❓ Parcel Insurance for Beginners

🤔 What is "ad valorem" insurance in simple terms?

This is "actual value" insurance. If you send a €500 phone, basic insurance (by weight) will reimburse you ~€23, whereas ad valorem insurance is designed to reimburse you the full €500.

⚙️ How does it work?

It's simple: 1) You declare the value of your shipment (e.g. €800). 2) You pay a premium as a percentage of this value. In the event of a claim, reimbursement is based on the €800 declared, not on a derisory lump sum.

💸 Is it expensive?

No, with Claisy it's very cost-effective. Unlike carrier options, true ad valorem insurance is proportional. For a €100 product, it costs just a few dozen cents, protecting your margin and customer satisfaction.

📋 Do I have to prove the value of my shipment?

Yes, always. You must be able to prove the declared value with a sales invoice (for new items) or proof of transaction (for used items). This is essential to obtain compensation.

🛡️ Is it like my credit card insurance?

No, not at all. Credit card insurance mainly covers purchases, not commercial shipments. They have low Limits , high deductibles and are unsuitable for professional use.

🌐 Can I use it with any Carrier ?

Yes, that's one of the great advantages of independent insurance. Whether you use Colissimo, Chronopost, UPS or another, Claisy applies the same way, giving you unified coverage and process.

💡 Why isn't my Carrier insurance enough?

Because it's known for its ridiculous Limits (compensation by weight), numerous exclusions (luxury, high-tech, etc.) and slow reimbursement times (+60 days). Ad valorem insurance is the guarantee for professionals.
