7 Insurance coverage(s) included with CIBC credit cards are underwritten by Royal & Sun Alliance Insurance Company of Canada (RSA). Different cards will have different coverage(s). To learn about included insurance(s), and to get important information regarding coverage eligibility requirements, benefits, limitations and exclusions, visit our credit card agreements and insurance certificates. This information is also available in the insurance certificate(s) in your card package. Some insurance(s) require purchases, common carrier fares and other trip costs to be charged to the card to activate coverage; other conditions may also apply. Certain RSA coverages are “excess insurance” (all other sources of insurance and recovery must be exhausted before benefits are available).
