Additional Insureds for One-Day Vendor Insurance Policies

Need to add an additional insured (AI) to your vendor insurance policy? No problem! We make adding an AI to your plan free and easy (or add unlimited AIs for a small fee).

Additional insureds are another person, organization, or entity that could be covered by your policy if you’re responsible for an accident at their event or on their property. 

AIs are typically event planners, venues, cities, or property managers. They cannot include you, other businesses you own, friends or family, employees, or other vendors.
