The trap of parcel insurance included with carriers: a risk for your business

When you ship via Colissimo or Chronopost your Magento interface, you benefit from basic flat-rate compensation. This coverage, often presented as security, is in reality a sieve full of exclusions, Limits , and claim procedures designed to discourage you.

The problem is simple: insurance is not their business. Their goal is to deliver, not to compensate you fairly. The result?

  • Endless reimbursement delays: Be prepared to wait 60, 90 days, or even longer for a reimbursement.
  • Limits that are too low: Basic compensation barely covers the value of a loss leader, and certainly not your high-value items.
  • Hidden deductibles and exclusions: Many types of products are poorly covered or not covered at all.
  • Management by Carrier Do you use Colissimo, Chronopost, DHL, and FedEx? You will have to manage four different claims processes, four different contacts, and four times the complexity. A real administrative nightmare.

This system is a source of friction for your teams, a threat to your cash flow, and a danger to your e-reputation.
