Rent payment insurance protects you when a tenant falls at least 30 days behind on rent during the coverage period and fails to respond to reminders, regardless of the reason. Coverage applies to the full rent amount deposited into the bank account specified in the lease agreement: the base rent, administrative fees, and utility bills (electricity, gas, water). It remains active even if the tenant moves out.

PZU pays compensation for the unpaid period up to an equivalent of 3 monthly rent payments (up to a maximum of PLN 24,000 – you set the total sum when purchasing the policy). The same coverage also applies to lease interruptions, i.e., situations where the rented property temporarily becomes uninhabitable.

Important note: A prerequisite for purchasing the policy and activating coverage with PZU is for the tenant to obtain a Tenant Certificate through the simpl.rent verification process What is tenant verification?. A positive result on at least 2 verification stages is required. Achieving 3 positive results entitles you to an additional discount, making the insurance nearly twice as cheap. The policy must be purchased within 45 days of the Tenant Certificate being issued.

As part of the basic insurance coverage, you receive rent payment protection and legal expenses. Additionally, you can expand your rent payment insurance to include Building & contents insurance for your apartment or house:

With legal expenses insurance, you can count on the protection of your legal interests: you will receive advice from a lawyer, guidance on the appropriate course of action, document templates, and reimbursement of costs. PZU covers, among other things, attorney or legal counsel fees, costs of legal opinions, court costs in civil and criminal cases, administrative court proceedings costs, and out-of-court mediation expenses.

What do you protect?

Your peace of mind and budget in legal matters: legal advice, guidance on the appropriate course of action, document templates, as well as coverage for attorney or legal counsel fees, legal opinions, court costs (civil and criminal cases), administrative court proceedings, and out-of-court mediation expenses.

Example situations:

• A tenant damages the apartment or falls behind on rent.
• A neighbor's dog jumps on you during a walk.
• A renovation company misses deadlines.
• Neighbors accuse you of disturbing the peace.
• An online seller delays shipping your order and does not answer calls.
• Someone steals your identity documents and fraudulently takes out a loan in your name.

Landlord liability insurance is a personal liability insurance policy that protects you and your family members from accidental damage caused to third parties. If you or your loved ones cause damage to someone else, the insurer will pay them compensation. Coverage also includes damage caused by a child under the age of 13 under your care – in such cases, PZU can pay out compensation up to 10,000 PLN.

What do you protect?

If you or the family members living with you accidentally cause damage to another person, the insurer will compensate them (for example, if you flood the downstairs neighbor). This also means that if tenant-owned property is damaged through your fault, the insurer will pay the tenant compensation from your liability policy.

Example covered claims:

• A flowerpot falls from your balcony onto a parked car.
• An improperly installed chandelier falls and damages the tenant's sound equipment.
• You hit a pedestrian while riding a bicycle or e-scooter.
• Your dog runs into the street and causes an accident.

Home assistance is an insurance policy under which PZU organizes and pays for professional help when something breaks down in the apartment – for example, if a pipe bursts, a door lock breaks, or the premises are damaged. As part of the rent payment insurance, the Plus variant is available, which offers the broadest scope of assistance coverage. The sum insured depends on the specific service.

Under the Plus variant, PZU will help you with:

• Replacing locks if you lose your apartment keys.
• Providing specialist support along with a diagnosis of the cause when the electrical system fails.
• Organizing a stay for you and your family in a hotel, including transport to and from the hotel, if the apartment becomes uninhabitable after a fire.
• Covering the costs of parts and materials necessary for repairs.
• Organizing and paying for a stay in alternative accommodation, as well as transport to and from it.
• Organizing and paying for the protection of property surviving a fire, burglary, or hurricane.
• Providing advice from a security specialist if someone breaks into the apartment.
• Paying for remote computer diagnosis and repair (e.g., in case of a virus infection).
• Organizing and paying for the repair of home electronics and household appliances (RTV/AGD) in the apartment or at a service center (for equipment up to 5 years old from the date of manufacture).
• Conducting disinfestation, deratization, or removing nests if pests appear in the apartment (e.g., mice, cockroaches) or wasps nest there.

Breakable items insurance (sum insured 2,000 PLN) provides compensation if an item is accidentally broken, e.g., an oven glass door. Covered items include those made of glass, ceramics, natural stone, or composite stone, such as window and door glass, glass furniture components, shower enclosures, wall-mounted mirrors, cooktops, oven/fireplace/microwave glass, as well as washbasins, bathtubs, and shower trays. Glass or plastic balcony and terrace enclosures are also covered.

With movable property insurance, you protect items belonging to you and your loved ones (e.g., consumer electronics, home appliances, furniture, and jewelry) under an "All Risk" coverage policy – meaning protection against all random events that are not explicitly excluded in the General Terms and Conditions (T&Cs/OWU), such as fire, flooding, hurricanes, theft, and many others. The sum insured is the value of the items determined by you.

• Someone snatches your phone on the street or steals your bag with your wallet (robbery away from home).
• Your audio equipment or computer is damaged during a storm or power surge.

Under the same policy, you can also insure the property itself (apartment or house) under an "All Risk" coverage policy – protecting against fire, flood, water damage, vandalism, and many other random events. The sum insured is the value of the house or apartment specified by you. Simply provide this value during purchase; this add-on is optional.
