Creating Warranty Plans

Step-by-step guide to building and configuring warranty plans on the platform.

Creating Warranty Plans

Warranty plans are the core of your protection program. Each plan defines what’s covered, for how long, and at what price.

Plan Structure

Every plan consists of four components:

  1. Coverage scope: what types of damage or failure are included
  2. Duration: the protection period (e.g., 1 year, 2 years, lifetime)
  3. Pricing model: flat fee, percentage of product price, or tiered
  4. Claim limits: maximum payout per claim or over the plan lifetime

Creating a Plan

Navigate to Warranty Plans → Create New in your dashboard.
