Protection for online retailers and digital businesses.

Typical cost: $1,500 – $7,500 per year

E-Commerce Cyber Insurance

E-commerce businesses face cyber risks from handling payment card data, customer personal information, and operating always-on online storefronts. Cyber coverage protects against breaches, fraud, and attacks that can devastate online retailers.

PCI Compliance

Online retailers processing credit cards must comply with PCI DSS standards. Data breaches can result in substantial PCI fines, card brand penalties, and loss of payment processing privileges. Cyber insurance helps manage these exposures.

Tips

  • PCI compliance doesn't prevent breaches—insurance is still needed
  • Website downtime coverage is essential for pure e-commerce businesses
  • Consider coverage for supply chain/vendor cyber incidents
