What are my laptop insurance options?
Contents insurance
Contents insurance is designed to cover all the belongings inside your home, including your laptop. If you want to protect specific items you frequently take outside, like your laptop, you can add on portable contents insurance to your policy.
Single item insurance
This is a cost-effective way to insure the items you value most, like your phone or laptop. It's a good option if you only want cover for specific items and you can pay extra to protect your laptop outside your home.
