Simply make sure you correctly value your business gadgets and equipment so that you are fully covered with your Dinghy policy.

What does our Business Equipment insurance cover?

  • We cover loss, theft and damage to any equipment that is owned by your company.
  • We cover many kinds of business equipment, so for example, if you’re looking for Macbook Pro insurance, as long as it’s business equipment this is the place to come.
  • Our insurance covers you while you are working in a co-working space. So if your equipment is stolen overnight while locked in a shared space, or you go to get a coffee and someone sneaks past the security with your laptop, we’ll cover you. (Like every other insurer, we can’t cover you if you leave your equipment unattended in a public place, like a coffee shop so remember to be extra vigilant).

Do I need Business Equipment insurance?

There is no requirement to insure your equipment. But most home insurance policies will exclude coverage for your business equipment, so if you don’t insure it under a business equipment insurance policy you run the risk. Ask yourself, could you afford to lose more than a day or two without your laptop? Get a quote

What level of Business Equipment insurance do I need?

However much equipment you’ve bought under your company!
