled or was mistakenly enrolled during the booking process.

Product Spotlight: CFAR
Travel protection with Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) coverage is the talk of the industry. For a charge of 9.8% of trip cost, your guest can protect 100% of the booking cost, up to $100,000, for over 30 covered cancellation, interruption, and delay reasons. Additionally, if your guest decides to cancel at least 48 hours prior to the trip departure date, and the reason is not listed in the policy as a covered reason, your guest will still receive a 60% reimbursement on a claim.
CFAR can be purchased within 14 days of booking, provided that the CFAR purchase is not made within 30 days of the trip departure date. CFAR is not available to residents of New Hampshire, New York, and Washington and eligibility is limited to trips of 90 days or less.
Talk about a motivator: whether it’s a pandemic concern, the sudden chance to participate in a Ninja warrior contest, or the guest just doesn’t feel like traveling, your guests can book with confidence knowing that no matter what happens they can purchase CFAR protection, cancel for any reason and still receive the majority of the booking fees back.
