Rainprotection insurance program

If you do not have insurance, or you would rather not use your own insurance, (similar to when you rent a car – so that claims would not be filed against your policy), we have set up a program with Rainprotection Insurance through which, you can purchase compliant insurance instantly online.

Benefits of using this program:

  • No Deductible – unlike your corporate policy, Rainprotection’s policy has no deductible. Should there be a claim, you will have no out of pocket costs and your future rates will not go up since you would not need to submit a claim on your policy.

  • No Hassles – you will not need to go back and forth with your broker adding additional insureds and making your insurance compliant with show requirements.

  • Coverage for exhibitors who do not have an existing policy.

  • Coverage for international exhibitors whose insurance will not cover them in the U.S.A.
