When should you consider a third party shipping insurance?
Is Shipping insurance worth it and what’s exactly a “third party” insurance? Are you wondering what kind of compensation you can get? Here are some clarifications.
When you ship a parcel, shipping insurance is always optional. If you do not buy the insurance, you'll only receive a small compensation from the carrier or the shipping broker. That's why it is strongly recommended that you take out a third party insurance if your items are worth more than $100.
When it comes to shipping insurance, you can purchase the insurance offered by your carrier / broker and paying exorbitant fees for coverage that may not even cover the items you want insured. Using Secursus gives you peace of mind when shipping a valuable item, as well as significant cost savings!

What’s the real benefit to use Secursus shipping insurance?
Secursus insures your shipments instantly, at a lower rate than carriers or shipping agents. There is no need to request a quote as the price is the same for everyone who uses our service, just use our insurance calculator and see how much it will cost you to insure your valuable goods during transit.
How to calculate the cost of our shipping insurance?
To find out the pricing of our carrier insurance, all you have to do is enter the value of the shipment you want to insure at the top of the page. Our calculator instantly displays the price of the insurance.
Our site tells you how much to pay when you fill in the value of your merchandise. The cost of our insurance does not vary depending on whether you send 1, 10 or 50 parcels. Also, the cost of the shipping insurance remains the same, whether you send your parcels within the UK or internationally.
Do I necessarily have to choose a carrier that offers signed-for deliveries?
Yes, the delivery of the parcel with signature is mandatory because without a signature, we have no proof that a parcel has been delivered or not. This is a necessary condition for sending valuable parcels. Just make sure you choose the right shipping method when booking your shipment online.
Lost, stolen or damaged package? How does Secursus handle claims?
We know that losing a package or receiving a damaged package is a significant source of stress, which is why our claim procedure has been greatly simplified. Our claim platform enables you to submit the few necessary documents and chat with one of our agents. Once the documents submitted, we’ll process them within 7 working days and pay out your claim straight away.
How to send fragile items and still be fully covered by Secursus?
Secursus covers most fragile items but they must be well packaged to withstand normal handling in transit. You may not know it, but the parcels travel on automatic belts and fall into a huge box where many packages are stacked on top of each other. You need to make sure that your items can withstand a drop from about a meter without being broken. Otherwise, it just means that your items cannot be shipped with a regular carrier but with a "white glove" carrier who knows how to handle fragile goods.
Which scenarios are covered by secursus insurance? Are there excluded scenarios?
The insurance covers the liability of the carrier including:
• Loss of shipment
• Damage of the shipped items
• Theft occurred within the carrier's network
The insurance does not cover:
• Theft that occurs before shipment, or after the shipment being delivered
• Badly packaged items
• Cosmetic damage such as scratches, scuffs, deformations
What is the exact process to insure my shipment?
First, you must sign up on our website, enter your personal information, and click on the insurance button. Then, fill out the quick insurance form and add your credit card details.
Before taking out the insurance, you need to read and accept the terms and conditions of the coverage, and we highly recommend that you also check our shipping instructions. Once you purchase the insurance, you’ll receive a confirmation email.
Does Secursus provide tailormade coverage and APIs for large volumes?
Yes! We can create a custom contract if you need coverage other than the one offered here. If you send a lot of packages, you’ll probably be interested in our automation technologies, which allow you to insure your shipments seamlessly.
