How is Arch RoamRight different than my current provider?
While it may seem that all travel insurance providers offer similar coverages, there are some key differences that set Arch RoamRight apart from other providers. Our
guide, 5 Things to Look for in a Travel Insurance Provider, can help you assess your current provider and the benefits of
switching to Arch RoamRight.
Are your plans tailored to a specific kind of trip?
While Arch RoamRight’s core products meet the needs of most travelers, we know that many travelers and organizations have specific needs. Find out about the types of businesses we currently partner with.

How do I partner with Arch RoamRight?
It’s easy to become a Arch RoamRight travel advisor or tour operator partner. Simply contact us. One of our regional sales directors will reach
out to you to walk you through it.
What are your commission rates?
We look at each account on a case-by-case basis. While commission rates vary by plan, an Arch RoamRight regional sales director will review your current commission structure and requirements.
As an Arch RoamRight partner, you’ll receive the same commission regardless of whether a traveler buys online or over the phone. Additionally, there are no administrative fees so you collect a commission on the entire sale.
As a home-based travel agent, can I sell Arch RoamRight?
Yes! We do not require agency identifiers (True, CLIA, or IATAN) to offer travel insurance. So if you want to offer Arch RoamRight, contact us.
We’ll be happy to work with you!
When should I offer insurance to my travelers?
The best time to offer travel insurance is during the initial booking process. This is when your travelers are most likely to choose the extra protection
provided by Arch RoamRight. There are many factors that can sway a person into purchasing insurance. A few of the most common considerations include:
- Are they willing to risk losing non-refundable trip deposits?
- Will their health insurance cover them in their destination?
- Will their health insurance pay to a foreign provider directly, or will they need to submit for reimbursement when they return home?
- Is there likelihood that weather can impact their travel plans (winter storms or hurricane season?)
Where can I find a list of Arch RoamRight plans?
You can find a list of our consumer plans on RoamRight.com. A regional sales director
can speak with you regarding options for group plans and plans available exclusively through Arch RoamRight partners.
Do you have an option to waive pre-existing medical conditions?
Yes. A waiver for the Pre-Existing Medical Conditions exclusion is available if all of the following conditions are met:
- Plan purchased within the plan’s time sensitive period;
- 100% of all travel arrangements subject to cancellation penalties are insured;
- Insured is not disabled from travel at the time of purchase; and
- The booking for the trip is the first and only booking for this travel period and destination.
What is considered a pre-existing condition?
For most Arch RoamRight plans, we define pre-existing conditions as: Any Injury, Sickness or condition of You, a Traveling Companion or Your and/or Your Traveling Companion’s
Family Member for which medical advice, diagnosis, care or treatment was recommended or received within the 120 day period ending on the Effective Date. Sicknesses or conditions are not considered pre-existing if the Sickness or condition
for which prescribed drugs or medicine is taken remains controlled without any change in the required prescription.
Is medical coverage primary or excess?
Arch RoamRight's pro and Pro Plus plans include primary medical coverage.
Is assistance available 24/7?
Yes, your travelers will have access to the 24/7 emergency assistance provider designated in the plan documents. They can call direct or toll-free, as well as email or request help using the Arch RoamRight mobile app. Regardless
of how they contact the assistance provider, your travelers can receive help anywhere in the world.
Do you cover natural disasters?
Arch RoamRight provides 24/7 assistance services, including evacuation help, for travelers caught in a natural disaster.
Do you cover acts of terrorism?
Arch RoamRight can provide 24/7 assistance services for travelers who need to evacuate a country due to an act of terrorism. Furthermore, Arch RoamRight’s trip cancellation benefit is triggered
when a terrorist attack occurs within a specified number of days before departure and within the territorial limits of a city listed on the traveler’s itinerary.
What is supplier default and how does Arch RoamRight protect travelers from it?
When a travel insurance plan is purchased within the plan's time sensitive period, travelers are protected against bankruptcy or default
that causes a complete cessation of travel services, provided it occurs more than 14 days following the effective date of coverage.
