It'd still be enabled prior to the original charge being made. The details in the link suggest that some charges would be exempted anyway (eg ones that don't use the new Checkout, ones over a certain threshold).

Insurance products are typically designed to make money for the provider. I'm sure they are doing a lot to lower risk.
