Orinoco™
Dynamic Shipper’s Interest Insurance

Relying on carrier liability policies creates gaps in coverage and limits for the cargo being shipped. With Orinoco™ (Dynamic Shipper’s Interest Insurance), you can make sure you protect your customer’s goods above and beyond the limitations of carrier liability policies.

Orinoco™ – shipper’s interest, but digital.

This is first-party coverage, designed to protect shippers and cargo owners from the gaps in coverage left by carrier liability policies.

These policies can be accessed directly through the Loadsure portal, API or Self-Service Reporters so customers benefit from a convenient self-service experience. With nearly unlimited configurations in our advanced rating model, we can customize solutions to meet you and your clients needs.

How does it work?

Set limits and fixed commodity rates across all of your customers have historically driven up shipper’s interest premiums, but Loadsure’s AI-powered approach eliminates these issues, by enabling custom pricing and configuration for unique clients and risks.

IMPORTANT RISK WARNING: Insurance products are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. While insurance is designed to provide coverage for various losses and liabilities, it is important to understand that it may not cover all potential risks or losses. The effectiveness of an insurance policy depends on the specific terms and conditions, exclusions, and limits of the policy. It is essential to read and understand the policy documentation before purchasing insurance. If you have any questions or uncertainties, please consult with a professional advisor. Remember, the purpose of insurance is to provide protection against potential future losses, and it is not intended as an investment product. It does not provide a return on investment like a savings account or investment product.
