Real‑World Case Study
A client travelling abroad purchased a rare print and added it to their policy via the WAX app from their hotel room. Days later, the piece was damaged by airline mishandling. Because it was already scheduled, WAX processed the claim digitally while the client continued their trip. Compare that to a collector using a paper‑based insurer who waited weeks to add a new item and was left uncovered when it was lost in transit.
