What is the optional EnMotive Registration Protection Plan offered during registration?
Protect yourself for certain otherwise non-refundable registration expenses if you are unable to participate due to unforeseen qualified reasons. This offer is valid only at the time of your registration for the event and cannot be added retroactively. The Protection Plan is also non-refundable, if selected, once registration has been completed. The claim will be processed by EnMotive and not the race director or event that you have registered for. EnMotive will either approve or deny your claim based on the terms and conditions of the protection plan. To review the terms and conditions of the Registration Protection Plan or for more information about how to submit a claim, click here.
