There is this shipping protection option I have found on some stores and am really wondering how to add to my store!
I’m bit late to reply to this, just in case you’re still looking for the app, Shipcheck is the best option out there for adding Shipping protection easily to your store
If you want the exact same feature, use a cart upsell app that injects an optional “Shipping Protection” line item in cart/drawer checkout flow. Apps like Shipcheck, Navidium, Captain Insure or Order Protection do this.
Best real setup: create a product called “Shipping Protection”, let the app auto-calculate fee (usually 1–3% of cart value), and add a checkbox/toggle in cart. When customer selects it, the app adds that product to cart via AJAX so no checkout edits needed.
Important: don’t hardcode it in theme files unless you know Liquid + AJAX cart API, because app-based method handles analytics, exclusions, refunds, and mobile UX better.
Also make sure it’s optional, clearly worded, and not preselected, otherwise conversion can drop or customers may complain.
Hi @stalitic
That shipping insurance box is typically added through third party apps, not Shopify native. Common limitations are Route, Navidium, Captain Insure and also Order Protection applications. There is an upsell toggle in the cart or checkout drawer. You either collect fees or outsource claims according to provider setup and the chosen pricing model.
