Payment Protection Insurance

Life can be wonderful. But it can also get complicated when unexpected things happen.

Payment Protection1 is a simple and budget-friendly way to protect your family and help ensure your credit cards, auto loans, or personal loan payments are maintained if you become unemployed, disabled, or pass away. This protection could cancel your loan balance or payments up to the contract maximums.

Life Plus is an optional add-on to Payment Protection, which adds additional protection for life events such as accidental dismemberment, terminal illness, hospitalization, family medical leave, and the loss of life of a non-protected dependent. Protect your loan balance or loan payments today so your family can worry a little bit less about tomorrow. Purchasing protection is voluntary and won’t affect your loan approval.

    Patelco helps you get ready for the unexpected with our Patelco Protection Plans. We know that life can come at you in the most unexpected ways; that’s why we offer protection plans to help you be financially prepared for anything that comes along. Are you ready for the expected?
    What if there’s an injury and you’re unable to work? Will your current coverage be enough? Or in the event of your unexpected death, will your family be able to keep up with everyday expenses and debt?
    It is possible to plan for the unexpected with our loan and payment protection plan that cancels your loan payments or balance, up to the contract maximums, if you suffer a covered unemployment, disability or pass away.
    But what if other unexpected expenses come along? Can you cover the gap?
    For example, getting a new vehicle is exciting, but it starts losing value the second you drive it off the lot. And if it gets wrecked or stolen you could owe more than your insurance will pay, and that gap could be thousands of dollars.
    For a one-time cost of $595, Guaranteed Asset Protection, or GAP Plus, can help reduce that gap and put you back where you belong – behind the wheel. It can be financed as part of your loan. This averages out to just over $8 per month over the course of a 5 year loan, giving you protection and can help provide you peace of mind.
    But what happens when those big repair bills come along?
    Mechanical Breakdown Insurance (MBI) can help make big repair bills a lot smaller. Just choose a plan and deductible to help reduce your out-of-pocket expenses on covered repairs and get additional benefits like roadside assistance, rental and travel expense reimbursement, and more. So when life throws you an unexpected curve – you can be covered.
