    This app is beautiful and super easy to use! It's super easy to get insurance for the weddings I shoot where the venues require insurance. I can just buy it on the app with 3 clicks and I'm done.

    I love this idea ????!! I needed to have proof of liability to present my proposal; got it on the spot. I didn't win the bid but I didn't get stuck with costly insurance, either!!

FAQs

Why do I need small business insurance?

The bottom line is that small business insurance protects your bottom line. It can help you protect your profits from expensive claims, inspire confidence in current and potential clients, and help you access more business opportunities. In fact, clients and businesses across industries often ask for proof of insurance from the people they contract with. Some states even require insurance and proof that you have it. That means that if you want to get the best jobs, you’ll want to have a Certificate of Insurance (COI) readily available.

How quickly will I get a Certificate of Insurance?

Certificates of Insurance are available instantly after purchase of a policy through Thimble. You can get unlimited Certificates of Insurance at no additional charge and easily add your customer as an Additional Insured on your policy.
