Performer Insurance
We cover individual, U.S.-based performers entertaining the public as sole proprietors and independent contractors. Our policy protects against bodily injury to a spectator or property damage to a performing premises.
Insured must have a U.S. mailing address to be eligible for coverage under this policy, and the premium must be paid in US dollars. This is not group coverage, meaning that this policy will only cover you and your performance. Our base policy does not provide coverage to others that work with you.
Please note that bodily injury to a fellow performer insured under this policy during any practice or performance is excluded from coverage.
Coverage territory extends throughout the US (including its territories and possessions), Puerto Rico, and Canada, as well as international waters – but only if injury or damage occurs in the course of transportation between the aforementioned places (e.g. leaving from the US and returning to the US).
Renewing Coverage
Approximately six weeks prior to your expiration, we will mail you an invoice. The information on the invoice is produced from the file that we have created for you, from the information that you have provided. Please review the invoice for any information that has changed and advise us as to what has changed. You can write your changes on the invoice and mail it to us, or log into your online account and submit an account change request.
To renew your coverage you can mail in the invoice with your check or money order, or you can pay online with your credit or debit card. There is a 3.25% service fee for paying with a card. You can avoid this fee by mailing the invoice back with your check or money order.
