Insurances for GEMA members

Music creators have specific requirements and need insurance protection that has been specially adapted to them and their lives. In the case of a claim, it should cover you reliably and comprehensively, but at the same time be affordable.

That is why we have been offering our members exclusive and sector-specific insurance packages for a few years now. They have already been received well by many GEMA members.

Together with the insurance brokers, Wulff von Sivers and the most competent insurance providers, depending on the subject matter, for example R+V, Baloise, ERGO, AIG, ARAG and Allianz, insurance packages were put together specially for the music business which are not on offer on the marketplace in such formats. Depending on yor requirements, they can be adapted individually. In addition, we agreed on a framework agreement for the conclusion of pension scheme policies with Allianz.  Together with the independent brokers AURES Finanz AG & Cie. KG, you can thus build attractive additional pension schemes in a fully digitised manner.

20 to 50 percent savings on average

The insurance packages created for our members are comprehensive, highly effective, flexible and favourably priced. There is currently no better offer in the market that is specially tailored to the needs of music creators.

On average, the GEMA packages are, for the same service contents, about 20 to 50 percent cheaper than insurance policies concluded with individual insurance companies. Of course they do, however, depend on the tailoring in each individual case.

The contracts usually run for one year (if no notice is given, they are extended by another year) and can be cancelled actively by the GEMA member subject to a three-month notice period.

Do not just protect your music but also your existence

GEMA copyright: Save more than 100 Euros in 2023

The pecuniary loss liability insurance (GEMA copyright) covers you in the case of infringements of your intellectual property and industrial property rights (e.g. authors’, trademark, domain, name and moral rights), and infringements in the case of publication on social media/websites. It offers global protection, adjusts to your revenues and takes over the costs and expenses arising in connection with solicitors, experts or surveyors, courts, travel, damage limitation and so forth.

GEMA third-party liability insurance from four Euros per month

A third-party liability insurance is only sensible and useful if all professional activities exercised are included. As a consequence, the GEMA third-party liability insurance therefore includes up to 13 of the most common activities of music creators such as freelance music teacher, performing musician (worldwide), music producer and many more. On top of that, it comprises a private third-party liability insurance (family policy including children) which is exempt of making contributions.
