U-PIC and Celerant Partner to Expand Shipping and Fulfillment Insurance Coverage

Celerant's eCommerce Integrates with U-PIC to help protect deliveries at a fraction of the cost of standard carriers

ISELIN, N.J., June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Celerant Technology, a leading provider of innovative retail software solutions in the United States for over 25 years, has announced a new partnership with U-PIC. The shipping insurance and protection organization is a trusted name in parcel shipping insurance with over 30 years of experience. The integration will help build customer confidence for retailers by allowing them to choose shipping insurance that is more affordable than the standard carrier options.

Peace of Mind for Shipping and Fulfilment Necessities

The partnership addresses a critical need for eCommerce businesses seeking to protect their shipments while managing costs effectively. When retailers ship packages, they maintain responsibility until delivery reaches customers. Lost, damaged, or stolen shipments can erode customer trust, generate negative reviews, and impact business growth. Traditional carrier insurance often proves costly, making U-PIC's alternative coverage, available at 50% to 90% less than standard rates, an attractive solution for cost-conscious retailers.

"In today's competitive eCommerce landscape, retailers bear the full responsibility for packages until they are safely delivered. Lost, damaged, or stolen shipment incur high costs and damage a business's reputation. U-PIC's approach delivers the same robust coverage at 50% to 90% less than traditional carrier insurance," said Bliss Landon, CEO of U-PIC. "Our proven, integrated solutions ensure coverage is implemented quickly and efficiently so our partners can focus on growing their businesses."


U-PIC's technology-driven approach seamlessly integrates into existing retail workflows, providing comprehensive coverage across all major carriers through a single platform. The company employs a streamlined "crawl, walk, run" integration methodology that ensures quick implementation and activation with minimal operational disruption for new business partners.

"This partnership expands our commitment to providing retailers with comprehensive solutions that address their evolving business needs," said Michele Salerno, CGO of Celerant Technology. "By integrating U-PIC's cost-effective shipping protection into our platform, we're helping our clients reduce operational costs while enhancing customer confidence."

Expert Assistance Anytime It's Needed for Retailers Shipping Orders

The service delivers rapid claims resolution within seven to ten business days, helping maintain customer satisfaction and business continuity. Unlike generic insurance providers, U-PIC's licensed experts specialize exclusively in shipping insurance and deeply understand eCommerce and parcel shipping industry dynamics. Through this partnership, Celerant clients gain access to instant coverage, competitive rates, and industry-leading processing times designed to optimize cost efficiency and reliability.
