What is Shipcheck?
Shipcheck is a Shopify app that lets you offer your own shipping protection at cart, checkout, or on the thank-you page. Customers can opt in to protect an order from loss, damage, or theft in transit. You set the fee they pay — and that fee becomes store revenue.
Shipcheck is not an insurance company. It does not cover claims or process payouts for you. You run the protection program; Shipcheck provides the product, pricing, and widgets so customers can buy protection with their order.
Why use Shipcheck?
Many merchants used to share protection revenue with an insurer, or pay for coverage they rarely claimed. With Shipcheck you keep control:
- Extra revenue on the same orders — an opt-in fee that raises average order value without changing your catalog.
- Every dollar stays with you — what customers pay for protection goes to your store, not a third-party cut.
- Fast to launch — set fees, enable the widget, and start collecting.
- You own claims — decide what you cover and how you handle issues, without an insurer in the middle.
Key features
- Cart, checkout, and thank-you widgets — offer protection where it fits your funnel (checkout on Shopify Plus).
- Fixed or dynamic fees — one fee for every order, or tiers by cart value.
- Customisable look and copy — match your brand, messaging, and storefront language.
- Multi-currency — protection prices show in the customer’s active currency.
- Auto translate — widget text adapts to the customer’s language.
- Auto fulfillment — fulfill the protection line item automatically when you choose.
- Analytics — see how protection sales and orders perform.
Built for Shopify
Shipcheck is built as a native Shopify app: theme app embed for the cart, checkout UI extensions for checkout and thank-you, and a protection product synced with your store. It works with multi-currency selling and common Shopify setups so you can run protection the same way you run the rest of your storefront.
To get started, set your protection fees, then enable the widget from Extension status on the Shipcheck home page for cart, checkout, or thank-you.
