What types of business insurance do podcasters need?
These insurance policies cover the most common risks faced by podcasters.
General liability insurance
This policy covers basic risks, such as a guest who slips and suffers an injury during an interview. Bundle it with commercial property insurance in a business owner's policy for savings.
BEST FOR
- Slip-and-fall injuries
- Property damage lawsuits
- Commercial lease requirements
Media liability insurance
This policy covers legal costs when a podcaster makes a mistake that causes financial harm, or is accused of defamation or copyright infringement. It's also referred to as professional liability insurance.
BEST FOR
- Copyright infringement
- Slander and other defamation claims
- Breach of contract
Business owner's policy
A business owner's policy, or BOP, is a cost-effective way for podcasters to purchase general liability coverage and commercial property insurance together.
BEST FOR
- Damaged client property
- Slip-and-fall injuries at your studio
- Stolen or damaged business property
Workers’ compensation insurance
Most states require workers' comp for podcasting businesses with employees. It also protects sole proprietors from work injury costs that health insurance might deny.
BEST FOR
- Employee medical expenses
- Disability benefits
- Legal fees from employee injuries
Cyber insurance
A cyber liability policy coves costs related to data breaches and cyberattacks. It's strongly recommended for podcasters who store email addresses and other personal information.
BEST FOR
- Customer notification expenses
- Fraud monitoring services
- Cyberextortion payments
Commercial auto insurance
Commercial auto insurance helps cover costs if a vehicle owned by a podcasting business is involved in an accident. It's usually required for business-owned vehicles.
