What does FedEx's warranty cover?
- Default liability: FedEx covers shipments up to USD $100 at no charge.
- Declared value: You can pay extra to raise FedEx’s liability cap (not full insurance).
- Money-Back Guarantee (MBG): On eligible express services, FedEx refunds shipping charges if a package misses its guaranteed delivery window.
- Limitations: FedEx may suspend or exclude MBG in peak seasons or uncontrollable events.
- Insurance note: FedEx does not sell all-risk insurance. Higher coverage requires third-party insurance.

Recent FedEx customer warranty experiences
Quick success: Customers who supplied thorough documentation (photos, invoices) often had claims approved in under a week.
Claim denial: Poor packaging is the #1 reason for denied claims (FedEx may rule damage was preventable).
Tips from shippers: Always document with photos, save packaging, and file claims immediately. Persistence and escalation can overturn denials in some cases.
