Questions About eBay Business Insurance
eBay packages may be insured with Insurance Canopy’s Inland Marine coverage. This coverage is not included in the base policy and must be added to your plan as an additional coverage (or additional endorsement).
Inland Marine coverage is our version of eBay package insurance, meaning it covers items in transit over land (like shipping a product to a customer). If a package is damaged beyond repair or stolen before it gets to the buyer, this coverage may help you cover the costs to resend a package and refund a buyer.
Sellers with at least 300 transactions per month have the chance to opt-in to eBay’s shipping insurance service, ShipCover. However, the coverage only applies to the shipping of the package and not for any damages or injuries that may occur later on due to damages or defects sustained during shipping.
ShipCover prices are steep, with basic coverage for one domestic shipment priced at $1.70 and $2.83 for international shipments. If you meet the minimum sales quota, you could be spending a minimum of $510 on shipping insurance each month—which can add up to over $10K a year.
For a fraction of that cost, you could get full business liability coverage with Insurance Canopy. Our plans include eBay shipping insurance, keeping your products protected before, during, and after shipping.
eBay currently does not require you to have insurance to sell on eBay, but they don’t do much to help protect sellers in the case of a claim. Most of eBay’s policies protect buyers and leave sellers left to defend themselves. This leaves uninsured eBay sellers facing huge risks they may not be aware of—and that can lead to lawsuits, expensive medical bills, and even termination of your seller account.
When it comes to instances of liability claims, eBay’s User Agreement states: “…in no event will eBay …be liable to you or any third party under any claim at law or in equity for any consequential damages or losses… and you agree not to hold us responsible, for any damages or losses…”
Insurance Canopy bridges this gap by offering online seller insurance for eBay businesses. Don’t wait for an accident to happen to you—be proactive in managing your risks with a protection plan designed for you.
