Do I need insurance for an online store?

Whilst an online store doesn’t have a physical premise to insure, there are still other types of insurance to consider.  Public and products liability is still required for the products being sold online.  Stock insurance still applies if stock is kept at a warehouse or residential premises ready for delivery to customers.  Workers compensation is still a legal requirement for any business with employees, regardless of whether they operate from a physical location or online.

What is a Certificate of Currency?
A Certificate of Currency is issued by your Insurer as proof that you have an active policy in place.  It is a document on Insurer letterhead, which outlines your cover and your policy period. In order to obtain a Certificate of Currency from your Insurer, the policy must be either paid in full or paid via monthly instalments.

A Certificate of Currency can only be issued once an insurance policy has been bound and paid for in full.  An insurance broker with the required binding authority can issue a Certificate of Currency on behalf of an insurer (called a Certificate of Insurance) as soon as payment for the policy has been received. Some brokers also offer Certificates of Insurance to their clients for a non-refundable deposit payment, typically around $100.

If you need a fast Certificate of Currency, Westralian Insurance can help.  Call our knowledgeable, fully qualified team today on (08) 9302 1388 or visit www.westralianinsurance.com.au
