Insurance tips for your Pokemon Go-obsessed clients
Staff on July 14, 2016
Pokemon Go has yet to officially launch in Canada, but enthusiasts have circumvented region locks to play the game and potentially put themselves at risk for finding dead bodies, getting mugged, having eggs thrown at them or simply hurting themselves because they weren’t paying attention.
If any of your clients are in that boat, the Insurance Information Institute has some tips you can pass along.
First of all, gamers should ensure their homeowners or renters insurance that will respond if they are robbed while out of their house or if they accidentally damage someone else’s property during their quest to capture a “Bellossome.” These policies might also cover clients in the event that Nintendo’s data is stolen, although standalone insurance may be needed.
Car insurance could help cover damage from drivers distracted by Pokeballs.
