What is Lori Device Protection?

It's a fast and convenient device protection solution. Lori will protect your device, old or new. You choose the plan that provide the amount of coverage you need.

Why should I protect my device?

You should protect your device because things happen, plain and simple. Nobody expects to break their device, but just about everyone does. Your life is your phone - pictures, contacts, documents, memories. You don't want to lose that. Some devices cost more than $1,000 to replace. Others cost hundreds to repair. You don't want to make a broken phone situation worse by spending that much money on a new one, trust us.

How does Lori Device Protection Work?

It’s simple. Choose the plan that’s right for you, enter payment info, complete our Tech Check so we can ensure your device is in working order, and have peace of mind that you’ll be back up and running quickly when you have a covered incident.

Does Lori offer device protection for my phone?

Lori offers coverage for Apple, Google, and Samsung devices. Don’t worry though, we’re expanding the list of covered devices all the time. It only takes a minute to check and, if you like, you can have us email you when we add your device.

That’s not how Lori does it. Begin filing a claim by logging into the app or visiting the website. If you prefer to speak with someone on the phone, customers may call 1-866-FOR-LORI (1-866-367-5674) to file a claim.
