We service claims within 5 days. Here's how:
We have a unique 5 day service guarantee(1). Your item's repaired or you're paid out within five days, or your service and the warranty are both free.

We often will reimburse you the full item price. This is especially true for most items below $500, or if it's going to take too long or is too expensive to fix.

Working with us is easy. At time of claim, we'll give you a pre-paid UPS shipping label. For high value items like laptops, cameras and GPS, we'll also give you a free shipping box to keep your item safe. Larger items like bigger TVs and major appliances get free in-home service.

It's all in your control. You get email updates at every step, and you can always log on to our site to track your claim.

1. The guarantee only applies to US customers. For big items with in-home service, we will have assigned you a local store within 5 business days of being notified of a valid issue. We cannot guarantee repair times for in-home service since you must schedule the repairs. The guarantee does not include transit times or shipping times.

Care Plan Details
Why a warranty choice is needed
  • Your money is retailer profit. Less than 25% of what you pay for a warranty is used on claims.
  • Sales people have quotas. They care only about selling their warranty - not what it does for you.
  • Claims are handled by 3rd parties - whose main incentive is to reduce claims and lower costs.
  • It's painful to claim. It takes too long, and there is too much fine print and ways to deny.
In business since 1999, SquareTrade is the largest independent warranty provider and the only warranty consistently rated 5-stars by consumers.

Warranties haven't always made sense. For too long, your only warranty option has been the warranty offered by the retailer. This warranty is typically over-priced, pushed by quota-driven sales people, and serviced by 3rd parties focused on reducing claims and keeping costs low. A warranty reliant on you forgetting about it or keeping paperwork around for 3 years.

With SquareTrade, you have a choice: Our warranties are available for ALL your electronics and appliances, whether you buy them at Best Buy, eBay or any other store.

Take Part in the Warranty Revolution: Just say No to mediocre warranties when the pushy sales person pesters you. And know that you can shop for your electronics anywhere, and then come to SquareTrade and get a better warranty with us.

Amazing Prices
Dell laptop warranty - save $180 Our warranties for new, store-bought items generally cost 10-15% of item price for 3 years of coverage (some exceptions apply). These prices are on average 40% less than other warranties you find at retailers. SquareTrade cuts out the middleman - the retailer. We pass these savings back to you. It's pretty simple, really.

We also provide unique and specialized coverage for eBay items as well as some used and refurbished items. Pricing and coverage for these items may be different.

One other great thing about our warranty - if your item's less than $500, you generally get full money back in case of a valid issue. With the way electronics prices come down, this allows you to go buy the latest, greatest, full-featured model.

We take care of you within 5 days OR your warranty and service are free.

Filing a Claim. Do it online or just call us from 6am to 5pm Pacific Time - M-F. It's quick and easy.

Paperwork. If the item was bought on eBay, no papers / receipts are needed. For store-bought items, we'll need a copy of the receipt - you can also send it to us at time of purchase of warranty, and we'll keep it on file for you.


You send it in (most items). We'll give you a pre-paid UPS shipping label. Print it out, box up your item and mail it to our repair depot. Laptops, TVs - pls. read the Special Treatment Box on the right side.

We take a look and decide how to process your claim.
  • Reimburse: For most items below $500, or it's going to take too long or is too expensive to fix, we'll pay you the entire purchase price of your item. If you use our shipping label, we'll deduct that from your final payout. (With our bulk rates, this amounts to $5-7 for most items).
  • Repair: Otherwise, our experts will fix your item and we'll mail your item back to you at no cost.
  • No cheap refurbs: We will not replace your item with a refurbished model. With a reimbursement from SquareTrade, you can go out and get a newer model for the same price you paid originally.
We keep you updated. At every step of the way, we email you.

We have a unique 5 day service guarantee. We will reimburse the full item price OR fix your item and ship it back within 5 business days of receiving it at the depot. For large items with in-home service, a local technician will contact you to schedule service within 5 business days of claim approval. (Repair times for in-home service are not guaranteed since repairs are scheduled by the customer.)

If we don't meet our service guarantee, tell us. We will gladly make your warranty free of cost to you. The service guarantee does not apply to Canadian residents - however we will try to expedite their repairs as much as possible.

Special treatment
For laptops, we send out a pre-paid express shipping kit specially made to keep your computer safe during transit. It's sent back the same way.
For big items like desktop computers, televisions larger than 37" and appliances, we arrange for a top local-to-you shop to have a look, either at the shop or in your home. We pick up the tab, naturally.

Accidental Damage from Handling
Laptop with coffee spill
Accidental Damage from Handling (ADH) guards you against life's little mishaps, whether you drop your cell phone on the street or splash coffee on your laptop.

Availability: ADH can be purchased for most new, store-bought items - laptops, cameras, cell phones, MP3 players etc. It is not available for used or refurbished items, or for most items bought on eBay. Actual availability on your specific item can be determined by getting a quote and viewing the options on the checkout page.

ADH must be added to your Care Plan at the time of Care Plan purchase; it cannot be added retroactively. ADH must also be purchased within 30 days of when you bought your item. ADH coverage begins on the 31st day after the item's purchase - issues in the first 30 days are not covered.

Deductible: There is a $50 deductible when claiming on a damaged item. If your issue falls under the standard Care Plan terms (i.e., a mechanical or electrical failure), no deductible applies.

Exclusions: ADH does not include loss, willful damage or damage occurring through gross misuse of the item. The damage must have occurred unintentionally while the item was being used as intended.

Other Great Features
Other great features that make us easy to use.

Manage it Online. All your warranties are online. You can view, print, cancel, transfer, and even file a claim online and keep tabs on its progress.

Cut the Paperwork. If the item was bought on eBay, no papers / receipts are needed. For store-bought items, we'll need a copy of the receipt - you can also send it to us at time of purchase of warranty, and we'll keep it on file for you.

No shoe-boxes full of warranty cards with SquareTrade. No matter where you buy the item.

You Know Us. We sold you the warranty and we'll service it. Our business is based around winning your repeat business. We're accountable to you.

Other warranties - do you even know who you'll talk to at claims time? 3rd party servicers don't deal with consumers directly, they have no interest in your repeat business.

Make Informed Decisions. You can take up to 30 days from item purchase to decide if you want a warranty. Take your time, read about us and what we can do for you, make an informed decision.

Always In Touch. When you file a claim and we receive your item, we'll take care of you in 5 days, and we'll also keep you updated at each step via email. You can also always just log on to our website and check the updated status there.

Get Better Products. The last thing you want when your item breaks down is a cheap refurbished item that is 2 generations old. If your item breaks and we can't fix it, we'll reimburse your full item purchase price. That's money you can use towards the latest and greatest.

Want to know what happens when you send your 2-year old iPod in on a store warranty? Yup - you get a 2-year old iPod.

Transfer or cancel at any time. No excuses necessary. If you don't need your warranty any more, feel free to cancel or transfer at any time. If you cancel, we'll even give you your money back, pro-rated for the time you haven't used.

Ever heard of a store giving you a partial refund for a warranty you've already spent 6 months on? No, we didn't think so. But it makes sense, doesn't it?

Always a Better Choice
We are a direct seller of warranties - this keeps our prices low. We also service our own warranties - we are very proud that our customers give us consistent 5-star ratings.

No matter where you buy your item, we are the best warranty choice. Here's why:
4 reasons you'll never wsant to buy a store warranty again
Our standard warranty covers mechanical and electrical failures that occur during normal use. You get 100% Parts & Labor coverage with zero deductibles. Drops and spills are covered if you purchase Accidental Damage from Handling (only available on some new, store-bought items - deductible applies).

We do not cover pre-existing conditions or issues that occur in the first 60 days from item purchase. You should be covered for these issues by the seller, the marketplace (e.g., eBay), and/or the payment provider (e.g., PayPal or a credit card)
.

At SquareTrade, we make our Service Agreements easy to understand. The following summary should help you to quickly find what you need to know about your coverage. It is followed by the actual Service Agreement itself.

SQUARETRADE SERVICE AGREEMENT SUMMARY

HOW LONG IT LASTS:
  • If your item is new and has a US manufacturer's warranty of at least 90 days ("MSP"), this Service Agreement begins the day you purchased the item and lasts for the number of years of coverage you specify at purchase time.
  • If your item is refurbished and has a US manufacturer's warranty of at least 90 days ("MSP"), this Service Agreement begins upon expiration of manufacturer warranty and lasts for the number of years of coverage you specify at purchase time.
  • If your item is used, or doesn't have a US manufacturer's warranty of at least 90 days ("Other"), then the Service Agreement begins on the 61st day after item purchase and lasts for the number of years of coverage you specify at purchase time.
WHAT IS COVERED:
  • Mechanical and electrical failures that occur during normal use of your item. Your item is covered for up to the full purchase price of your item (tax and shipping are excluded).
  • Some examples of covered issues include computer hard drive failures, iPod batteries that stop charging, cell phone keypads that get stuck, and digital camera sensor failures.
  • If Accidental Damage from Handling (ADH) Protection was purchased, the Service Agreement expands to include damage from liquid spills, item drops, or any other accidental damage. ADH coverage begins 30 days after purchase, and does not cover willful damage, negligent use, theft or loss. A $50 deductible applies on ADH-related claims. ADH is not offered on all items.
  • ADH coverage begins 30 days after purchase, and does not cover willful damage, negligent use, theft or loss. A $50 deductible applies on ADH-related claims. ADH is not offered on all items
HOW THE COVERAGE WORKS:
  • Reimbursements: Often times, reimbursing you the full cost of the item is faster and more cost-effective. If your item's shippable, we will provide you with a pre-paid shipping label. We generally pay claims (minus the minimum postage fee for the label) within 3-5 business days of item receipt.
  • For items still covered by a manufacturer warranty at the time of claim: First, we will help you file a claim with your manufacturer.

    • If the manufacturer replaces or repairs your item , your SquareTrade Care Plan will cover your manufacturer repaired or replaced item.
    • If the manufacturer refuses to honor their warranty because they consider your item grey market or not purchased from an authorized retailer, we will still cover you.
  • If we decide to repair, here's how the coverage works:

    • For Shippable Items: We will give you a pre-paid shipping label (for laptops and TVs, we will mail you a shipping kit to ensure item safety). Once you've shipped your item to our service depot, we will repair it within 3-5 days and then ship it back to you at no cost to you. Laptops get express shipment both to and from our depot.
    • For Desktop Computers, Televisions over 37 inches and Large Appliances: We will help you schedule an appointment with a local repair facility for in-home service and we will pay the repair facility directly.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED: Refer to the details of the contract for the full list, but there are 5 notable exclusions to your coverage.

  • Product failures within the first 60 days: We don't cover items that are dead on arrival or that fail within the first 60 days.
  • Accidental damage: Unless Accidental Damage from Handling Protection is purchased, we don't cover items that are accidentally damaged - such as water damage, dropped iPods, and cracked laptop screens.
  • Accessories and Consumer replaceable parts: We don't cover accessories and parts that are meant to be replaced by the consumer, such as batteries and ink cartridges.
  • Software: We don't cover software issues, including software for computers, cell phones and PDAs.
  • Certain Types of Items. Items used in a commercial setting (e.g., an office printer) or fraudulently misrepresented are not covered.
HOW TO GET SERVICE: Simply log into your account on SqaureTrade and go to My Warranties and select the Claims tab. Select the correct item, the reason for the claim, and its specific issue from the drop-down menus. Also briefly describe the problem in the next box below. You'll also be asked a few questions that will help us isolate the likely problems. You will be contacted shortly after you submit your claim with instructions on how to proceed next.

Typically, we process your claim the same day and repair or reimburse you within 3-5 business days of receiving your item.
  • For items bought outside of eBay: you need to have a copy of the item's receipt (with the purchase date and price) on file with SquareTrade before a claim can be processed. You can email or FAX a copy of your receipt at any time.
  • For items bought on eBay: SquareTrade keeps a copy of the eBay auction information in our records, so you do not need to submit a receipt at any time.
DEDUCTIBLES: There are no deductibles for standard contract issues. Claims made under Accidental Damage from Handling coverage will incur a $50 deductible

REFUND POLICY: We will provide you with a full refund if you cancel your Service Agreement 60 days from purchase of the Care Plan. If you choose to cancel your Service Agreement after this period, we will pro-rate your refund based on how much time has passed. You can also transfer your Service Agreement at any time at no cost.
