"It's a painless... dare I say 'fun' process"
Let's be real, the act of insuring your valuables is typically viewed as a necessary evil. The process is usually never fun, and it takes a lot of time with a lot of paperwork depending on how many things you're insuring. However, the WAX model seems to have transcended this age-old status quo. With an easy-to-use app, you upload a couple of photos for each of your items, and then get a quote within a day or so with minimal paperwork from an industry-leading underwriter. It's a painless... dare I say "fun" process. In addition to this, they walk the walk of what it truly means to be customer centric, which again, is not typically affiliated with insurance experiences. Before I even applied for a quote, Jeremy met with me live to walk through the myriad of questions & concerns that I had, and hand-held me throughout the entire process. The team as a whole is extremely accessible, including their CEO Rich. Hopefully I'II never have to file a claim, but in the end, I'm glad I chose WAX.

"I could feel that they genuinely care about my collection"
It's been a really fast and worry-free process to get covered with WAX. Their VIP Concierge team, especially Jeremy, is super responsive and answered all of my questions. The app's UI is super clean. So far I can only highly recommend WAX. They seemed the most modern amongst their competitors and I could feel that they genuinely care about my collection.
Andre G
"Come for the insurance, stay for their customer service"
WAX Insurance is neat. I knew about WAX since around April or May 2020. However, it was Jeremy (@timepeacelove on Instagram) who convinced me WAX is the way to go. Insuring a watch is as easy as clicking 3 pictures and a very short wait for the coverage to start. The app is well designed keeping in mind the user experience. Andrew, Director of Underwriting at WAX is quick and precise in his responses. I would highly recommend WAX not just for insuring watches but insuring other collectible items as well. Come for the insurance, stay for their customer service.
Raja R
"Professional, responsive, friendly, and courteous"
Professional, responsive, friendly, and courteous are just a few words that come to mind when I think of my experience with WAX Insurance and particularly Andrew Schmer. I was reluctant to work with a different insurer for my Rolexes as I try to run all of my policies through the same company to maximize my discounts. My broker from another large insurer encouraged me to work with Wax for my watches as he said they had the best coverage and that he even used them for his wife’s wedding ring - that meant a lot to me. WAX Insurance - you have a customer for life and I am grateful to be working with you! Thank you!
Doug Sovern
"Protection against market value volatility"
It was super easy and quick to get coverage in the Wax App compared to traditional insurance companies. No appraisals. Protection against market value volatility. Coverage for a wide variety of luxury goods and collectibles. Great customer service. Created by collectors themselves so you know you are in good hands.

"FINALLY an application of technology that makes insurance as close to fun as it probably will get!"
FINALLY an application of technology that makes insurance as close to fun as it probably will get! The setup process for specialized collectables was straight forward and easy to do, with multiple options for how to upload pictures and what sort of info was needed. The great thing here is that you do NOT need to call an agent every time a piece is added to your collection (you can, but for small pieces, that are more about bookkeeping, this is a GREAT feature). Being able to combine fine art and trading cards in one policy is also great, because keeping track of which underwriter does what can be a pain as collections grow.

"An insurance experience I actually enjoyed and learned from"
Huge fan of WAX Insurance! An insurance experience I actually enjoyed and learned from. It was so simple to upload my collectibles into the WAX app and quickly obtain insurance while their team was there to support me as needed. Highly recommend!
Steven Schwartz
"They covered my watch collection and artwork in one policy within hours"
Extremely user-friendly and straightforward experience in an otherwise archaic and fragmented industry. They covered my watch collection and artwork in one policy within hours.

"Super simple and easy process to add items to WAX quote and policy"
Super simple and easy process to add items to WAX quote and policy. The app is great and it's awesome to see your scheduled items easily and at your fingertips. Jeremy was wonderful in providing assistance and communication to us throughout the process and outstanding in his follow up to confirm that everything was set and in place. Highly recommend!

"An innovator in the field of bespoke solutions for collectors"
WAX continues to be an innovator in the field of bespoke solutions for collectors. I've long been a fan of their timepiece coverage offerings and am pleased to expand my coverage into other categories of collectibles. Bravo and thank you to the entire team for coming up with thoughtful solutions!

"I now have the best insurance coverage in the marketplace"
Before Wax, I had a standard jewelry rider on my homeowner's insurance policy. Frankly, it was insufficient coverage. For roughly the same cost as my old policy, I now have the best insurance coverage in the marketplace underwritten by Chubb. Not only do I have the best watch insurance now, but Wax's customer service and support is second to none. Jeremy was instrumental in educating me and making sure that my watch collection is properly insured. It was a snap to use the Wax App and get my watches insured. Jeremy has gone above and beyond to bring me into the Wax family. Consider me a customer for life.
Jonathan C
"It's an impressive company run by professionals"
After downloading the app, uploading 2 photos, and answering a few watch-specific questions, coverage for my Rolex was approved. The process from start to finish took only a few days. It's an impressive company run by professionals.
James P
"So pleased with my own experience... I offer Wax Insurance as part of my portfolio"
On my first attempt to use the Wax App, I found it to be intuitive and user-friendly. If you have any questions, the Wax service team is easily accessible. Since I am an insurance broker, and so pleased with my own experience using Wax, I am now a producer for Wax. I offer Wax Insurance as part of my portfolio to my clientele.
Stewart Clarfield
"A single trusted platform to insure my watches and my wife's jewelry"
The WAX team, especially Jeremy, is incredibly responsive, makes you feel like a member of a family of collectors as opposed to just another policy holder. The app is easy, intuitive to use when adding items or changing your coverage, and is constantly improving. It's very convenient having a single trusted platform to insure my watches and my wife's jewelry. WAX on!
Alexander
"The most helpful people in the insurance industry"
Samantha Bekman and Andrew Schmer have been the most helpful people in the insurance industry I have dealt with. They are personable, kind, and logical. WAX is very lucky to have them both. Thank you.

"Very easy to deal with and extremely affordable"
Wax Insurance was very easy to deal with and extremely affordable. Each interaction I had with a customer service representative was helpful and informative. I would highly recommend Wax for your insurance needs based off their quick and convenient service!
Carter Matlock
"Thankfully I found Wax and a superior solution"
After trying multiple different avenues for insuring my collection over the last 10+ years, thankfully I found Wax and a superior solution. The app was easy to navigate and build out my collection and their team made the entire process smooth as can be. Looking forward to doing more business and seeing what else Wax can do in the future for me.

Why should I track and/or insure my valuables and collectibles?
Keeping track of your valuables is just good housekeeping. With headlines in the news such as watch related crime increasing 106% from 2022-2023, it’s no wonder that tracking and protecting valuables and collectibles is on everyone’s minds.
What many people don’t realize is that their homeowners or renters’ insurance actually doesn’t fully protect their valuables and collectibles and is even less likely to protect you if you travel with your beloved items. WAX was created to make getting coverage for the items you’re most passionate about as easy as possible. We’ve worked with top-tier carriers like Chubb to provide the most comprehensive worldwide protection specifically for valuables and collectibles.
How does WAX help me track my valuables?
Life gets complicated, but tracking the items that are most valuable to you or that you’re most passionate about shouldn’t be difficult. The WAX app supports 30+ categories and lets you track your items and their details, photos, and documents with just a few taps. Keep it all in your pocket available anytime and edit it whenever you need.
