What is GAP Insurance?

GAP insurance is generally used as a supplement to accident insurance.
GAP = Guaranteed Asset Protection. GAP insurance is offered in connection with the purchase or financing of a car, and the client is guaranteed for insurance against the original purchase price of the vehicle in case of total damage or theft, or the client is protected against the debt to the leasing company or the bank.

Which GAP insurance is the most suitable for me?

The cheapest option is not always the best option nor the most expensive option the finest. You need to carefully look at the risk you are exposed to and then choose your insurance coverage accordingly.

Yes, the accident insurance company can not only be changed during the DEFEND Gap policy’s term, but you can also adjust the insurance amount to the current general vehicle price. Note!
