Shipping Protection is an optional order add-on selected by cart value to apply protection to an eligible shipment during transit. The product is structured in value-based tiers so the selected option can correspond to the total order amount.

Key Features of Shipping Protection

• Order-value based options: Available in multiple tiers ranging from orders under $50.00 to orders of $6,000.00 and above.
• Checkout add-on format: Listed as an UpCart shipping protection product rather than a physical item.
• Simple tier selection: The variant structure is designed to align protection with the value bracket of the order.
• Suitable for shipped purchases: Intended for online orders that require transit handling and delivery.

When Shipping Protection Is Useful

Shipping Protection is relevant when an order contains items that will be shipped and the buyer wants the order associated with a matching protection tier. The tiered format is especially useful for carts that vary widely in value, from small accessory purchases to larger equipment orders.

For stores that sell technical products, maker tools, parts, or hardware in a wide price range, value-based shipping protection helps organise coverage selection at checkout without requiring a separate product type for each individual item.
