A: There are two types of insurance we support:

1. Asset Protection: This service works with USPS.

Q: How does Asset Protection insurance work?

A: Asset Protection is a USPS insurance service. To use it, simply check the "Override insurance type" box in SolidShip and select "Asset Protection" from the drop down menu. You do not need to provide a value for this type of insurance.
