About this Product
Shipping Insurance Claims Automation turns a slow, email-driven claims process into a structured workflow that lives inside your Shopify store. It is a custom Shopify app that ECOSIRE builds, installs, and supports for you — not an instant App Store download. We tailor it to your carriers, your self-insurance rules, and your fulfillment locations before handing over a working system.
Customers report a lost or damaged order through an embedded claim intake portal, authenticated against their Shopify order and tied back to the original Order via the Admin GraphQL API. The app captures structured evidence — photos, unboxing video, carrier tracking events, and a damage description — and stores claim state in Shopify metafields plus an app-managed database so nothing lives in spreadsheets.
Each claim is routed automatically: carrier-side claims (USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL) are pre-filled and filed through carrier APIs where available, while self-insurance claims follow your own approval thresholds. A fraud-scoring layer flags repeat claimants, mismatched tracking, and unusually high claim rates before anything is approved.
On resolution, your team triggers a one-click reship — the app reads multi-location inventory, drafts a replacement order, and decrements stock at the correct fulfillment location — or issues a refund through Shopify. Order-paid and fulfillment webhooks keep claim eligibility windows accurate, and customers and agents both see live claim status tracking.
Because it is built to order, scope, carriers, and rules are confirmed with you up front. We install it on your store via a private OAuth app, walk your team through it, and provide ongoing support and updates. No fabricated benchmarks — outcomes depend on your claim volume and carrier mix.

Who this is for
High-volume DTC brand
A direct-to-consumer brand shipping thousands of orders a month that absorbs a steady stream of lost and damaged claims and wants to cut the manual back-and-forth per claim.
Fulfillment / customer-experience lead
The operator who owns claim resolution today and needs a single queue, evidence on file, and a one-click reship instead of juggling carrier portals and email threads.
Self-insured merchant
A store that has dropped third-party shipping insurance and self-insures, needing approval thresholds, reserve tracking, and fraud checks to keep claim costs predictable.

Frequently Asked Questions about Shipping Insurance Claims Automation
Is this an instant Shopify App Store download?
No. This is a build-to-order custom app. ECOSIRE builds it around your carriers, self-insurance rules, and fulfillment setup, then installs it on your store as a private OAuth app. You get a working, tailored system rather than a generic plug-in.
How long does delivery take?
A typical build runs about one working week from scope sign-off, depending on how many carriers you file with and how complex your self-insurance and reship rules are. We confirm a firm timeline with you before starting and keep you updated through build and installation.
What ongoing support and updates do I get?
Every build includes an agreed post-launch support window covering bug fixes, Shopify API version updates, and help for your team. We can also continue on a maintenance arrangement for new carriers, rule changes, or feature additions after launch.
Can it file claims directly with my carriers?
Where a carrier exposes a claims API (varies by carrier and account), the app pre-fills and submits claims automatically. Where no API is available, it assembles a complete, ready-to-submit claim packet with all evidence so your team files in minutes instead of rebuilding the case by hand.
How does the one-click reship know where to pull stock from?
The app reads your Shopify multi-location inventory through the Admin GraphQL API, drafts a replacement order, and decrements stock at the correct fulfillment location based on your routing rules — so reships respect real availability instead of overselling.
What about fraudulent or repeat claims?
Each claim is scored against signals like repeat claimants, tracking that does not match the reported issue, and abnormal claim-rate spikes. Flagged claims are held for manual review before any reship or refund, so the automation never approves a suspicious claim on its own.
