# Overview The Software Insurance product enables members to purchase insurance against their software development expense. We designed this product as a result of hundreds of horror stories we heard from our members about previous software development stories. When spending a substantial amount of company time and money, we believe there should be insurance in place to protect in case something goes wrong. The insurance costs $99 per month in premiums. There is only one rate for all members and no application is needed to participate. After 3 months of paying premiums, members can submit a claim in the platform. Payouts are given in the form of Hatch Apps marketplace credit. Credit can only be used within the platform, and not transferred for cash or other assets.
# Submit a claim To submit a claim, fill out the form here: Be sure to include as much detail as possible on the incident, stakeholders involved, and what went wrong. The form allows for unlimited file upload and we encourage members to be as detailed as possible. After you've submitted a claim, a member of our support team will reach out via email within 24 hours. Note that claims can take up to 10 business days to assess. Just like all insurance products, claims are assessed on a case by case basis. # Redeem credit To view available marketplace credit: 1. Go to the [Settings](https://platform.hatchapps.com/settings) page. 2. Click on "Marketplace Credit". 3. You'll see the amount of available credit. Note that credit is assigned on a company-wide basis. To redeem marketplace credit: 1. Go to the [Marketplace](https://platform.hatchapps.com/marketplace) page. 2.
