Optional Shipping Insurance Details

On vacation! Reading Optional Shipping Insurance Details 3 minutes

We offer an optional ShipTection shipping insurance for all orders. You can choose to insure your order against loss, damage or theft for around 2% of the order total.

Simply enable it from the cart page and check out with the ShipTection product along with the rest of the items in your order to purchase protection.

We also offer delivery methods with signature confirmation for a flat fee that helps prevent package theft as well. We do not recommend purchasing both signature confirmation and ShipTection at the same time.

We do not cover package theft after delivery, so we highly recommend you to purchase either signature confirmation or ShipTection insurance for high value orders. Should something go wrong with an insured order, you can choose to receive a refund or replacement, whichever one you prefer.
