§1781.4. Authority of vendors of portable electronics
A. An employee or authorized representative of a vendor may sell or offer portable electronics insurance to customers and shall not be subject to licensure as an insurance producer under this Part provided that:
(1)The vendor obtains a limited lines license to authorize its employees or authorized representatives to sell or offer portable electronics insurance pursuant to this Part.
(2)The vendor shall develop a training program for employees and authorized representatives of the vendor. The training required by this Section shall comply with all of the following:
(a)The training shall be delivered to employees and authorized representatives of vendors who are directly engaged in the activity of selling or offering portable electronics insurance prior to the engagement in any sale or offer of portable electronics insurance to any customer by the employee or authorized representative.
(b)The training may be provided in electronic form.
(c)The training shall include instruction about the portable electronics insurance offered to customers and the disclosures required under this Part.
B. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, employees or authorized representatives of a vendor of portable electronics shall not be compensated based primarily on the number of customers enrolled for portable electronics insurance coverage but may receive compensation for activities under the limited lines license which is incidental to their overall compensation.
C. The charges for portable electronics insurance coverage may be billed and collected by the vendor of portable electronics. Any charge to the enrolled customer for coverage that is not included in the cost associated with the purchase or lease of portable electronics or related services shall be separately itemized on the enrolled customer's bill. If the portable electronics insurance coverage is included with the purchase or lease of portable electronics or related services, the vendor shall clearly and conspicuously disclose to the enrolled customer that the portable electronics insurance coverage is included with the portable electronics or related services.
Vendors billing and collecting such charges shall not be required to maintain such funds in a segregated account provided that the vendor is authorized by the insurer to hold such funds in an alternative manner and remits such amounts to the supervising entity within sixty days of receipt. All funds received by a vendor from an enrolled customer for the sale of portable electronics insurance shall be considered funds held in trust by the vendor in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the insurer.
Vendors may receive compensation for billing and collection services.
