Your ZEN.COM Protection Keeps Working After the Payment Is Done

ZEN.COM is the multicurrency account that makes shopping and travel better. Here’s what keeps covering you after you pay with your ZEN Card.

· Updated ·

When “Payment successful” appears on the screen, it feels like that’s the end of it. With a ZEN Card, it’s closer to the start. If an order doesn’t arrive, a device breaks down after its warranty has ended or a trip falls through, we’ve got your back.

What keeps working after you pay, at a glance

Each benefit is a Zenefit in the ZEN.COM app. Flight+ is the tab where you add your flight, and ZEN Care is ZEN.COM’s own help when a card payment goes wrong. Transaction history is the list of your payments.

The Good plan is free, Better costs 2.99 EUR a month, Best 6.99 EUR and ZEN 16.99 EUR. Good includes one free Shopping Protection (ZEN Care) claim a year. Everything else in the table starts from Better, and the travel protections and Event Ticket Cover start from Best.

The table shows the most you can claim for each benefit, as listed in the Help Center. “Included” means the benefit is part of the plan, and “Unlimited” means there’s no cap on the number of claims. You can check the current amounts in the ZEN.COM app.

“No” means it isn’t included in that plan. Flight Claim Assistant is per passenger, and its limit depends on flight distance. Travel Delay Cover has one shared limit for a delayed trip and delayed baggage. Each benefit is explained in the sections below.

Shopping protection after you pay

Your ZEN Card payments are protected from the moment you pay and long after the purchase. If an order goes wrong, Shopping Protection (ZEN Care) steps in, whether an item arrives faulty, not as described or doesn’t arrive at all. The Good plan includes one free claim a year, and from the Better plan it’s Unlimited Shopping Protection.

Does your laptop or washing machine give up a month after the manufacturer’s warranty ends? Extended Warranty for electronics and household appliances adds another 12 months of cover. Register the item in the app first: select it in your Transaction history.

A better price, even after you’ve paid. If you find the same item for less, Best Price Cover lets you claim back the difference. It works on eligible in-store purchases, up to the limit of your plan.

Taking out cash should feel safe too. If you’re mugged and hurt shortly after using an ATM, ATM Anti-Theft helps you get the cash back, up to the limit in the terms.

Can’t make it to the event? Event Ticket Cover comes with the Best plan. If a covered reason keeps you away from a concert, match or show, it helps you claim back the cost of tickets you can’t use.

Travel protection after you pay

The same idea carries over to a trip. Flight Claim Assistant comes with the Better plan. If a flight is delayed or cancelled, our partner automatically spots when it qualifies for compensation and handles the claim for you, paying you directly. Flying? Add your flight in the Flight+ tab of the ZEN.COM app and we’ll start protecting your trip.

From the Best plan, five travel protections cover eligible trips you pay for with your ZEN Card, so there’s no separate travel insurance to buy before each trip. They help when a trip is cancelled or delayed, when you’re held responsible for an accident and when the airline or travel agency you paid stops operating.

If plans fall through, Travel Cancellation Cover lets you claim back what you can’t get refunded elsewhere when an eligible reason means you have to cancel before you leave. When travel doesn’t go to plan, Travel Delay Cover helps with the cost of waiting: meals, refreshment and a hotel. If your baggage arrives late, we help with the essentials you buy while you wait.

Travel knowing an accident is covered. If you accidentally hurt someone or damage their property while travelling, Personal Liability Cover for Travel helps with the costs you’re held responsible for, including legal and defence costs. An accident doesn’t have to become an expensive problem. And if the airline or travel agency you paid stops operating, Airline Failure Assistant and Travel Agency Failure Assistant can help too.

The ZEN plan adds higher limits and a few extras. Travel Cancellation Cover also helps if you have to cut a trip short. Rental Car Excess helps you get eligible excess costs reimbursed, so you can enjoy the drive, not the what-ifs. With Flight Live Assistant, there’s no more checking the airport departure board. And a long delay shouldn’t mean sitting on the floor by the gate: when a flight is more than 3 hours late, you automatically get a Flight Delay Lounge Pass.

What you do and what we handle

You pay with your ZEN Card and, depending on the benefit, take one small step. If something goes wrong, the steps are short: keep the details, start your claim online and get your money back. From there, we and our partners look after your claim, so your protection stays with you after checkout. Full conditions in the terms.

Frequently asked questions

Does the ZEN Card have purchase protection?

Yes. Shopping Protection (ZEN Care) helps when an order goes wrong: the Good plan includes one free claim a year, and from the Better plan you get unlimited claims. The Better plan also adds Best Price Cover, Extended Warranty and ATM Anti-Theft, with higher limits on the Best and ZEN plans.

What is Extended Warranty on a card?

Extended Warranty adds another 12 months of cover once the manufacturer’s warranty ends on electronics or a household appliance you buy with your ZEN Card. Register the item in the app first: select it in your Transaction history. The limit is up to 1,500 EUR on the Better plan and up to 5,000 EUR on the Best and ZEN plans.

What is Best Price Cover?

Best Price Cover lets you claim back the difference if you buy an eligible product in a physical store with your ZEN Card and later find it for less. The limit is up to 100 EUR on the Better plan, 250 EUR on the Best plan and 500 EUR on the ZEN plan.

Does ZEN cover travel cancellation?

Yes, from the Best plan. Travel Cancellation Cover lets you claim back what you can’t get refunded elsewhere if an eligible reason means you have to cancel a trip you paid for with your ZEN Card before you leave: up to 2,500 EUR on the Best plan and up to 5,000 EUR on the ZEN plan. Availability depends on your country, as some protections are introduced country by country. Check yours in the Help Center.

What does the Best plan cover?

On the Best plan, five travel protections cover eligible trips you pay for with your ZEN Card: Travel Cancellation Cover, Travel Delay Cover, Personal Liability Cover for Travel, Airline Failure Assistant and Travel Agency Failure Assistant. It also includes Event Ticket Cover and everything from the Better plan at higher limits, including Flight Claim Assistant. The ZEN plan adds higher limits, cover for cutting a trip short under Travel Cancellation Cover, Rental Car Excess, Flight Live Assistant and a lounge pass for delayed flights.

Do I need to buy or activate anything?

You don’t buy any of this separately. Two benefits ask for one small step: register an item in the app for Extended Warranty, and add your flight in the Flight+ tab to start protecting your trip.

How do I make a claim?

Open the ZEN.COM app, choose Zenefits and follow the steps for the benefit you need. Keep your documents and the details of what happened to hand.

Is Personal Liability Cover for Travel only valid during a trip?

Yes. It helps when you accidentally injure someone or damage their property while travelling and you’re held responsible. It’s third-party cover, so it doesn’t cover your own injuries or belongings.

Does ZEN cover the same benefits in every country?

No. At launch, the full set of benefits described in this article works in the first group of countries where we’re introducing the new ZEN.COM plans. In the other countries, the new plan names, prices and fees apply, and we’re introducing some of the extra protections separately, country by country. You can check what’s available in your country in the Help Center.

Do I need separate travel insurance with the Best plan?

No, not for what these protections cover. They apply on every eligible trip you pay for with your ZEN Card, so you don’t need to buy them before a trip. Full conditions in the terms.

Where can I check the limits and terms?

You’ll find the most you can claim for each plan in the table in this article, and the current amounts in the ZEN.COM app. Full conditions in the terms.
