All Risk Shippers Interest Insurance
ShipSimple specializes in All-Risk Shipper’s Interest Insurance, which is a comprehensive type of parcel, cargo / freight shipping insurance designed to protect the shipper’s (cargo owner’s) financial interest in their goods during transit, regardless of who is at fault for loss or damage.
Here’s what it means to you:
“All-Risk” Coverage: This is the broadest form of protection available. Essentially, it covers all physical loss or damage to your goods from any external cause, unless that cause is specifically excluded in the policy. Common exclusions usually involve things like improper packaging, acts of war, government seizures, or inherent defects in the goods themselves.
“Shippers Interest”: This part is key. It means the policy directly protects you, the owner of the cargo. This is a big difference from the basic insurance a carrier (like a trucking company or shipping line) has. A carrier’s liability insurance typically only pays out if they were negligent, and often has very low limits. Shippers interest insurance, however, pays you directly, regardless of who was at fault, and usually covers the full declared value of your goods.
ShipSimple Freight Insurance vs. Standard Carrier Liability
Don’t let unexpected losses derail your business. While standard carrier liability offers minimal protection, ShipSimple provides comprehensive, stress-free insurance designed for the modern Canadian business, covering your goods across land, ocean, and air.

Cost-Benefit Analysis: The Value of Shipping Insurance
- With ShipSimple Shipping Insurance: Your payout would be the full $45,000 (minus any applicable deductible), ensuring full financial recovery.
- With Standard Carrier Liability: A total loss of a $45,000 shipment would result in a payout of as little as $100 to $500, leaving your business to absorb a catastrophic loss of over $44,500.
