FAQ Shipsurance FAQ for shipping insurance and the shipping claims process ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Frequently asked questions about setup, labels, rates, and returns ##### How does Shipsurance work with ShipStation? Shipsurance works inside ShipStation’s shipment workflow. You choose Shipsurance from the Insurance drop-down when you configure a shipment, and ShipStation sets the Insure Amt to the order total by default. The same payment method used for your ShipStation subscription is also used for Shipsurance purchases. ##### How do I file a Shipsurance claim in ShipStation? Go to the Shipments tab, locate the shipment, scroll to the Insurance column, and click the Shipsurance link. Then follow the onscreen instructions to submit your claim. If the Insurance field is blank, no insurance was purchased for that order when the label was created. ##### What happens after you've filed a claim? After you’ve filed a claim, you can review it on the Shipsurance Claim Status page. If the claim requires a physical form for your customer to sign, you can download the claim statement or affidavit and send it out. ##### Does Shipsurance cover stolen packages? Shipsurance covers loss and damage while a package is in transit. If you’re dealing with a stolen package, review the Shipsurance terms and conditions before you file a claim to confirm restrictions and special requirements for that shipment. ##### Who has the best shipping insurance for growing sellers? The best shipping insurance is the option that stays close to your fulfillment workflow and is easy for your team to manage. ShipStation keeps coverage, shipment details, and the shipping claims process connected, which helps you protect orders without adding another disconnected tool. ##### Can I use my existing Shipsurance account with ShipStation? Yes. Contact ShipStation Support if you want to set up ShipStation to use your personal Shipsurance account instead. When you connect a personal account, you cannot manage Shipsurance funds through ShipStation, and claims must be filed with Shipsurance directly. ##### Is Shipsurance available only in the United States? For ShipStation accounts, Shipsurance is available to businesses based in the United States that use the Legacy version of ShipStation. Shipsurance itself serves shippers in the United States and supports domestic and worldwide shipment coverage.
