A product description comes before a policy comparison
A mattress range can vary by construction, materials and intended user. A brand selling adult mattresses should describe an expansion into other sleep products explicitly instead of relying on the same bedding label.
Use the questions below to discuss proposed policy wording with an insurer. They identify points to clarify; they do not describe guaranteed Assureful coverage or imply that every product in this guide can be insured.
Three questions for your insurer
Are materials and construction disclosed?
Explain foam, springs, covers and treatments where applicable. Ask whether the proposed policy has relevant exclusions or conditions and whether every line has been considered.
Are different intended users addressed?
Identify products intended for adults, children or other specific uses accurately. Ask the insurer to review those distinctions rather than assuming one accepted mattress covers every sleep product.
What happens with returns or refurbishment?
If you resell returned, used or refurbished products, explain the activity. Ask whether it is included in the proposed scope and distinguish product-liability protection from replacement or stock costs.
When the product range changes
A mattress brand introduces a topper made with different materials. The new product should be described separately in the category check and insurance review, even if it is sold as part of the same sleep collection.
This is an illustrative situation, not a claim example or an eligibility decision. Keep a written record of what you disclosed and the insurer's response, especially where a new product or activity needs further review.
Read beyond the headline limit
For affected categories, Amazon's November update specifies at least $1 million per occurrence and in the aggregate. The occurrence limit applies to a covered occurrence; the aggregate limits covered claims over the applicable period, subject to the policy wording. A certificate showing those figures does not explain all exclusions, deductibles or conditions.
Ask about the insured business name, products, activities, policy period and applicable territory. Review the full terms and Amazon's current proof requirements before relying on a quote or certificate.
Common questions
Does a $1 million certificate prove every product is covered?
No. The policy's product scope, exclusions, conditions and other terms matter. Ask the insurer to review the actual range; a certificate summarises certain policy information and does not replace the full wording.
Can I apply with less than $10,000 in monthly sales?
Yes. Assureful's application accepts sales figures below $10,000 a month. Use your actual sales or a reasonable projection. An estimate does not guarantee product eligibility, an issued policy or Amazon's acceptance of your documents.

For Mainland China sellers, Amazon’s separate AIA requirement also applies from November 2: new policies submitted must be obtained through AIA; compliant third-party policies submitted beforehand can continue until expiry. Assureful’s current application supports businesses based in the United States and Hong Kong.
