The seas of eCommerce have never been busier, with over a billion new digital shoppers joining since 2019. But with this surge comes rough waters: rising delivery challenges, porch theft, and increasing operational costs. These threats don’t just chip away at profits—they can sink customer loyalty as shown from a recent study.

• 41% of complaints stem from delivery delays, which directly impact customer satisfaction.
• 74% of merchants say delivery issues hurt retention, and 50% describe the impact as “strong.”
• To meet growing demands, 37% of merchants now spend over $100,000 annually on expedited shipping, cutting into profits.

Even the most experienced businesses need innovative tools to stay ahead in today’s challenging eCommerce landscape. InsureShield® Shipping Insurance has partnered with Pirate Ship, the trusted shipping software that’s saved businesses over $2 billion on shipping since 2014. Together, they’re helping businesses ensure every package—from small shipments to large orders—arrives safely, on time, and with peace of mind.

Here’s How This Partnership Protects Y’er Loot

• Treasure-worthy Savings: Pirate Ship users unlock up to 89% savings on USPS® and UPS® rates for every shipment.
• Protection That’s Swift as the Wind: InsureShield pays claims in days, not weeks, through an easy-to-use portal—no more waiting for your gold to be returned!

Pirate Ship’s customer Lauren Behringer of Behrhaus says, “The added security of insurance gives me peace of mind, especially with large orders.” During peak holiday shipping, when the seas grow stormy, she trusts InsureShield & Pirate Ship to navigate those challenges with ease.
