What happens if I don’t supply TripShock with my updated insurance when requested?
TripShock reserves the right to disable your activity listings if you do not keep your insurance up to date. Please provide a copy of your insurance certificate each year upon its renewal.
What do I do if a mutual traveler gets hurt on my tour?
If a mutual customer gets hurt on your tour, please alert our customer support team at 850-424-5125 as soon as possible, but not more than 48 hours after the incident occurs so we are aware of the situation. It is our policy to not refund or comment on the issue unless instructed by your organization. Please review TripShock’s Supplier Terms and Conditions for our compete liability policy.
How much insurance do I have to have?
Tripshock suppliers must have a valid commercial liability insurance policy in place at all times during their partnership with TripShock. Although TripShock does not have specific policy requirements, to the extent that specific policy limits are required by law for a particular activity, providers must be in compliance.
Please keep your insurance information up to date and send new insurance certificates to [email protected] each year.
How do I recover damage repair fees?
You are solely responsible for collecting deposits, securing damage liability insurance and/or recovering damage repair fees. TripShock does not accept any liability for damages caused by its customers.
Can TripShock collect liability information for me, such as security deposits or waivers?
If you offer a digital waiver system that has a direct link for travelers, then we are happy to include this with the confirmation email. We are, however, unable to produce or send paper waivers to customers.
Note: We are not able to collect security deposits. This should be done upon arrival.
Will I be required to offer discounts on TripShock?
No. However, TripShock does require your ticket prices to be in parity with your lowest advertised price, including your direct prices and any prices offered by third parties. If you would like to discuss pricing strategy, please contact the partner support department at [email protected] and they will connect you with an account strategist.
