What Makes BaeGuard Different from Traditional Shipping Insurance?
Traditional carrier insurance can be expensive and complicated. USPS charges $2.75 for coverage up to $50, while UPS and FedEx often provide limited free coverage that doesn't meet most sellers' needs.
BaeGuard changes the game entirely.
Powered by U-PIC Insurance Services, this integrated solution delivers savings of 50-90% compared to traditional carrier insurance while maintaining comprehensive coverage across all major shipping carriers.
The key differentiator? Everything happens within your existing ShipBae workflow. No external websites, no separate accounts, no additional complexity.
Comprehensive Multi-Carrier Protection in One Platform
Supported Shipping Carriers
BaeGuard provides unified insurance coverage across:
- USPS (United States Postal Service)
- UPS (United Parcel Service)
- FedEx (Federal Express)
- DHL (Deutsche Post DHL Group)
- Additional carrier partners
This multi-carrier approach eliminates the need to manage separate insurance policies for different shipping methods. Whether you're sending a small package via USPS or an express shipment through FedEx, BaeGuard has you covered.
One-Click Coverage Selection
The insurance process is remarkably simple:
- Create your shipping label as usual in ShipBae
- Click to add BaeGuard protection during label creation
- See real-time insurance pricing instantly
- Complete your shipment with full coverage activated
No forms to fill out. No external redirects. No manual processes.
Fast Claims Processing That Actually Works
One of the biggest frustrations with shipping insurance is claims processing. Traditional carriers can take weeks or even months to resolve claims, leaving sellers waiting for reimbursement.
BaeGuard streamlines the entire claims experience:
- 7-10 business day typical processing time
- Direct claims management through your ShipBae dashboard
- Dedicated support team for claims assistance
- Transparent status tracking throughout the process
This faster resolution means you can replace damaged or lost items quickly, maintaining customer satisfaction while protecting your bottom line.
