Shane Co. to Offer Jewelry Insurance Through Zillion
The loss and theft protection insurance is now available for in-store purchases.
Fourth-generation, family-owned jeweler Shane Co. is partnering with insurance company Zillion to offer jewelry insurance for its in-store purchases.
Denver—Shane Co. is teaming up with insurance company Zillion to provide insurance coverage to its customers.
Shoppers will now be able to add on loss and theft protection for their in-store purchases.
The fourth-generation, family-owned jeweler is offering the service at all 21 of its stores.
“As your friend in the jewelry business, we are a company centered around being a jeweler our customers can count on,” said Rordan Shane, president and CEO of Shane Co. “We have partnered with Zillion because we believe they share our dedication to this mission.”
The insurance would be in addition to the free lifetime warranty Shane Co. offers for the center stone, resizing, and maintenance.
“While we offer the best warranty in the business, which fully covers the jewelry while a customer has it in their possession, we wanted to make sure they have an easy and convenient coverage option for total loss. Zillion’s commitment to effortlessly insure our customers’ jewelry without applications or appraisals, coupled with the added ease of service for our associates, is simply phenomenal.”
Zillion’s insurance offerings will be added to the retailer’s existing point of sales system.
“Retailers are embracing embedded insurance to benefit customers and elevate service value,” said Adam Black, Zillion’s managing director.
“Shane Co. has a keen understanding of how to align with modern consumer expectations, and Zillion’s instant insurance affords both retailer and guest an immediate protection benefit like no other. It’s frictionless, and the Shane Co. / Zillion partnership puts the focus squarely where it belongs - on the customer.”
