Amazon Seller Insurance

Whether you sell it, ship it, or source it, we help protect your Amazon store with every sale.

What Is Amazon Seller Product Liability Insurance?

Amazon seller insurance is a type of small business liability insurance built to protect sellers from claims related to an ecommerce business.

Once your store earns over $10,000 in monthly revenue, Amazon requires you to carry product liability insurance, and that’s where we come in. Insurance Canopy offers coverage that helps you fulfill these sellers’ requirements with a single, simple policy:

Every product business insurance policy is designed to fit your operation, whether you resell, dropship, private label, or manufacture your products!

Who Needs Amazon Seller Insurance?

You need Amazon seller business insurance if you’re selling physical products on the platform, especially if you’re hitting $10,000 per month or more in sales. Specific types of sellers who should consider insurance include:

Amazon Handmade Sellers | Amazon FBA & FBM Stores | White Label Sellers | Private-Label Product Sellers | Product Manufacturers | Indie Brands | Third-Party Fulfillment Centers | Multi-Marketplace Sellers (including Etsy, eBay, and Shopify)

Why Do Amazon Sellers Need Insurance?

Amazon may host your storefront, but you’re still responsible for what you sell. In most cases, Amazon will not take the blame for a non-insured claim caused by your product or business operations. That makes you fully responsible for any costs and repercussions.

Having the right protection plan in place can help keep you in business for years to come!

Did You Know? Accidents happen! If a product you sell causes harm, you could still be sued, even if it wasn’t your fault. Amazon seller liability insurance is designed to cover you for these claims.

How Much Does Amazon Seller Product Liability Insurance Cost?

Most sellers pay an average of $116/month or less for Amazon seller business insurance from Insurance Canopy.

Your price will depend on a few key factors:

  • Revenue: Higher monthly sales increase your risks and premiums
  • Product type: Riskier categories like supplements, tools, or electronics may cost more to insure
  • Claims history: Previous product issues or lawsuits can raise your premium
  • Coverage limits: Higher limits = more protection and a higher premium
  • Fulfillment method: FBA, FBM, and third-party warehousing all affect your liability

 

Every policy is tailored to your unique business, so you only pay for the coverage your business actually needs!

What Amazon Seller Insurance Covers

Amazon seller insurance with Insurance Canopy includes key coverages to help you meet platform requirements and stay protected from product-related claims!

  • $2 million in General and Product Liability Insurance

  • Personal and Advertising Injury included
  • Apply online in minutes, get a quote in 24 hours
  • Optional coverage add-ons are available
  • Add unlimited additional insureds
  • Tailored to your business and products

Included

General Liability Insurance can cover third-party injury or property damage caused by your business activities, like if a delivery driver trips on your steps while picking up inventory or if you’re accused of copyright infringement in your listing photos or ad copy.

Product Liability Insurance can help cover claims of injuries or damages caused by the products you sell, even if you didn’t manufacture them. Common examples include electrical products that overheat, supplements that trigger reactions, or kitchen supplies with missing safety warnings.

Most claims we see involve things like manufacturing defects, design issues, or missing labels.

Recommended Add-ons

Product Recall Insurance covers the costs of pulling unsafe or mislabeled products from your listings, warehouse, or customers. It can also include coverage for shipping, disposal, and customer communication, but not the cost of lost revenue.

Cyber Liability Insurance helps you recover after a data breach or cyberattack involving your Amazon store, like stolen customer info or hacked accounts. It can also help you notify customers, provide credit monitoring, and offer PR support.

Workers Compensation Insurance helps cover medical bills and lost wages if a staff member is injured while packing orders, handling inventory, or working in your office. This coverage is required in most states if you have even one employee (not including you).

Inland Marine Insurance helps protect your inventory, tools, or equipment while in transit or stored away from your main location (even if that’s your house). It’s ideal if you store inventory in a rented space, ship in bulk, or use Amazon FBA.

The Primary & Non-Contributory endorsement ensures your insurance responds first in a claim involving another party. For example, someone is suing you, Amazon, and a manufacturer for a faulty product. This waiver means your insurance covers you first instead of Amazon or the manufacturer’s insurance covering you.

This is often required by Amazon or fulfillment partners.

A Waiver of Subrogation prevents your insurance from seeking reimbursement from Amazon or other third parties after a claim, like a fulfillment center or manufacturer. It’s commonly requested in contracts to protect business relationships and prevent internal financial strain or blame for a claim.

A 30-Day Cancellation Notice automatically notifies Amazon or another party if your policy is canceled, helping you stay compliant with marketplace requirements.
