What does Worry-Free Purchase cover?

Seel Worry-Free Purchase covers package loss, damage, and theft that meet the following criteria.

‍Loss: Domestic packages not delivered before the 30th day following order fulfillment (i.e., the date when the order is shipped by the merchant) or international packages not delivered before the 60th day following order fulfillment are considered lost. The compensation for lost packages is the value paid for the purchased item(s).

‍Theft: Packages marked “delivered” yet not received are considered a “theft”, though this may be due to some mishaps that are not criminal in nature. To qualify as a case of theft, supporting documents, such as a police report, may be required. (See “What are the steps to submit my claim?”) The compensation for a verified case of theft is the value paid for the purchased item(s).

‍Damage: Shipping Protection covers item damages to the point that the item(s) are unusable, clearly fractured, shattered, bent (if not bendable), crushed, etc., but does not cover cosmetic damage (scratches, dents, etc.), manufacturing damages, packaging errors, or unsealed items. The compensation for damaged items is up to the value paid for the purchased item(s).

Note: Total compensation for one Worry-Free Purchase coverage is up to the value actually paid for the item(s).

How does Worry-Free Purchase resolve your shipping issues?

Here's the customer experience of Worry-Free Purchase:
1. Shopper orders from the merchant, with Worry-Free Purchase opted in.
2. Shopper receives an email with their Worry-Free Purchase cover details, as well as instructions on how to report an issue.
3. If their package gets damaged or lost during transit, or is delayed, they can report the issue via Seel Claim Portal. 
4. Seel will programmatically assess the issue using policy rules/guidelines to determine if the reported order issue qualifies for a payout.
5. If the reported issue does qualify, a refund will be automatically sent to the shopper in a prepaid credit card via email. If the reported issue doesn't qualify, an email will be sent to the shopper to notify them of the denial and the reason.

Is there any time limit for issue reporting?

For reporting an issue, please be aware of the following conditions and requirements:
· Issues of loss, where the package is “not delivered” as per the carrier's information, must be reported within 90 days after the order date.
