The product, planned and developed by Mysurance-a Sompo Japan subsidiary-fully compensates cancellation fees for travel expenses incurred when an event is canceled or postponed, transportation is delayed or canceled, or the policyholder needs a sudden hospital visit or hospitalization, up to the insured amount. Two versions exist: Domestic Travel Edition and Overseas Travel Edition. For the Domestic Travel Edition, a 30,000 yen travel cost costs a 900 yen premium. The Overseas Travel Edition offers two plans: Wide Plan (covers event cancellations) and Simple Plan (covers only hospitalization and transport disruptions). Coverage applies only to reservations made within 14 days of the trip and at least 9 days before departure. The insurance does not cover the event ticket price itself, nor does it cover cancellations if the oshi withdraws but the event is held, or if a hotel is canceled because a ticket lottery was lost. The product has won the 2025 Good Design Award, the 2025 Shogakukan DIME Trend Award, and the 12th Small-sum Short-term Insurance Award.","whyItMatters":"The Oshikatsu Cancellation Insurance targets a specific gap in travel insurance for fans who spend heavily on event travel, but it explicitly excludes the most common fan disappointment-the oshi's absence-which may limit its appeal despite its awards.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe insurance is sold through \u0026#34;JCB no Hoken,\u0026#34; a service JCB launched in July 2025 that lets card members manage and apply for insurance through the MyJCB web portal. JCB said it was considering new services for the growing oshikatsu market, and Mysurance needed a way to reach customers at the moment they book travel after ticket lottery results. The two companies aligned on launching the product together.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMysurance, a Sompo Japan subsidiary, started operations in 2019 and by January 2026 had exceeded 2 million cumulative insurance contracts.

A trial calculation on the official website shows for 10,000 yen in travel expenses the premium is 300 yen, and for 100,000 yen it is 2,990 yen, roughly 3 percent of the reservation amount. For the Overseas Travel Edition, the limit can be selected in increments of 50,000 yen from 50,000 yen up to 1,000,000 yen.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"JCB's new Oshikatsu Cancellation Insurance covers event travel cancellations, but not if your oshi withdraws and the show goes on.
