RacePartner™ Launches Race Registration Insurance With Allianz Global Assistance
"Registration insurance gives our clients' participants the confidence that they have a back-up plan when they need to cancel a race for a covered reason," said Robert Anderson, Co-Founder of RacePartner. "Registration Protector solves an important customer service issue for our clients by providing reimbursement for covered cancellations without having to manage or pay for those reimbursements themselves."
Beginning in late summer, Registration Protector will be a new optional benefit to all racers who sign up for events in advance using RacePartner's registration platform. With Registration Protector, a participant who misses an event for a reason such as a covered injury or illness, job loss, transportation delays, military/family/legal obligations, and more can get their registration fees reimbursed.*
"In our opinion, Allianz Global Assistance had the best coverage across the board, and the fact that they also deal directly with the participant was a major benefit. Our goal is to make the online registration portion less frustrating for our clients," said Robert Anderson, Co-Founder of RacePartner. "With Registration Protector, an event director won't have to spend time explaining, arguing or upsetting participants who ask for a refund, nor will they have to deal with the refund process." Registration Protector will refund 100% of insured registration costs, including fees, up to the maximum coverage amount of $10,000 and includes Allianz Global Assistance's 24/7 service and assistance.*
Allianz Global Assistance manages all customer service and claims activity, without risk or management resources from event organizers. "We're pleased to be partnering with RacePartner to offer event participants and organizers the valuable benefits that Registration Protector has to offer," said Mike Nelson, CEO of Allianz Global Assistance USA. "Every year, we provide terrific coverage and outstanding 24/7/365 service and assistance to 13 million customers. We're happy to be able to offer this coverage, service and peace of mind to RacePartner customers and partners."
