Why consider third party insurance?
Secursus saves you up to 40% and protects all your valuable goods up to £90,000 per parcel.
If you are looking for third party insurance, you probably already noticed that UPS insurance is very expensive and does not cover certain types of items prone to theft. Moreover, the list of excluded goods is very long.
When you compare parcel solutions, you'll see that Secursus offers a more comprehensive and affordable option for insuring your valuable items. On the other hand, Secursus is an online insurance insuring 99% of goods sold on the internet, even the riskiest : watches, jewelleries, phones, laptops, second-hand items, luxury goods etc. We offer a coverage up to 100,000€. This coverage includes full reimbursement of the value of your product in the event of loss or theft. If your item is damaged in transit, our insurance will pay for the repair value if your item can be repaired. If it cannot be fixed, you will receive full compensation. To insure delivery, insuring with Secursus gives you more protection and peace of mind.
For example, both DPD insurance and Royal Mail insurance have limited coverage for high-value items, often excluding electronics and jewellery. Insuring with us also means that you will not need to disclose the actual value of your package to UPS (except for customs purposes when mandatory). This means that the delivery staff at UPS will not be able to tell if there is a valuable item or product inside your package.
