What Technology E&O Insurance Requirements Apply in Missouri?
Missouri’s sales article, section 400.2-719, lets parties limit remedies and consequential damages, with two brakes. If an exclusive remedy fails of its essential purpose, remedy may be had as the chapter provides. Consequential damages may be limited or excluded unless the limitation or exclusion is unconscionable. A limit on consequential damages for injury to the person in the case of consumer goods is prima facie unconscionable, and a limit where the loss is commercial is not. Section 510.265, effective August 28, 2020, then caps punitive damages at the greater of $500,000 or five times the net amount of the judgment. The cap does not apply when the state is the plaintiff, when the defendant pleads guilty to or is convicted of a felony arising out of the acts on which the claim is based, or in specified housing claims. A technology E&O policy’s punitive exclusion and its consequential-damages definition should be read against both statutes, not against a single contract sentence.
What Is Tech E&O Insurance?
Technology errors and omissions coverage can help pay when a customer claims your software, hosting, installation or technology advice caused financial loss. If you provide tech products or services, check each activity; cyber incidents and unrelated professional work need separate review. Read the national Technology errors and omissions (E&O) guide.
What Should You Watch for With Tech E&O Insurance in Missouri?
A consumer-goods personal-injury limit starts out unenforceable
Section 400.2-719(3) makes a limitation of consequential damages for injury to the person in the case of consumer goods prima facie unconscionable. The same sentence says a limitation where the loss is commercial is not prima facie unconscionable. A shrink-wrap term that waives personal-injury consequential damages on a consumer device is in the first category. A negotiated waiver of lost profits between two businesses is in the second, and it can still be attacked as unconscionable on the facts. 1
An exclusive repair remedy that fails reopens the chapter
Subsection (2) says that where circumstances cause an exclusive or limited remedy to fail of its essential purpose, remedy may be had as provided in the chapter. A clause that limits the customer to repair or replacement of a copy does not survive that failure by itself. The section is in the sale-of-goods article. A pure services engagement is not automatically inside it. 1
Punitive damages use the greater of $500,000 or five times the net judgment
Section 510.265 sets the punitive award at no more than the greater of $500,000 or five times the net amount of the judgment against the defendant. It does not apply if the state is the plaintiff. It does not apply if the defendant pleads guilty to or is convicted of a felony arising out of the acts or omissions on which the claim is based. Specified housing claims under sections 213.111, 213.040, 213.045, 213.050, and 213.070 are also outside the cap. E&O coverage for punitive damages, if the policy gives it, should be compared with that greater-of test. 2
Which Tech E&O Insurance Providers Have Missouri License Records?
These providers publish a national listing for Technology errors and omissions (E&O); the license records below name the licensed entities and roles. Some records rely on company-reported information rather than independent regulator verification. A national listing does not confirm the product is available in Missouri. Check the regulator’s license lookup and confirm state availability for your business when requesting a quote.
At-Bay
At-Bay Insurance Services LLC
At-Bay’s license page lists P&C producer and surplus-lines broker license numbers for all 50 states and the District of Columbia. These are company disclosures and do not establish product availability in each jurisdiction. 11
At-Bay offers primary and excess technology errors and omissions insurance for businesses with revenue up to $5 billion.
Coalition
Coalition Insurance Solutions, Inc.
Coalition’s license page lists producer and surplus-lines licenses for Coalition Insurance Solutions, Inc. in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The page separately lists insurers; this record covers the brokerage entity only. 12
Coalition offers technology errors and omissions together with Active Cyber coverage for businesses that provide a technology product or service.
Corgi
Corgi Insurance Services, Inc.
Corgi’s company producer-license table lists 50 jurisdictions: 49 states and the District of Columbia, including DC license 3003091619. New Mexico does not appear in the table and is not included here; the omission does not establish that Corgi is unlicensed there. The company-reported table has no stated as-of date and does not establish product availability. 13
Corgi lists technology errors and omissions insurance for technology products and services.
TechInsurance
Specialty Program Group LLC
TechInsurance’s current licensing page names Specialty Program Group LLC / SPG Insurance Solutions and lists state license numbers, but labels Rhode Island “Individual licenses” rather than identifying a license for the named agency. RI is omitted because this disclosure does not establish agency authority there; this is a search limitation, not an assertion that the company is unlicensed. The remaining state entries are company-reported and are not an insurance product availability map. 17
TechInsurance arranges technology errors and omissions and cyber coverage for technology businesses.
Vouch
Vouch Specialty Insurance Services, LLC
Vouch’s licenses page, effective January 16, 2025, lists producer licenses in all 50 states and DC. Its separate surplus-lines table includes Idaho number 870820, while a footnote says Georgia and Idaho do not issue agency-level surplus-lines licenses. Because those statements conflict for Idaho, this record keeps Idaho producer-only and does not treat the table number as established agency surplus-lines authority. The page is company-reported and does not establish product availability. 18
Vouch lists technology errors and omissions among the core coverages in its technology-company programs.

Surplus-Lines Tax and Stamping Office in Missouri
Reported tax rate. 5% of premium; Missouri taxes the entire gross premium when Missouri is the home state 7,8,9,10
When Missouri is the insured’s home state, the state applies its 5% surplus-lines tax to the entire gross premium of a multistate policy; the regulator’s FAQ says the tax includes applicable fees. Eligible nonadmitted insurers do not participate in the Missouri Guaranty Fund, and Missouri generally requires the full amount or kind of coverage to be unavailable from admitted insurers before placement; an exempt commercial purchaser search exception has separate disclosure and written-request conditions.
What Should You Ask Before Buying Tech E&O Insurance in Missouri?
- Is the technology contract a sale of goods, and is the loss a consumer personal injury or a commercial loss under section 400.2-719?
- Did an exclusive repair or replacement remedy fail of its essential purpose?
- Is the punitive claim inside section 510.265, or is the state the plaintiff, the conduct a felony, or the claim one of the listed housing actions?
