Common questions
Do my subcontractors need a SubShield account?
No. Subs receive a unique link to their personal upload portal. They can submit their COIs and certifications without creating an account. If they work with multiple GCs on SubShield, their compliance profile carries automatically.
What does automatic extraction mean?
When a sub uploads a COI PDF, SubShield reads it and pulls out the expiration dates, insurer name, coverage limits, and policy numbers — no manual data entry. You review and confirm.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Start free with up to 5 subs — no credit card required, no time limit. When you need more subs, upgrade to Starter or Growth.
Can I cancel any time?
Yes. No contracts, no cancellation fees. Cancel from your account settings and your plan reverts to Free at the end of the billing period.
Do you offer a money-back guarantee?
Yes. We offer a 60-day money-back guarantee. If SubShield isn't working for you, contact us and we'll refund your last payment — no questions asked.
