Digital travel insurance

Access your travel insurance directly on your smartphone

The difference between a normal and a digital travel insurance is that the digital travel insurance is not stored in the form of a letter, but electronically on a mobile device. The digital travel insurance is usually stored in the Google Wallet Wallet or Apple Wallet. Customers can simply download the cards online and can access it on their cell phone at all times. The great advantage for end customers is not only the simplified handling. In addition to that, an electronic passport such as the digital travel insurance, can be easily updated at any time. The timely provision of digital passports not only increases customer loyalty, but also saves unnecessary paper, printing and distribution costs for vendors and companies at the same time. Kortpress makes it easy to create digital passports while offering numerous features that allow you to customize and adapt your passport to your personal requirements.

Digital

The term "digital" is on everyone's lips and in countless media, but is still a big unknown for many companies. Digital means, that data of all kinds is presented in the form of a combination of numbers. The opposite of digital would be analog. Although analog data is generally more stable, digital data is easier to share and access and can theoretically be passed on indefinitely without generation loss, provided that it is migrated into new, stable formats as required. For this reason, it is a preferred method of information retention for many companies around the world. The more frequent use of the term digitization comes about in connection with the digital revolution and Industry 4.0. Digitization generally refers to the changes in processes, objects and events that occur as a result of the increasing use of digital devices. Meanwhile practically all industries profit through digitization.

Travel insurance

A travel insurance is a type of health insurance that also applies in other countries outside the EU. It covers treatment - but also transportation costs that a conventional health insurance would not cover. A travel insurance makes sense if there is no social security agreement with the respective country. Such an agreement assures the traveler that costs will be covered even without a travel insurance. In some countries, however, processing can be lengthy and complicated without a travel insurance. In such cases, and in distant countries, a travel insurance is useful, and often not much more expensive. The important thing to keep in mind is how long the trip may last for a legitimate claim. On average, the maximal period of time lies between 40 to 70 days. The frequency of travel, on the other hand, does not matter. In addition, the travel insurance only applies if the Foreign Office has not issued a travel warning for the country in question.
