What does Transfer Shield cover?

When the Transfer Shield applies, it protects you when the player whose shirt you purchased leaves the Club via a transfer.

How much does Transfer Shield cost?

There is no charge associated with protection offered by the Transfer Shield, except for charges associated with shipping the shirt back to Kitbag and any difference in price between the price paid for the shirt and any higher price for the requested replacement shirt.

How long does Transfer Shield last?

When must you file a claim?

You have fourteen (14) days to file a claim with us after the transfer is officially announced by the Club.

What kind of player-movement is covered?

Transfer Shield covers any permanent player movement as a result of a transfer, for any official squad member according to the dropdown list of players on the website at the time of your purchase.

What is not covered?

Transfer Shield does not cover the following:

Any player item that is not an official team shirt (i.e., shorts, socks, training range or any other player products are excluded from the Transfer Shield programme)
Printing of a name not included in the squad list (i.e. customised name & number)
Any players who leaves the Club due to contract expiry/release/, retirement, injury, dismissal or anything similar

Autographed shirts

Do I need to register my shirt?

There is an information form included in your post-purchase email for the purposes of improving our programme that we'd like you to participate in, but this is not required for the Transfer Shield. All eligible shirts that are covered under our Transfer Shield will be honoured under eligible circumstances.

What can I get as a replacement?

Fanatics will replace your shirt with a shirt of the same Club with a different player name/number, or a shirt of the same player for their new Club, availability subject to stock.

For Example: When Raheem Sterling moved from Manchester City to Chelsea, if you qualify for Transfer Shield you can have a replacement shirt of another player in the Manchester City squad, or a Raheem Sterling Chelsea shirt. Subject to stock availability, the new shirt will be the exact same type of shirt, for example, if you originally ordered a men’s home replica shirt, the shirt you'd receive would also be a men’s home replica shirt.

The shirts are subject to availability and if the same type of shirt is not available, you will be provided with an alternative option(s) by Kitbag.

Can I upgrade my replacement to a different shirt?

Upgrades are allowed. While filing your claim with our Transfer Shield support team let them know you're interested in upgrading. You will pay the difference between the amount originally paid and the upgraded shirt cost at the time of replacement.

What do I do with my old shirt?

You'll have to send your shirt back to us. Our friendly customer support team will provide you with a postal address to send your old shirt once your claim is filed. IMPORTANT: You cannot use the return label that came in your original package for any Transfer Shield claims.

Where do I find information about player movement?

Fanatics will only recognise a transfer once officially announced by the Club, or applicable league.

I need to file a claim, what do I do now?

It's easy! Fill out some basic information on our online form found here. and one of our dedicated Transfer Shield support team members will be happy to help you get the process started.
