You already have orders to pack and customers to help. We review your FedEx shipping records for eligible late-delivery refunds, damage or loss claims, and billing errors, then handle the claims you authorize. You pay 50% of what FedEx pays back, and nothing if it pays nothing.
FedEx owes small shippers money in four ways. Each has its own deadline and paperwork, so it's easy to let it expire. A real person at Claimbird goes through your records and files only what FedEx's rules allow.
| What happened | FedEx pays | We need from you | File within |
|---|---|---|---|
| LateIt missed the guaranteed time. | Your shipping charge back, on First Overnight, Priority Overnight, Standard Overnight and 2Day A.M. A late perishable can be a claim for what was inside, on any service. Not when FedEx's record shows weather, an address problem, an unavailable recipient, a customer hold or customs. | Nothing extra. | 15 days from the invoice datefor the shipping refund. Late-perishable claims: about 60 days from shipping. |
| DamagedIt arrived crushed or melted. | The value of what was inside, up to $100 unless you declared more. | A photo or the order receipt, only when we ask. Upload it from your Claimbird login. | About 60 days from shipping |
| LostIt never arrived. | The value of what was inside, up to $100 unless you declared more, once FedEx's scans show it had the package. | Your drop-off receipt, only if FedEx has no pickup scan. | About 120 days from shipping |
| OverchargedYou were charged wrong. | Credits for duplicate charges, wrong surcharges, labels that never shipped and wrong late fees. | Nothing extra after setup. | 15 days from the invoice date |
Some denials can be refiled with the right proof while the claim window is open. Others are final. We'll tell you which, and exactly what proof is missing.
FedEx deadlines as of 2026. FedEx can change them, so we check before filing.
Four steps. Yours is the setup, plus a photo when FedEx needs one.
After you sign up, we text you to set up your store. At setup we collect your FedEx login (the email on your FedEx account, your account number, and your FedEx username and password) through a secure method, never by text, email or this website. We handle everything else. Your only job is uploading photos for claims we flag.
When we receive your FedEx invoices and reports, we check packages against FedEx's tracking record and promised delivery time, and flag possible late, damage, loss and billing claims. Eligibility depends on FedEx's current rules and exclusions.
Each claim is filed the way FedEx wants it, before the deadline. If FedEx denies one, we read the reason. When proof can fix it, we ask for that proof and refile.
FedEx pays you directly. When a claim pays, your Claimbird login shows our 50% of that payment. You pay it by Venmo or Cash App.
Try a package you remember, or see what a year of shipping could add up to. These are quick guides, not promises. FedEx decides what it pays.
If you send FedEx boxes every week and don't have time to chase every late or damaged one, we do it for you.
Overnight and Express boxes, where a late delivery can mean a shipping refund or a perishable claim.
Treats that arrive crushed, melted or late. A late perishable is filed as a damage claim.
Flowers that wilt after a late or rough trip.
Etsy, Shopify and other sellers with boxes that arrive damaged, go missing or get billed wrong.
We only file what FedEx's rules allow.
Examples to show how it works. These are not real clients, and not a promise: FedEx decides what it pays.
A Priority Overnight box arrives a day late. FedEx refunds the shipping charge.
Cookies sent by Ground arrive crushed. FedEx pays a damage claim for what was inside.
Standard Overnight flowers arrive a day late and wilted. A late perishable is a damage claim for what was inside.
The same label shows up twice on a FedEx invoice. FedEx credits the extra charge.
If FedEx pays nothing, you owe nothing. Claims without declared value pay at most $100.
Miss the window and FedEx won't pay. Here's how long you have. We keep track of these for you.

Who runs Claimbird
Founder, Claimbird
“Shipping claims take time, records and follow-up. Claimbird helps small shippers identify potential claims, organize the paperwork and track what happens next.”
Our standard fee is 50% of what FedEx pays on the claims, refunds and overcharge credits we handle, unless we agree to a different percentage in writing. FedEx pays you directly, as account credit, a check or direct deposit. When a payment comes in, your Claimbird login shows our fee for it, and you pay by Venmo or Cash App. There's no setup fee, no monthly fee and no contract.
Then you owe nothing. We only charge on money FedEx actually pays you. A denied claim, or a package we decide not to file, costs you $0.
No. Late refunds depend on the service, ship date, payer, contract terms, and shipment-specific exclusions. FedEx's current general U.S. domestic list includes First Overnight, Priority Overnight, Standard Overnight and 2Day A.M.; exclusions can apply for weather, address problems, unavailable recipients, customer holds and customs delays. Every claim has a deadline. We check the current rules and FedEx decides what it pays.
Once, at setup: your FedEx login (the email on your FedEx account, your account number, and your FedEx username and password), shared through a secure method we set up with you. Do not send your FedEx password through the website, text, or ordinary email. After that, we handle everything else. The only thing we'll ask for is proof on claims we flag: a photo of a damaged box, an order receipt, or a drop-off receipt for a lost package. We'll ask in your Claimbird login.
So we can do the work for you. With your FedEx login we download your invoices and claim reports, check every package and file the claims and disputes FedEx owes you. We collect it at store setup through a secure method, never on this website. Do not send your FedEx password by text, email, or this form. We use it only for your store's claims, and you can change your FedEx password any time to end our access.
No. Claimbird is an independent service and is not affiliated with FedEx or UPS. We file on your behalf, under FedEx's normal claim and billing-dispute process.
No problem. Your FedEx claims report shows us what's already filed, so nothing gets filed twice. Tell us which ones you'd rather keep doing yourself.
Right now FedEx's money-back guarantee covers First Overnight, Priority Overnight, Standard Overnight and 2Day A.M. (fedex.com, effective Feb 12, 2026). Ground and Home Delivery aren't covered for late refunds, but damage claims and billing errors still apply. FedEx can change these rules, so we check them before filing.
If a label was printed but FedEx never scanned the package, it was never shipped, and we'll tell you so the customer can be taken care of. If FedEx billed you for it anyway, we dispute the charge. If FedEx did scan it and it never arrived, that's a lost package and we file a loss claim.
Not yet. Check "UPS" on the sign-up form to join the waitlist, and we'll text you if and when it's ready.
