08 / Plan protection alongside the shipment
Make cargo protection part of the journey.
Request cargo insurance alongside your shipment quote in the Flaminglobe platform. Review the proposed cover and cost before you decide, with the policy connected to the booked goods and route. We coordinate with the appropriate insurance provider; cover starts only when the provider confirms the required acceptance and issuance.
Why it helps
Built around the outcome you need.
Protection considered before departure
Insurance is easier to assess when the cargo value, packing, transport and delivery scope are clear. We help organise that information early and connect you with the relevant provider so the proposed protection can be reviewed before the movement starts.
Understand what the policy actually covers
A policy needs to match the agreed goods and journey. We help keep the quotation, insured value, exclusions and any deductible visible, so cargo insurance is a deliberate choice rather than an assumption hidden inside the freight price.
A more organised response to a problem
If loss or damage is reported, the shipment record becomes useful evidence. Our AI powered document workflow helps our team organise the available records and outstanding requests, while the insurer or authorised intermediary directs the claim process.
What’s included
What we take care of.
A clear scope, a practical plan and a team following the work through. Here is how this service fits your shipment.
Shipment and insurance requirement review
We collect the cargo description, value, packing and movement details needed to discuss cover. The origin, destination, transport modes and any storage are identified so the insurance provider can assess the actual journey rather than a generic freight description.
Access to suitable insurance providers
We help arrange a quotation through the appropriate insurer or authorised intermediary for eligible shipments. We make the provider and arrangement clear. Availability, acceptance, policy terms and premium are confirmed by that provider before cover is placed.
Policy and shipment record organisation
We keep the issued policy or certificate connected to the shipment alongside the relevant invoice, packing list and transport documents. AI powered checks help our team identify missing reference details for review, without changing the insurer’s terms or deciding coverage.
Claim-document coordination
When an incident is reported, we help gather the available shipment documents, delivery records, photographs and other requested evidence. The insurer or intermediary confirms notification requirements, assessment and next steps; claim acceptance and settlement remain with the responsible provider.
Make it practical
Review protection before pickup.
An importer selects insurance while preparing its door-to-door quote on the platform. The provider reviews goods moving by sea and then by road, including any planned storage.
Platform request
Cargo value, packing and the complete booked journey
Provider confirmation
Review cover, exclusions, deductible and premium; complete the required acceptance steps
Shipment record
Keep the issued policy or certificate with the booking and delivery evidence
Match cover to the actual journey.
A cargo-insurance request should describe the goods and every transport leg you want considered.
We help prepare the request and coordinate the cover documentation with the appropriate provider. Cover starts only as stated in the issued policy.
This sample is not an insurance quotation or confirmation of cover. Actual protection depends on the issued policy. Interactive examples use fixed sample information.
How we get there
Start on the platform. Follow every next step.
Consider insurance while quoting and booking, before supplier pickup. It is optional and provider-approved; selecting it on the platform does not by itself put cover in place.
Request cover with your platform quote
Add insurance to the services you want to review and enter the cargo value, product, packing and complete route, including storage where relevant. We pass the required information to the appropriate provider for assessment of the actual journey.
Review the terms and confirm the cover
Review the provider’s quotation, covered journey, exclusions, limits, deductible and premium. Complete the required acceptance steps through the stated process. Your freight booking and insurance request are separate: cover is only active once the provider confirms issuance and its start.
Keep the policy with the booked shipment
View the issued policy or certificate with your shipment records on the platform. If loss or damage is reported, follow the policy’s notification process promptly. Our team helps gather the available documents and delivery evidence for the provider.
