Section 1: Insurance Terms and Conditions

Comprehensive Insurance Coverage

Kampi.co.za, through our brokers, offers comprehensive insurance coverage for all rentals where the owner has opted in to our insurance when listing with Kampi.co.za, and it covers damages to the camper.

Deposit

To secure the rental, Kampi.co.za requests a deposit of R5000 for local trips and R10000 for cross-border trips. In the event of an insurance claim, the R5000 deposit will be used to cover upto R5000 of the excess. The excess of R5000 or 10% of the value of the claim will apply to each incident. If multiple incidents occur, the excess will be multiplied by the number of incidents and will not be covered by Kampi.co.za. The excess is the responsibility of the renter.

Excess

  • Excess Amount: In the event of an insurance claim, an excess amount shall apply. The excess represents the portion of the claim that the renter or owner is responsible for. For each incident, the excess will be either R5000 or 10% of the total claim amount, whichever is greater.

  • Calculation of Excess: The excess for a claim will be determined by comparing the actual claim amount to the two aforementioned options: R5000 or 10% of the total claim amount. The higher value between the two shall be considered the applicable excess for the claim.

  • Application of Excess: The excess amount shall be deducted from any payment made by Kampi.co.za for the claim. It is the responsibility of the renter or owner to cover the excess before receiving any compensation for the claim.

  • Multiple Incidents: In the case of multiple incidents occurring during the rental period, each incident will have its own separate excess amount calculated based on the total claim amount associated with that particular incident. The excess will be applied individually to each incident, thereby ensuring the proportional allocation of responsibility.

  • Excess Liability: Kampi.co.za cannot be held liable for the excess amount of 10% or the minimum specified amounts for local and cross-border trips. Therefore, renters are obligated to pay this excess as specified in the terms and conditions of the rental agreement. In the event that a renter fails to make payment for the applicable excess within the stipulated time frame, Kampi.co.za reserves the right to take legal action against the renter. Legal action may include, but is not limited to, pursuing the outstanding excess through legal channels and recovering any associated costs incurred by Kampi.co.za. We strongly advise all renters to fulfill their financial obligations promptly to avoid any legal consequences.

Market Value of the Camper

The total amount that Kampi.co.za is liable to pay in the event of a claim is equal to the reasonable market value of the camper as specified by the owner. However, overinflating the value of the camper could result in a loss of cover.

Responsibility of Owner and Renter

To ensure cover, the owner is responsible for ensuring that the driver and renter are fully licensed with the correct license to tow the camper. The towing vehicle's license must also be up to date for the duration of the trip. The renter will accept responsibility for all damages once they take possession of the camper.

Claims Process

If a claim needs to be submitted, an email must be sent to insurance@Kampi.co.za with a copy of the Hand Over document, pictures of the damages, and a minimum of two separate repair quotes. Kampi.co.za will then issue a claim form that must be completed by the owner and signed by the renter.

Limitations and Exclusions

Insurance coverage does not extend to damages caused by the renter's negligence, intentional acts, or breach of the rental agreement. Additionally, Kampi.co.za is not liable for any loss of personal property that occurs during the rental period. Any exclusions or limitations will be outlined in the rental agreement.

Liability

Kampi.co.za is not liable for any loss or damages arising from the use of a rental camper, including but not limited to any accidents, injuries, or loss of property, whether caused by the renter, the owner, or any third party. The renter agrees to indemnify Kampi.co.za against any such claims, losses, or damages.

Local Laws

These insurance terms and conditions are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa and any disputes arising out of or in connection with these terms and conditions shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the South African courts.

By opting in to our insurance when listing with Kampi.co.za, you agree to these insurance terms and conditions.

2.5 Claim Amount

The total amount that Kampi.co.za will cover for any loss or damage to the camper or its contents will be equal to the reasonable market value of the camper specified by the Owner. However, any over-inflation of the value by the Owner could result in a loss of cover.

Insurance claims will only be submitted once the value of the claim exceeds R5000. Any claims below this amount will be deducted from the breakage deposit paid by the Renter.

2.6 Excess

In the event of a claim, the Renter will be responsible for the first R5000 of any claim (the "Excess"). This Excess will be deducted from the Renter's breakage deposit. In the event of multiple incidents during a rental period, each incident will have its own Excess of R5000.

The Owner will be responsible for any amount in excess of the Kampi.co.za coverage, up to the total market value of the camper. The Owner is also responsible for ensuring that the driver and Renter have the correct licenses to tow the camper, and that the towing vehicle's license is up-to-date for the duration of the rental period.
