Insurances
- Home insurance includes a leisure-time accident insurance, which covers bodily injury caused by accidents that occur during leisure-time and while participating in recreational sports. Children who participate in competitive sports are covered under the family’s leisure-time accident insurance until the age of 18.
- Home insurance includes liability insurance, which covers bodily injury and property damage caused to a third party while playing golf on a golf course or at a practice area next to a golf course, regardless of legal liability for damages.
- Golf equipment is considered part of household belongings. Home insurance covers household belongings against fire, theft, and water damage. If your Home insurance includes comprehensive contents insurance for household belongings (which is optional), the equipment is also insured against damage caused by sudden and unforeseen external events.
- Golf carts are not defined as household belongings and therefore need to be insured separately, and we recommend comprehensive property insurance.
- If you are going on a golf trip abroad, we recommend the travel insurance cover in home insurance.
- If you own particularly valuable golf equipment where the value exceeds the compensation limits in the comprehensive contents insurance, it's best for you to contact us so we can review the matter together.
General information
- If the family has leisure-time accident insurance, it applies when you participate in recreational sports. Children involved in competitive sports are also covered under the family's leisure-time accident insurance until the age of 18. Therefore, we recommend accident insurance for competitive athletes who are 18 years and older.
- Home Insurance offers you to choose from two different coverage limits and three different deductibles amounts. The selected coverage amount determines the maximum compensation for damages. The cost of insurance varies based on the selected deductible amount. The higher the deductible amount, the cheaper the insurance.
- Home insurance covers you, your spouse or cohabiting partner, and your unmarried children and foster children who share the same legal residence in Iceland. The insurance also applies to your children under the age of 18 who have a different legal residence in Iceland.
- The main advantage of having both credit card travel insurance and home insurance travel coverage is that if the maximum compensation amount is reached under one policy, the other insurance can step in, in the case of extensive damage or loss.
- In case of theft, insurances only apply if general precaution is taken to prevent items from being stolen.
- We advise our customers to keep their payment receipts, so that they can be provided in the event a claim needs to be filed.
