These are the primary reasons we require your e-mail address.

Secure online purchase at travelinsure.com
Several of our insurance plans offer an online enrollment option. At Travel Insurance Services, we understand your concerns about online security and work closely with our programmers to keep our forms on a highly secure ordering environment so you can enroll in our travel insurance plans with confidence.

We use Secure Socket Layers (SSL), the industry standard in transferring information to process your orders. The SSL encrypts, or translates, your order information into a highly indecipherable code, which is processed immediately.

When you are ready to enroll in one of our plans, you will move into the secure area of our site. A warning window may pop up to notify you that you are entering this "safe" area. Once you've entered, the beginning of the page address (URL) will change from http to https, to let you know you are in a secure area. Also, a key or a closed padlock icon will appear in the lower right corner of most browsers to notify you of this change. You will remain in this secure zone for the purchase process. If one of these icons does not appear, please contact Travel Insurance Services.
