OLB Group (NASDAQ: OLB) and Cuentas (NASDAQ: CUEN) Team Up to Bring Fintech Solutions to Over 32,000 Bodegas Across the United States

Benzinga

The average American consumer might not think much of their access to financial services. But for consumers that are underbanked or unbanked, the very high costs of relying on alternative financial solutions, such as payday loans, check cashing services, money orders, and pawnshop loans can be astronomical and create a vicious cycle of financial pain that many will likely never escape from. According to a report conducted by the U.S. Federal Reserve, an eye-opening 22% of American adults were found to be underbanked or unbanked. This means 63 million Americans either have no bank accounts whatsoever, or may have some sort of account with a banking institution, yet are still heavily reliant on alternative financial services. While the report found evidence of underbanked and unbanked consumers across all income levels, the overwhelming majority of these consumers were in the lower income bracket. These consumers were also identified as having less education or being racial or ethnic minorities, according to the Fed report. However, there is some good news for unbanked and underbanked consumers. The rise of financial technology, or fintech, has vastly expanded digital financial services that can help bridge the gap and allow these consumers to ditch payday loans and other predatory financial products. According to Allied Market Research, the global fintech market was valued at $110.57 billion in 2020 and is forecast to reach $698.48 billion by 2030. This represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.3% between now and 2030. The OLB Group (NASDAQ: OLB) and Cuentas (NASDAQ: CUEN) are two fintech companies that just recently announced a strategic partnership to help expand quality fintech services to the underbanked and unbanked communities. Breaking Down the Strengths & Key Assets of OLB Group and Cuentas That Will Be Leveraged in Their Partnership Utilizing their respective strengths and focuses within the vast world of fintech, OLB and Cuentas serve as a solid complement to each other’s business plans. OLB’s omnichannel payment processing platform, combined with Cuentas’s expertise in digital financial services and established relationships with major financial firms, provides a unique opportunity to help millions of American consumers gain access to fintech solutions that may not be readily available to them otherwise. OLB Group: OLB is an integrated financial technology and payment processing service provider that primarily serves small-to-mid-sized merchants in the United States. The fintech company’s Omnisoft platform provides cloud-based commerce solutions, which can be used for transactions that occur online, in-store, or on a mobile device. OLB’s Omnisoft platform is an established solution that maintains over 10,500 active merchants across all 50 states. In 2021, those merchants completed over 28.5 million transactions with a total gross value of around $1.36 billion. Outside of its Omnisoft platform, OLB's Evance subsidiary ( https://evanceprocessing.com/ ) will play a major role in the partnership with Cuentas. Evance is a payment processing solution that allows merchants to accept payments from tablet-based point-of-sale systems, mobile payments from services like Apple Pay, and more. In total, OLB maintains a robust portfolio of subsidiaries that cover payment gateway solutions, equity crowdfunding, short-term loans, cryptocurrency payment solutions, and more. Cuentas: Cuentas provides digital finance and e-commerce solutions primarily to the underbanked and unbanked Hispanic, Latino, and immigrant populations. The company’s offerings include prepaid debit cards, ACH & mobile deposits, cash remittance services, peer-to-peer money transfers, and more. The Cuentas General Purpose Reloadable (GPR) card features a digital wallet integration, as well as discounts and rewards for making purchases at major brick-and-mortar stores and online retailers. Furthermore, Cuentas is an official partner with VanillaDirect Load, which allows Cuentas customers to reload their GPR cards at a network of over 50,000 retailers across the U.S., such as Walgreens, CVS, Walmart, 7-Eleven, and more. Using the Cuentas App, consumers can obtain access to discounted Western Union (NYSE: WU) money transfer services, discounted gift cards to retailers & gaming subscriptions (Xbox, PlayStation, etc.), reward points from purchases and international long-distance calls, and more. In June 2022, Cuentas completed the acquisition of a 19.99% stake in Cuentas SDI, LLC, the owner of SDI Black011 assets. SDI is a leading provider in the prepaid portal and digital financial services space, which maintains a robust nationwide retail distribution network of over 32,000 bodegas and convenience stores across the United States. In 2021, SDI produced revenues exceeding $8.2 million from its vast retailer network. OLB & Cuentas: The Partnership Structure On August 22, 2022, OLB and Cuentas officially entered into a software licensing and transaction sharing agreement, where both fintech companies will establish a merchant services relationship to reach bodegas and convenience stores throughout the United States. Under the agreement, OLB will sell or rent their point-of-sale devices to merchants within Cuentas’s SDI network of 32,000 bodegas. Cuentas will look to incorporate and leverage its reloadable debit card solution on OLB’s POS platform. Cuentas will be tasked with marketing the OLB-branded products platform as a white-label app for payment processing and debit cards. OLB will look to develop Cuentas’s mobile application and associated products as an Application Programming Interface (API). This means Cuentas will have access to databases and services to allow its app users to register, obtain approval and complete the onboarding process to gain access to the Cuentas GPR, mobile app, and mobile wallet. "We're thrilled to finally say that Cuentas has achieved, under contract, the ability to diversify its products under Cuentas.com which serves the current Mobile App, available in Android and IOS. Cuentas.net will serve the mobile payments segment. Cuentas Mobile will serve the mobility customers that will be able to enable their cell phone services under the Cuentas family of products to become their financial services provider," stated Arik Maimon, Cuentas Co-Founder and Interim CEO. OLB and Cuentas have agreed on a 50/50 profit-sharing split on all net revenues generated from its partnership. On the OLB side, net revenues will be generated from the sale or rental of POS devices to Cuentas SDI merchants, services, and products from Cuentas’s white label platform, GPR reload fees, and more. Cuentas’s shared net revenues will come from reload purchases made through the OLB POS devices across its SDI network, retail digital products sold through an OLB POS device, mobile activities, and more. The partnership is believed to be potentially lucrative for both companies. OLB estimates the partnership will generate an annual revenue run-rate between $8 million and $10 million once the joint services officially launch sometime in December 2022 and into Q1 2023. Ronny Yakov, CEO of OLB Group, said, "We at OLB Group see the opportunity to expand our merchant services base in a market that we currently don't have a footprint in, and also provide existing products and services to those bodegas and convenience stores as an additional stream for revenues besides the 10,500 merchants that we currently service.” OLB Already Having a Record-Revenue Producing Year Thus Far Into 2022 OLB has seen tremendous growth in topline and bottom-line financial results through the first six months of 2022. Through the end of June 2022, OLB generated total revenues of $17,158,849 with an EBITDA of $602,643 and an adjusted EBITDA (adjusted for stock compensation) of $745,169. Compared to the results for the same period in 2021, total revenues surged 239.11% y/y, EBITDA jumped 145.17% y/y and adjusted EBITDA results showed year-over-year growth of 163.11%. Here is the full breakdown of OLB’s financial results for both six-month periods: Aside from topline and bottom-line results, OLB has no corporate debt, holds a cash position of $3.6 million, and reports strong insider ownership of 32%, as of the end of Q2 2022. In addition, 98% of OLB's revenue is generated from its profitable e-commerce businesses, which management estimates will continue to grow over the coming quarters. The first half of 2022 financial results gives OLB an annualized revenue run rate of $36 million, compared to only $9.6 million ARR for 2021. That represents a massive growth of 275% in ARR for 2022 compared to 2021. In the end, OLB management estimates total revenue from 2022 to come in a range between $36 million and $38 million. Considering the expected annual revenue run rate enhancement of $8 million-$10 million from the Cuentas partnership, coupled with the company’s expectation of $35 Million in revenue in 2022 (vs. 2021 revenue of $16.71 million), OLB's year-over-year revenue comparisons could be significant—attracting more investor interest. Overall, the OLB and Cuentas partnership is a major opportunity for both companies. The vast bodega footprint across the United States represents a prime opportunity for the partnership to upgrade these local merchants into formidable financial centers for unbanked and underbanked consumers. Furthermore, the current framework being developed by OLB and Cuentas is highly scalable and can be deployed into other markets to serve unbanked and underbanked communities around the world.

78 Percent of Non-Bettors Confirm Increased Likelihood of Betting Online If Properly Educated: WagerWire Survey

WagerWire

WagerWire, an innovative marketplace for open sports bets, found in a new study that non-bettors were 78% more likely to bet online if they were educated on how to bet. WagerWire will release a series of data from the study over the coming months. The study was conducted by Leger, a market research and analytics company. Lack of education and understanding were the top reasons cited for not participating in sports betting. As to the reasons why non-bettors aren’t currently wagering online, 43 percent said “they don’t feel like they know enough about sports betting” and 41 percent said “they don't know enough about how to bet online.” An additional 23 percent of the pool of non-bettors stated they aren’t betting because “they don’t know how or where to bet on sports.” “The data from our study clearly shows how a lack of adequate betting education is the greatest barrier to entry for would-be bettors. However, education is also the industry’s greatest opportunity to grow and expand,” said Zach Doctor, the cofounder and CEO of WagerWire. “There is a notable impasse in the current sports betting landscape regarding operators pulling back on their promotional and marketing spend, while also striving to grow their user bases and gain market share. While promotions and free bets are flashy, basic betting education can be the formula needed to develop more confident, engaged, and responsible players that will result in a stronger, more sustainable industry.” Education is a core tenet to WagerWire’s value proposition. The company is currently providing a growing community of content creators and social media followers with resources, information and tips on how to bet and how best to leverage its upcoming secondary marketplace. At this year’s upcoming Global Gaming Expo (G2E) Conference in Las Vegas, WagerWire will co-sponsor an event with Gaming Society focused on how to elevate the baseline education of bettors. Gaming Society Co-founders Jaymee Messler and NBA Hall-Of-Famer Kevin Garnett will preview a newly launched Betting Academy experience, along with an exclusive preview of their Bet on Women initiative. The sponsorship kicks off a new strategic partnership between the two companies focused on utilizing education to create a healthier and more sustainable market. “At Gaming Society, we believe that by educating bettors we can build a stronger, more sustainable and responsible sports betting community,” Messler said. “The WagerWire team not only shares our vision but is already developing unique strategies to integrate education into their platform. Through our new partnership we’ll unite both our platforms to build a larger community, create stronger data on bettor behavior and use this information to build new tools and content that will empower the American sports bettor.” WagerWire is the first start-up announced in the newly launched HPL Digital Sport and Cardinal Sports Capital Accelerator Program. The company also recently announced its seed round led by co-owner of the Miami Marlins, Roger Ehrenberg. The study was completed between July 8 - July 21, 2022, including 500 U.S. sports bettors and 200 non-sports bettors. About WagerWire We believe all bettors should have proven, confident options at their disposal. WagerWire empowers you to take control of your action and view your bets as a portfolio of assets that can be bought and sold at any time. Seamlessly sync your favorite sportsbooks to track the real-time value of your bets, stack rewards, and play with celebrities or friends. About Gaming Society Gaming Society is a new gamification and content company committed to making sports betting easy, inclusive and accessible to all fans. Founded by NBA Hall-of-Famer Kevin Garnett and sports executive Jaymee Messler, the platform amplifies fan engagement using games, betting, athlete perspective and immersive social experiences. Gaming Society reimagines sports betting and gaming, tapping into the fastest growing category in sports and allowing fans to double down on their favorite teams, leagues, players, shows and events with the incentive of rewards, prizes and bragging rights on the line.

3 Stocks to Play the Growth in Cloud-Based Services

Benzinga

The concept of cloud computing has been around for over a decade. However, the industry has rapidly evolved since its origins, which can be traced back to the 1963 DARPA initiative (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency). Cloud computing, as we know it today, is a delivery medium that can provide services, such as data storage, analytics, networking, software solutions, and more, over the internet. Before the rise of the cloud, companies were held to the old hardware approach, which would require a hefty investment in new computing technologies to achieve scale and the desired outputs. Cloud computing offers a more streamlined approach, which allows customers to only pay for the services that they need, with the option to upgrade as the client’s needs change. This allows companies to lower their operating costs, streamline their infrastructure and achieve scale when it is needed. The COVID pandemic has only accelerated the growth of cloud-based solutions, as society witnessed the rise of the work-from-home phenomenon and the continued demand from consumers for e-commerce capabilities. According to Fortune Business Insights, the global cloud computing market was valued at $405.65 billion in 2021. The industry is projected to grow to $480.04 billion in 2022 and surge to a massive $1.71 trillion by the end of 2029. This represents an enticing compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.9% for the period between 2022 and 2029. With the growth of cloud computing still seemingly in the early stages, here are three companies that stand to benefit from the underlying industry growth: Asure Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: ASUR) Asure Software is an Austin, Texas-based company that offers cloud-based human capital management solutions across the United States. Serving small and medium-sized businesses across many different industries, Asure’s suite of services gives companies complete control of every aspect of human capital management, from payroll & taxes to HR decision making, employee attendance, and even 401(k) & benefits integrations. In August 2022, Asure made two big announcements regarding the expansion of its 401(k) and HR services. First, Asure announced an agreement to integrate its FlexTax payroll tax filing engine with PrismHR’s payroll system, which is currently used by over 80,000 organizations. This also gives PrismHR users access to Asure’s Payroll Tax Management Services. In short, the integration with PrismHR vastly expanded Asure’s payroll & tax services business. In a separate announcement, Asure announced further integration of its payroll systems to directly connect with over 80 401(k) providers. The traditional route for employers to offer and manage sponsored 401(k) plans is extremely work-intensive and has been a major hurdle for smaller businesses to offer employer-sponsored plans to their workers. Asure’s direct integration with 401(k) providers removes that barrier by streamlining retirement plan options for companies that may otherwise not have the resources to offer such benefits. As workers continue to expect greater benefits and retirement planning options, Asure’s integration gives small businesses an edge in being able to compete for top talent. Turning to fundamental analysis, Asure looks appealing in its current state. The company trades at nearly a 25% discount to its book value, as seen with a price-to-book value of 0.76. Asure Software is a serious cash flow generator, which can be determined with a price-to-free-cash-flow ratio of 11.07. Furthermore, the company has very minimal debt and continues to hold a cumulative analyst rating of “strong buy.” Snowflake, Inc. (NYSE: SNOW) Snowflake offers cloud-based data analytics solutions through its platform. The company's Data Cloud offering allows customers to consolidate their data into a single source to help streamline business decision-making. The Data Cloud allows companies to collaborate data on a local and global scale. Rather than having several different programs or applications to manage various cloud functions, Snowflake wants to help cut through the clutter to integrate all areas of the cloud into a single platform. On August 24, 2022, Snowflake released fiscal second-quarter 2023 earnings, which showed impressive growth amid the current economic uncertainty. Product revenue surged 83% y/y to $466 million and achieved non-GAAP product gross margins greater than 75%. In addition, Snowflake added 12 new Global 2000 customers during the fiscal Q2 2023 period. On a guidance basis, Snowflake's management estimates third-quarter product revenue to come in between $500 million and $505 million, which would represent a year-over-year growth range between 60% and 62%. The strong quarterly results prompted analysts covering Snowflake to increase their bullishness on the company. Needham analyst, Mike Cios, initiated coverage of Snowflake with a "buy" rating. The strong recovery in customer growth during fiscal Q2 helped alleviate any concerns from fiscal Q1 regarding the potential for a growth slowdown as the economy weakens. In the note, Mr. Cios said “data is the new oil,” which means Snowflake could be on the way to continued growth over the coming years. On a fundamental analysis basis, Snowflake is very well capitalized. The company has no debt and cash per share of $12.38, giving the data analytics company a very solid current ratio of 3.20. Unfortunately, the company does appear to be trading at a lofty premium when looking at its price-to-sales of 33.90, price-to-free-cash-flow of 170.36, and a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 405. CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRWD) CrowdStrike is focused on cybersecurity cloud-based solutions. In a world that is increasingly becoming more digitally connected, the need for proper security has become a major point of emphasis. The company offers a wide range of cybersecurity services, which include Zero Trust identity protection, log management, threat intelligence, IT operations management, and more. Like traditional computing, the cloud can be vulnerable to hackers and criminals who seek to steal sensitive information. CrowdStrike's Cloud Security solutions provide continuous management and breach protection for any cloud in the industry's one and only Cloud Native Application Protection Platform. The platform is powered by holistic intelligence and end-to-end protection, which gives managers greater visibility and capability to act against digital threats. During the second quarter of the fiscal year 2023, CrowdStrike reported total revenue growth of 58% y/y to $535.2 million. The cybersecurity company reported a record net new ARR of $218 million, which represents year-over-year growth of 45%. Ending ARR grew to an impressive $2.14 billion, an increase of 59% y/y. This demonstrated not only CrowdStrike's ability to retain customers but to also continue to add new clients as well. The company added 1,700 new customers during the quarter. Looking at the fundamentals, CrowdStrike trades at a considerable premium to several metrics, despite being down over 18% so far in 2022. The company's cash position is stable, but CrowdStrike does have a long-term debt-to-equity ratio of 0.60, which weighs on its current ratio of 1.80. The company does trade at a 69x multiple when looking at the price-to-free-cash-flow ratio. Price-to-sales is lofty at 21.40 and forward price-to-earnings comes in at a steep 89.49. However, the company is a growth stock and thus relies more on revenue growth than it does on some of the more value-focused metrics. Bottom line, as long as CrowdStrike can continue its dominant growth, investors will likely continue to maintain a long-term bullish stance on the company.

A Bitcoin casino is an online casino that uses Bitcoin (or other cryptocurrencies) as a payment method. These casinos offer all of the same games as traditional online casinos - slots, blackjack, roulette, etc. but they also offer some unique benefits that traditional casinos don't. For example, because Bitcoin is decentralized, there are no government restrictions on where it can be used. This means that players from all over the world can play at Bitcoin casinos, even if they're located in countries where online gambling is otherwise prohibited. Another benefit of Bitcoin casinos is that they offer increased anonymity for players. When you create an account at a traditional online casino, you're typically required to provide personal information like your name, address, and date of birth. However, when you create an account at a Bitcoin casino, all you need to provide is a username and password. This makes it much harder for someone to track your gambling activity and winnings. Finally, BTC casinos tend to have lower fees than traditional online casinos. This is because Bitcoin transactions are not subject to the same fees as credit card or bank transfers. Are Bitcoin Casinos Safe Just like with any other type of online casino, there are both safe and unsafe Bitcoin casinos out there. The best way to determine whether a casino is safe or not is to check its reputation. If you're thinking about signing up for an account at a particular casino, take some time to read reviews from other players first. You should also make sure that the casino is licensed by a reputable gambling authority. One thing to keep in mind is that because Bitcoin is still a relatively new technology, it's unclear how well it will hold up to scrutiny from governments and financial institutions in the long run. There have already been several instances of people losing their Bitcoins due to hackers taking over their accounts or due to errors made by the exchanges where they store their coins. So while Bitcoin casinos may be safe today, there's no guarantee that they'll be safe tomorrow. How to Find a Good Bitcoin Casino The first difficulty is knowing which criteria to use when evaluating a casino. When gambling with fiat currencies, there are well-established regulatory bodies that oversee the industry and provide guidance on what to look for in a reputable casino. However, the cryptocurrency industry is still largely unregulated. This means that there are no established standards for what makes a good crypto casino. As a result, players must rely on their own judgment when deciding which casinos to trust with their money. Another difficulty is that even if a player does find a casino that meets all of their criteria for being reputable, there is no guarantee that the casino will remain so. Unlike fiat currency casinos, which are typically required to obtain licenses in order to operate, crypto casinos do not currently have to meet any such requirements. This means that virtually anyone can set up a crypto casino with little to no overhead costs. While this might seem like a good thing at first glance, it also means that there is very little stopping a malicious operator from setting up a fake casino and then disappearing with peoples' money once they have collected enough deposits. What is Bitcoin Gambling Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that can be used to make online payments. Unlike traditional fiat currencies like the US dollar or the Euro, Bitcoin is not regulated by any central bank or government. Instead, it relies on a peer-to-peer network of computers to process transactions. Bitcoin can be bought and sold on exchanges, and it can also be used to make purchases at merchants that accept it. One of the advantages of using Bitcoin is that it offers anonymity; when you make a transaction with Bitcoin, your personal information is not shared with the merchant. Is Gambling with Bitcoin Legal The legality of gambling with Bitcoin varies from country to country. In some countries, like the United Arab Emirates, online gambling is illegal regardless of whether or not you're using Bitcoin. In other countries, like Brazil, online gambling is perfectly legal as long as the casino is licensed by a reputable jurisdiction. If you're unsure about the laws in your country, we recommend checking with a lawyer or doing some research online before gambling with Bitcoin. Best crypto casinos are always licensed and regulated by a gaming authority. They have a 24/7 customer support, provably fair games, and a wide range of games from different providers. Best bitcoin gambling sites also offer generous bonuses and promotions. They have a responsible gambling policies and encourage players to stay within their betting limits. Benefits of Gambling with Bitcoin There are a few reasons why people might choose to gamble with Bitcoin over traditional fiat currencies. First, as we mentioned earlier, when you make a transaction with Bitcoin your personal information is not shared with the merchant. This offers an additional layer of security and privacy for casino players. Secondly, transactions made with Bitcoin are typically processed very quickly; in most cases, withdrawals will be completed within 24 hours. Finally, because Bitcoin is not regulated by any government or financial institution, there are no fees associated with making deposits or withdrawals at a Bitcoin casino. Bitcoin Casino Deposits & Withdrawals Bitcoin casino players have to wait for confirmations from the network before their transactions are processed. But how long does this take, and how does it compare to traditional banking methods? Let's take a look. Bitcoin casino players might be wondering how fast they can expect their transactions to be processed. After all, nobody likes to wait around for their money. The good news is that bitcoin transactions are usually pretty quick. The bad news is that there can be some delays, particularly when the network is busy. So let's take a look at what causes these delays, and how you can avoid them. When you make a transaction, it first has to be verified by the network before it can be processed. This verification process is known as 'mining' and it is done by computers all over the world who compete to verify the transaction. The computer that verifies the transaction first gets rewarded with a small amount of bitcoins. The speed of the transaction depends on how many computers are trying to verify it and how powerful those computers are. Transactions can sometimes be verified in just a few minutes, but at other times it might take hours or even days. This is one of the reasons why people sometimes say that bitcoin is slow. However, it's important to remember that bitcoin transactions are still much faster than traditional banking methods like wire transfers or credit card payments. So even though there might be a bit of a wait, it's nothing compared to what you would have to endure with other methods. Overall, bitcoin casino players can expect their transactions to be processed relatively quickly. There may be some delays depending on the network conditions, but these delays are usually only a few minutes or hours at most. When compared to traditional banking methods like wire transfers or credit card payments, bitcoin is still much faster. So even though there might be a bit of a wait, it's nothing compared to what you would have to endure with other methods. 4 Best Bitcoin Casino Slot Games Casino slot games are some of the most popular games played by casino goers.

Revenue Management Solutions Answers the Question: How Much Price Is Too Much?

Revenue Management Solutions

For restaurant operators facing record-high inflation this year, the question of pricing is a tricky one. Fortunately, new research by Revenue Management Solutions reveals how operators can find the sweet spot for pricing that works for both businesses and diners. In the face of inflationary costs, raising prices is the first line of defense for restaurant operators. These businesses face severe bottom-line pressure due to lingering COVID concerns, food costs, supply chain troubles and dire labor shortages. In response, quick service restaurant (QSR) prices have been steadily increasing, hitting a record 16.3% in August 2022. Consumers have taken the hit to date, but with wallet pressures looming, how much can QSR customers bear before breaking? That’s the question Revenue Management Solutions set out to answer on behalf of its clients —some of the world’s largest QSR brands. After analyzing in-store price increases by percentages year over year (Q2 2022 vs. Q2 2021) for 25,000 QSR locations in the US across numerous brands, RMS found that, yes, consumers have a breaking point. “When price increases were between 10%-13%, traffic started to severely decline, negating some or all of the net sales benefits,“ stated Revenue Management Solutions Director of Consulting Services Scott Foxworth. Chart 1 indicates the significant drops in traffic as prices hit the ceiling. When looking at average price increases across observed locations, RMS found that most locations were beneath the threshold, with increases between 9% and 10%. “Though the average price increases among observed brands fell below the threshold, the future is still uncertain,” said RMS Chief Operating Officer Mark Kuperman. “Some brands have an opportunity to increase margins with additional price increases, while others may have already hit the breaking point – even at a lower percentage increase.” To determine a brand’s unique price increase ceiling, Kuperman recommends a careful analysis, by location, of the following pricing levers: Customer type Location Price by Item Magnitude and timing of recent pricing rounds In a recent consumer survey, RMS found that the percentage of consumers trading down – ordering less expensive items or choosing less expensive restaurants – is rising. So too is trading out – of consumers that reported managing costs, 45% are ordering less often from restaurants. “Consumers are beginning to perceive restaurant prices as higher, and about 1 in 3 believe they are getting less value from restaurants,” said Kuperman. “Brands will win if they can add to the value equation with great service, abundant value options and creativity.” To download free sales, traffic and pricing trends from Revenue Management Solutions, go to revenuemanage.com/resources.

What Is Covered By Homeowners Insurance?

Benzinga

Homeowners insurance is one of the most powerful ways to protect your property and personal possessions in the event of damage, natural disaster, theft or personal liability. You’ll almost always need to acquire homeowners insurance if you’re applying for a mortgage, and it’s generally considered a wise move. Your home is probably your most valuable asset, and it’s not a good idea to leave it unprotected. Take a look at what’s covered by homeowners insurance and why it can be a smart investment. What is a Homeowners Insurance Policy? Homeowners insurance is a type of protection that covers damage to a property, theft or loss of possessions within the home and personal liability for injuries to others. Sometimes, it can cover alternative housing expenses as you wait for your house to be rebuilt. Homeowners insurance policies can vary widely, but they generally all cover the same basics. For additional insurance, you may want to opt for a more wide-ranging policy or one that covers your specific needs. Understanding Homeowners Insurance Coverage Let’s take a deeper look into homeowners insurance coverage and what you need to know. Damage to the Interior or Exterior of Your Home In the case your home is damaged from a disaster like fire, hurricanes, lightning or vandalism, your homeowners insurance will provide funds to repair or completely rebuild your home. Coverage often also extends to the contents within your home, such as furniture, appliances and other valuables. As long as it's covered by an insured disaster, you should be able to receive its full market value. In most cases, destruction from floods, earthquakes or poor home maintenance is not covered by general policies, and you’ll need to pay extra for these protections. Fine art, expensive clothing and jewelry may not be covered by all homeowners insurance policies or limited in the coverage of these items. So it’s important to itemize your valuables if you’d like them to be protected. You typically have the option to insure these items as a floater to your existing homeowners policy, or you may wish to insure them separately through a specialty jewelry insurance company. Personal Liability for Damage or Injuries Personal liabilities protect you from lawsuits arising from harm, injuries and other damages caused by you, your home or someone in your household. Say your dog bites someone and they sue you for their medical bills, or your child heads to a friend’s house and ends up breaking a valuable piece of decor — these are just some of the scenarios where homeowners insurance can protect you. The amount of coverage you receive for personal liability will depend on your specific policy and how much coverage you’ve paid for. Hotel or House Rental While Your Home is Being Rebuilt or Repaired In case of a disaster that causes major damage, you may need to find additional housing until your home is repaired or rebuilt. If you ever find yourself in this situation, you’ll be grateful for homeowners insurance as it can reimburse you for rent, hotels and meals. The policy will specify daily limits on how much you can spend, but you may be able to increase this amount if you pay more for your policy. Types of Homeowners Coverage Home insurance coverage is unique to your situation. The type of coverage you receive and the payout in the event of a disaster will depend on how much you are willing to pay for a policy. At a glance, here are the three most common types of coverage. Actual Cash Value An actual cash value policy will cover the entire cost of your home in the event of a disaster plus the value of your belongings. Depreciation is typically accounted for. Replacement Cost A replacement cost policy works like an actual cash value policy; however, the main difference is that with this policy, depreciation is not deducted. This means you’ll be able to repair or rebuild your property up to its original value. Guaranteed or Extended Replacement Cost/Value This policy tends to be the most generous, as it covers the complete restoration of your home even if costs go over your initial policy limit. With an extended replacement, you may be able to access up to 25% more than the coverage you purchased. This feature can help offset the costs of rebuilding your home, especially at current prices taking inflation into account. What Isn't Covered by Homeowners Insurance? Most homeowners insurance policies will not cover jewelry, artwork and other collectibles. Identity theft protection, damage caused by an earthquake or a flood, damage caused by pests or mold and maintenance repairs are also not typically covered. If you live in an area that is prone to flooding or earthquakes, you will need to pay more to receive coverage in these areas. Even in scenarios where your homeowners insurance policy covers valuables in your home like art or jewelry, it will generally not cover the full amount unless you make special arrangements for coverage and pay more for your policy. Recommended Additional Insurance Coverage Considering that not all your property and valuables are covered by homeowners insurance, you may want to opt for additional protections. In case of a disaster, break-ins or misplacing items, you’ll want the peace of mind of knowing that their value won’t be lost forever. Take a look at some noteworthy options for additional insurance coverage. Additional Living Expenses Coverage Homeowners insurance does cover basic living costs when you’re displaced from your home. However, most policies tend to have strict limits on daily spending. Additional Living Expenses (ALE) coverage goes a step further than traditional homeowners insurance to make sure you’ll have enough for housing, food, storage and other costs that arise from having to find temporary living arrangements. Specialty or Investment Jewelry Coverage Homeowners insurance policies won’t always cover your high-priced jewelry, and even when a policy does, it’s rare that you’ll receive the full value in reimbursement. When homeowner's insurance is not enough to cover your investment jewelry, you may want to opt for a policy that offers full protection, such as one through BriteCo. BriteCo offers affordable yet comprehensive insurance policies that protect your prized jewelry with up to 125% replacement value. Opt for specialty coverage that includes loss, theft, damage and mysterious disappearance, with no deductibles. Learn more at BriteCo. Liability Coverage A single lawsuit can inflict considerable damage on your finances. Liability coverage protects you in case someone is hurt on your property or if you or someone living in your home accidentally hurts another person or damages their belongings. Scenarios like these can give way to lawsuits, which in worst-case scenarios can cause considerable financial damage. Although most homeowners insurance policies offer some protections against personal liability, it’s rare to find full coverage. If you have kids or don’t want to be responsible in case someone is injured in your home, purchasing additional liability coverage can offer peace of mind. Don’t Cut Corners with Your Insurance Coverage Homeowners insurance offers considerable coverage for safeguarding your most important assets. This includes your home but can also extend to the valuables within your home, living expenses if you are displaced and personal liability. Almost all mortgage providers will require homeowners insurance. But the exact policy you receive will ultimately be up to you. You may want a general policy or more extensive coverage. In many cases, it can also be wise to get additional coverage for your most prized possessions, such as art or jewelry. When it comes to insurance, it’s better to be safe than sorry.
