FAQ

Marketplace startups need Technology Errors & Omissions (E&O) for platform performance claims, Cyber Liability for user data protection, General Liability for bodily injury and property damage connected to platform transactions, and Directors & Officers (D&O) insurance. With Corgi, platforms facilitating payments should also consider Crime/Fidelity coverage for transaction fraud.
Trust and safety coverage protects marketplace platforms from claims arising from user interactions facilitated by the platform. This includes allegations of negligent screening or vetting of providers, failure to moderate harmful content, inadequate identity verification, and liability when a transaction leads to injury, property damage, or financial loss for a user. Corgi's marketplace package is built for that multi-party exposure.
Yes. As marketplaces scale, requiring sellers or service providers to carry their own insurance reduces platform exposure. Many enterprise sellers and brands also require the platform to name them as Additional Insured on your Corgi policy. Structuring these requirements early helps manage risk as your supply side grows.
Marketplace platforms need cyber coverage for user data breaches across both sides of the marketplace, payment card data protection under PCI-DSS, account takeover and credential theft incidents, and business interruption from platform outages. Platforms handling sensitive user information like identity documents or financial data need Corgi's higher coverage limits.
General liability for marketplaces covers bodily injury and property damage claims connected to platform-facilitated transactions. Unlike traditional businesses, marketplace GL must account for vicarious liability when a user is harmed by a service provider the platform matched them with. Corgi structures coverage to address the unique multi-party nature of marketplace claims.
Trust-and-safety incidents, including harassment between users, content moderation failures, fraudulent listings, and disputes over completed transactions, typically draw on General Liability for bodily injury and property damage and Media Liability for defamation, IP, and content-moderation claims. Standard policies often exclude these without a marketplace-specific endorsement. Corgi writes platform coverage with affirmative trust-and-safety wording so the gap doesn't surprise you mid-incident.
Plaintiffs routinely name the platform alongside the individual user when something goes wrong, even when the platform didn't directly cause the harm. Defending those claims falls under General Liability and, when the allegation involves content or speech, Media Liability. Section 230 helps in the U.S. but is not a substitute for insurance. You still pay defense costs, and Corgi structures coverage to absorb them.
Effectively yes: the platform's own policy needs to respond to claims from either side. Most marketplaces also require sellers or service providers to carry their own insurance once they reach a certain volume, and to name the platform as Additional Insured. That structure pushes supply-side risk back to providers while the platform retains the catastrophic and brand-level exposure. Corgi helps design that hybrid risk allocation as part of placement.
Digital-goods platforms lean heavier on cyber, media liability, and Tech E&O because the product is information and access. Physical-goods marketplaces add Product Liability inside General Liability and frequently need Hired & Non-Owned Auto when delivery, drivers, or warehousing are involved. The COI you'll be asked for from enterprise sellers also looks different. Corgi tunes the structure to match.
