# Asset Storage & Insurance

### **Do I need to pay for the storage of my collectible?**

No, Courtyard does not charge any fee for storing and insuring your collection. You can keep it secure at no cost.

### Can I send my collectible to Courtyard for vaulting?

See [Vault Your Cards](/courtyard/about-courtyard.io/vault-your-cards.md).&#x20;

### **What happens if you lose or break a collectible?**&#x20;

All collectibles are stored in a secured vault and insured at market value. While unlikely, in the event of loss or damage, we will reimburse the insured value of the asset to the owner.&#x20;

### How do you guarantee the authenticity of the physical assets you store?

We have 2 layers of security and authentication:&#x20;

1. For drops, we only source the item from established dealers in the industry that have operated for many years in this field.
2. We’re fortunate to have advisors and investors who bring experience with building companies that are now leaders in asset authentication in various categories of collectibles. We are able to examine details of the physical pairs closely and perform a second layer of authentication before the pairs are vaulted.

We are already working on building partnerships with established companies that have experience in authenticating collectible assets in various categories. This will be key before we allow users to send in other types of collectibles.
