CSP rental car insurance work through 3rd party sites?
Anyone know if i book a rental car through, say, kayak, and pay with the CSP, do i still receive primary coverage?
Couldn't find an answer. somehow i'm guessing "no", but hoping to be wrong.

From what I researched 3 years ago when I got the CSP, the answer seemed to be yes. I even read a couple of reports of people using it with Kayak, Hotwire, Priceline, etc. You have to pay with CSP when you book and then give the same card when checking in.
I never had to use the insurance myself, so I don't have a first hand experience on that, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.
Nowadays, I seem to book all my rental cars (5-10 times a year) through Ultimate Rewards anyways, because they're always cheaper than even Priceline's "name your own price".

Don't want to take it too far off topic, but just wanted to say that I checked the UR portal and found much lower rental car rates. Thanks!
I'm sure booking through the UR portal with the CSP card will trigger primary insurance as well.

I thought I read on TPG that cars booked with UR points didn't qualify for the primary coverage? I booked in HI using points and it was pretty cheap, but I kept having this nagging thought in the back of my mind.

Necro bumping this thread.
If I reserve a car rental with points (Enterprise Reward) for 3 days and paying the rest with CSP card for 1 day and taxes, would this still be covered under Chase coverage? or will I need to purchase collision waiver separately?
