Default Re: Suggestions for USPS fulfillment

The following is from an article at this link: http://www.ecommercebytes.com/cab/abn/y13/m07/i09/s01


The date was 2013. Does anyone know if it still applies?


According to Eric Nash of Stamps.com, the $100 Priority Mail insurance is only for Commercial Plus customers. "Overall, Stamps.com prints Commercial Base pricing for all packages and the USPS will be offering $50 of free coverage in Priority Mail for customers." Those customers who have been approved for Commercial Plus pricing from the USPS will automatically receive $100 of coverage for all of their Priority Mail packages when they print their shipping labels using Stamps.com.
"It's important to note that this free insurance coverage is being added from the USPS for shipping labels that include the Intelligent Mail package barcode," Nash said, and since the insurance is provided from the USPS, all claims would need to be processed with the USPS at usps.com/domestic-claims.
Endicia Product Marketing Manager Jessica Foth said Endicia would also support the new free USPS insurance coverage for all of its customers automatically, both for Commercial Base and Commercial Plus shippers.

P.S.- FWIW Around 33:30 minutes into the linked Webinar the speaker states that USPS will not honor the free $50/$100 insurance if the postage cost is hidden.
