outside the U.S. at 1-303-967-1093, within sixty (60) days of the damage

Your questions and send You a claim form. When You submit Your claim,
be sure to include all information regarding Your claim including the time,

If You have insurance (homeowner’s, renter’s, car, employer or any other),
You are required to file a claim with Your insurance company and to
submit a copy of any claim settlement from Your insurance company along
with Your claim form. Purchase Security provides coverage on an “excess”
coverage basis, meaning it does not duplicate coverage, but pays for a
loss only after valid and collectible insurance or indemnity (including, but
not limited to, homeowner’s, renter’s, automobile, or employer’s insurance
policies) has been exhausted. At that point, Purchase Security will cover
the loss up to the amount charged to Your eligible Account, subject to the
terms, exclusions, and limits of liability of the benefit.
This benefit also pays for the outstanding deductible portion of Your
insurance or indemnity for eligible claims. The maximum total limit of
liability is up to ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) per claim occurrence
and fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) per cardholder. You will receive no
more than the purchase price as recorded on the eligible card receipt.

than the value (as described above) of the particular part or parts, stolen
or damaged, regardless of any special value that item may have as part
of such a pair or set, and no more than the proportionate part of an
aggregate purchase price of such pair or set.

• You may receive payment to replace Your item, an amount not more

the dollar amount to replace or repair the item or the program limit,

Extended Warranty Protection
Product warranties can be inconvenient and cumbersome to use.
Let’s say You purchased a great gadget about a year ago, but it just
stopped working, and You can’t find Your sales receipt and warranty
information. For all too common situations like these, Extended Warranty
Protection can help.
Extended Warranty Protection provides You with valuable features that
help You manage, use and extend the warranties for eligible items
purchased on Your covered Account and/or rewards programs associated
with Your covered Account. Services include Warranty Registration
and Extended Protection. You are eligible for this benefit if You are
a cardholder of an eligible card issued in the United States and You
purchase either a portion or the entire cost of the item using Your Account
and/or rewards program associated with Your covered Account.
Here’s how Warranty Registration works
When You purchase an eligible item that carries a manufacturer’s
warranty, You can register Your purchase by calling 1-800-397-9010 or
call collect outside the U.S. at 1-303-967-1093. You can also register
Your purchase online at www.cardbenefitservices.com.
The Benefit Administrator will tell You where to send Your item’s sales
receipt and warranty information, so they can be kept on file should You
need them.
If You choose not to register Your item, be sure to keep Your monthly
billing statement reflecting the purchase, the itemized sales receipt, the
original manufacturer’s written U.S. warranty and any additional warranty
in a safe place. These documents will be required to verify Your claim.
Here’s how Extended Protection works
Your warranty coverage can be doubled up to one (1) additional
year on eligible warranties of three (3) years or less. For example, a
manufacturer’s warranty of three (3) months would be provided with an
additional three (3) months of coverage for a combined total of six (6)
months of coverage, and a warranty for six (6) months would be provided
with an additional six (6) months of coverage for a combined total of
twelve (12) months of coverage. However, if the manufacturer’s warranty
is for three (3) years, it would only be extended one (1) additional year.
This benefit is limited to no more than the original price of the purchased
item (as shown on Your credit card receipt), less shipping and handling
fees, up to a maximum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) per claim,
and fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) per cardholder.
The benefit covers purchases made both inside and outside the U.S.
The eligible item must have a valid original manufacturer’s U.S. repair
warranty of three (3) years or less, store-purchased dealer warranty, or an
assembler warranty.

their motors, equipment, or accessories, including trailers and other

claim may be denied.
The Benefit Administrator will request preliminary claim information,
direct You to the appropriate repair facility, and send You the claim form.

AUTO RENTAL COLLISION DAMAGE WAIVER
No cardholder wants to incur the expense of repairing or replacing a
rented car. But accidents do happen, and vehicles do get stolen. No
matter what happens to Your rental car, You can be covered with Auto
Rental Collision Damage Waiver.
Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver reimburses You for damages caused
by theft or collision—up to the Actual Cash Value of most rented cars.
Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver covers no other type of loss. For
example, in the event of a collision involving Your rented vehicle, damage
to any other driver’s car or the injury of anyone or anything is not covered.
9
BR405766_M125926_LetterSize.indd 10 7/24/18 4:45 PM
Rental periods of thirty-one (31) consecutive days are covered. (Longer
rental periods, however, are not covered.)
You are eligible if Your name is embossed on an eligible card issued in
the United States or if You are authorized by Your company to rent an
eligible vehicle using the company’s eligible Account, as long the rental
is purchased entirely with the Account. Only You, as the primary renter
of the vehicle, and any additional drivers permitted by the Rental Car
Agreement are covered.
How Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver works with other insurance
Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver covers theft, damage, valid loss-
of-use charges imposed and substantiated by the auto rental company,
administrative fees and reasonable and customary towing charges, due
to a covered theft or damage to the nearest qualified repair facility.
If the Rental Vehicle is for commercial and/or business purposes, Auto
Rental Collision Damage Waiver benefit acts as primary coverage, and
You may be reimbursed for up to the actual cash value of the vehicle.
If the rental vehicle is for personal reasons, this benefit is secondary
coverage, supplemental to Your personal automobile insurance, meaning
You may only be reimbursed for the amount of Your personal insurance
deductible or other charges, including valid administrative and loss-
of-use charges not covered under Your personal insurance policy. If
You are renting outside Your country or residence, or if You do not have
automobile insurance, Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver acts as
primary coverage.
How to use Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver
1. Use Your card to initiate and complete Your entire car rental transaction.
2. Review the auto rental agreement and decline the rental company’s
collision damage waiver (CDW/LDW) option, or a similar provision, as
accepting this coverage will cancel out Your benefit. If the rental
company insists that You purchase their insurance or collision damage
waiver, call the Benefit Administrator for assistance at 1-800-397-
9010. Outside the United States, call collect at 1-303-967-1093.
Before You leave the lot, be sure to check the car for any prior damage.
This benefit is in effect during the time the rental car is in Your (or an
authorized driver’s) control, and it terminates when the rental company
reassumes control of their vehicle.
This benefit is available in the United States and most foreign countries
(with the exception of Israel, Jamaica, the Republic of Ireland or
Northern Ireland). However, this benefit is not available where precluded
by law, or where it’s in violation of the territory terms of the auto rental
agreement, or when prohibited by individual merchants. Because
regulations vary outside the United States, check with Your auto rental
company and the Benefit Administrator before You travel, to be sure
that Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver will apply.
Vehicles not covered
Certain vehicles are not covered by this benefit, they consist of expensive,
exotic, and antique cars; cargo vans; certain vans; vehicles with an open
cargo bed; trucks; motorcycles; mopeds; motorbikes; limousines; and
recreational vehicles.

Bentley, Corvette, Ferrari, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Lotus, Maserati, Maybach,
McLaren, Porsche, Rolls Royce, and Tesla. However, selected models of
Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Cadillac, Infiniti, Land Rover, Lexus, Lincoln,
and Range Rover are covered.
An antique car is defined as one that is over twenty (20) years old, or one
that has not been manufactured for ten (10) years or more.
Vans are not covered. But those designed as small-group transportation
vehicles (seating up to nine [9] people, including the driver) are covered.
If You have questions about a specific vehicle’s coverage or
organization where the vehicle is being reserved, call the Benefit
Administrator at 1-800-397-9010 or call collect outside the United
States at 1-303-967-1093.

Vehicle has been stolen, immediately call the Benefit Administrator at 1-800-
397-9010 to report the incident, regardless of whether Your liability has been
established. Outside the United States, call collect at 1-303-967-1093.
You should report the theft or damage as soon as possible but no later than
forty-five (45) days from the date of the incident.
The Benefit Administrator reserves the right to deny any claim containing
charges that would not have been included, if notification occurred before the

Administrator immediately after an incident. Reporting to any other person
will not fulfill this obligation.

for and any amounts that have been paid toward the claim.

following documents, to the Benefit Administrator:

form (Important: This must be postmarked within ninety (90) days* of the
theft or damage date, even if all other required documentation is not yet
available – or Your claim may be denied).

of the Account number) demonstrating that the entire rental transaction
was made on Your eligible Account.

insurance or reimbursement is required.
If the rental was for personal use, a copy of Your primary insurance
policy’s Declarations Page (if applicable) to confirm Your deductible
(This means the document(s) in Your insurance policy that lists names,
