Cell phone insurance via credit card

protection · 3 min read

The benefit

Pay your cell phone bill with a card that offers phone protection. Most cards pay up to $600-800 per claim, 2 claims per year, $25-50 deductible.

Cards that offer it

  • Chase Ink Business Preferred: $1,000/claim, 3/year, $100 deductible.
  • Wells Fargo Reflect: $600/claim.
  • US Bank Altitude Connect: $600/claim.
  • Amex Platinum Business: Via Platinum benefits.

The catch

You must pay your entire cell phone bill on the card — not just add the card as payment. Missed one month and the phone drops during month 2? You're not covered.
