It’s a great day to be a Marble member! Today, we’re pleased to announce the launch of our partnership with battleface, our preferred partner for travel protection.
Why battleface?
We believe battleface provides the easiest way for Marble members to get the benefits of travel protection. And what makes battleface particularly great is that they offer custom solutions, allowing you to select only the benefits you'll need. Plus, the whole process of purchasing a plan through battleface will only take you a few minutes online.
You can insure all types of trips with them, from work to leisure (to (amazingly!) outer space travel, whenever that becomes available. Or so we’re told!). They cover cancelled trips, medical expenses, lost or delayed baggage, accidents, and more — pretty much wherever you travel, worldwide.
One Reason Why You Should Pat Yourself on the Back for Getting Travel Protection
Many people think that the trip protection their credit cards offer is enough to cover a whole trip. But that may not be the case!
Some, but not all, credit cards offer travel protection benefits. Generally, for benefits such as trip cancellation, the card will only cover the cost of travel arrangements purchased with that card, and there may be a limit as to the total amount that can be covered. The best bet? Don’t assume anything – check with your credit card company to determine if any benefits are provided, and if so, exactly what they are and the maximums payable. You may well find that you need travel protection through battleface to fill in the gaps of any benefits offered by your credit card provider.
For example, battleface offers benefits that may not be provided by a credit card, such rental vehicle damage, vacation rental damage, and even pet coverage.
With battleface, you can fill in any gaps in the coverage provided by your credit card take and advantage of plans that are entirely customizable for your travel needs — including domestic and international travel, cruise ship trips, vacation rentals. You name it, they’ve got it!
What to Know Before Buying Travel Protection
To get a quote from battleface, you’ll need to have a few pieces of info handy: namely, where you're going, how long you’ll be there, and the total cost of any non-refundable purchases (such as your airfare or any prepaid holiday packages).
From there, just log into your Marble account and head to the Marble Marketplace to find the battleface link. You can also visit the battleface site directly. However you get there, you’ll be asked to provide some basic information, including your age, where you live, and your trip details.
From there, you can expect the process of finalizing your quote to take just a little over a minute.
And a final tip: plans are 100% customizable, so you can add on anything you need — from pet protection and medical coverage (that includes coverage for sickness due to COVID) to reimbursements for lost or stolen luggage.
Once you’ve purchased a plan from battleface, log back into your Marble account and add the confirmation document to your account under the “Other Insurance Documents” section. That way, you’ll have all your plan details handy whenever you may need them. And with travel protection in place, all that’s left is for you to start the countdown to vacation!
