New shipping program offers insured same-day delivery of luxury watches
Cabrella has partnered with Shipsi as part of a move which can provide an insured same-day delivery service of luxury goods to its client base.
The service, live now, is available across the US for any Cabrella client whose shipment origin and destination fall within 20 miles of each other.
When that condition is met, same-day delivery appears as a shipping option inside the Cabrella platform and via API. Clients can then compare carriers and pricing in one place and select the option that best fits their shipment.
The service is a result of Cabrella, a leading provider of shipping and insurance logistics risk management solutions, collaborating with Shipsi, a consumer delivery experience, on a strategic partnership.
Every same-day shipment through Cabrella’s Shipsi integration includes full insurance coverage under Cabrella’s all-risk program, with claims paid on declared value, with coverage limits up to $150,000.
A signature is included on every delivery with options for ID verification at drop off, while live driver tracking gives both the shipper and the recipient real-time visibility into the shipment’s status.
Deliveries are then fulfilled by Shipsi’s network, which operates across more than 5,000 cities nationally.
Cabrella and Shipsi are exploring the value they can bring to the luxury market, particularly for business-to-business transactions.
Founder of Cabrella, Benjamin Meskin, explained: “Luxury buyers have changed their expectations, and the logistics industry has largely kept up with them on speed. The coverage side hadn’t. A retailer offering same-day delivery on a $5,000 watch should be just as protected as they would be shipping that same watch through FedEx overnight. Now they are.”
