Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureOffer shipping protection, also called shipping insurance or package protection, as an upsell in the cart, cart drawer, or at checkout on Shopify Plus. You keep all the fees. When a package is lost, stolen, or damaged, customers who chose protection know what to expect, so there is less back-and-forth. Set a flat fee, a percentage, or fees by cart value range, and exclude products.
Sam lets you run your own shipping protection program, fully under your brand — no middlemen, no revenue sharing. Customers add protection at cart, checkout, or thank-you page for peace of mind against lost, damaged, or stolen orders, and extended warranties (product protection) on product pages. Full control over pricing, visibility, and claims, with automation built in. Multi-language and multi-currency supported.
