Peace of mind is just one toggle away.
When requesting a shipment go to Step 2: Item Declarations.
There, you’ll see a switch labeled “Add insurance.”
Toggle it on, enter the value of your item, and you're covered.
How Much Does Insurance Cost?
The first $100 is always free.
Insurance costs $2 for every $100 (or part of $100) of your declared value, the same for every carrier.
Real-World Example:
You’re shipping an iPhone worth $500 via FedEx:
You select Add insurance, enter $500, and keep your proof of purchase
If it’s lost? We’ll file a claim on your behalf
You are reimbursed up to the insured amount—$500
Didn’t insure it?
You're likely capped at just $100—regardless of what the item’s worth.
Bottom line:
If it matters to you, it’s worth protecting.
