Why is shipping insurance so important in 2024?

In unsettling news for eCommerce sellers, "porch piracy" is on the rise in many locations. This is where packages are stolen after they are delivered by opportunistic thieves, resulting in confusion from customers who receive a delivery confirmation but never receive their goods.

Widely reported as a difficult crime to enforce, law enforcement agencies report arrests and recover parcels in less than 8-10% of reported cases. Similarly, as courier networks operate under increased strain, the risk of loss increases.
