Sports Authority provides shoppers protection

Sports Authority wants to make purchase protection "SIMPLR" for its customers with a new partnership with Asurion Retail Solutions' SIMPLR brand.

The retailer is partnering with Asurion-backed protection plan provider Simplr to let customers protect new purchases.The product enables customers who purchase a protection plan to repair or replace a covered piece of sports equipment – such as treadmills, bikes, or golf clubs.

There are no deductibles, repair costs, or hidden fees. Shoppers file a claim online. The three step claims process is straightforward and can be completed online any time, day or night:



1. Register the product online,

2. File a claim on the SIMPLR website, and

3. Pack/ship the product, or schedule an in-home repair at a convenient time.
