How pricing works
Premiums vary by business type, risk level, and coverage details—not a flat rate.
Cargo type, Value, and Fragility
Higher value, fragile, or high-risk cargo generally increases premiums due to greater potential severity and loss likelihood.
Shipping Method and Carrier
Shipping methods and carrier reliability influence premiums, with riskier transportation increasing rates due to loss.
Claims History
Past claims signal future risk, often raising premiums for businesses with frequent losses.
Coverage Limits
Higher liability limits and lower deductibles increase your policy's overall annual premium cost.
Origin, Destination, and Transit Route
Higher risk origins, destinations, and transit routes increase premiums because theft, weather, political, and hazards intensify.
Packaging and Loss Prevention Measures
Strong packaging and loss prevention measures reduce damage and theft risks, potentially lowering cargo insurance premiums.
