The basics - how your policy works

Your TradeMe Insurance cover consists of two vital documents; your policy wording and your certificate of insurance. Both documents provide essential information about your coverage and responsibilities. The policy wording outlines the benefits, exclusions, responsibilities, and limits of your cover.

Your certificate of insurance tells you what assets are covered, what level of cover applies, and any special terms and conditions. The insurer agrees to cover you according to the terms outlined in these two documents, provided you've paid the premium due.
