Going on a trip: preconceived ideas about our protection
When preparing for a trip, the question of insurance is often the last to arise. We're so focused on our itinerary, what's in our suitcase, and planning the perfect vacation, that our protection is often overlooked. Beyond not thinking about it or wanting to take care of it, a large majority of travelers think that their health insurance, their mutual or their Premium bank card is more than enough. And this is precisely where the shoe pinches.
Among the received ideas inherent in travel, that of protection by our credit card reigns at the top of the podium.
Because if it secures its owner in France, it is quite different in the rest of the world.
You should know that each country has its own rules, its own health rates.
In the event of a problem or accident in a foreign country, the bank card will reimburse up to a certain amount, rarely sufficient to cover all the costs.
Costs that will also have to be advanced before being reimbursed after long months of waiting.
Yupwego was born from this observation with an ambition, that of protecting travelers effectively with a contract adapted to their journey.
