To protect your registration payment in the event that you are unable to participate due to an injury, illness, transportation difficulty, or other covered reason, Vertical Insure strongly encourages you to consider purchasing Registration Cancellation Insurance. This will provide relief from the "No Refund Policy" by refunding your registration costs should an incident occur. Registration Cancellation Insurance has no deductible, and the cost of insurance is a small percentage of the program fee.
