Beyond the feature checklist — here's how Umbrella transforms your warranty program from a cost center into a profit engine.
With Extend, customers see Extend's branding throughout the warranty experience. With Umbrella, every touchpoint — from the offer widget to the claims portal — carries your brand. Build loyalty, not someone else's.
Extend takes a large revenue share, leaving you with pennies. Umbrella lets you set your own pricing and keep the lion's share of every warranty sold.
Extend only works online. Umbrella powers warranty programs across ecommerce, in-store POS, third-party marketplaces, and call centers — one platform, every channel.
Extend dictates your plan structures and pricing. Umbrella puts you in the driver's seat — design custom warranty plans, set your own terms, adjust pricing in real-time, and own the entire customer relationship from purchase to claim.
Extend handles claims manually. Umbrella uses AI for instant adjudication — photo verification, smart routing, and automated approvals that cut resolution time by 80%.
With Extend, they keep your customer data. With Umbrella, every customer record, warranty sale, and claim history belongs to you — export anytime, no lock-in.
No waiting on account managers. Launch programs, adjust plans, review claims, and pull reports from a single admin dashboard — on your schedule.
Everything you need to know about moving from Extend to Umbrella — migration, pricing, integrations, and more.
The biggest difference is ownership. With Extend, customers see Extend's brand, Extend sets your revenue share, and Extend owns your customer data. Umbrella is fully white-label — your brand, your margins, your data. Plus, Umbrella supports multi-channel (online, in-store, third-party) while Extend is ecommerce-only.
Yes. We offer a guided migration path that includes data import, plan mapping, and parallel testing. Most brands complete the switch in under two weeks with zero downtime for their customers. Our onboarding team handles the heavy lifting.
Extend takes a significant revenue share from every warranty sold — often 50% or more. With Umbrella, you control your own pricing and margins. Most brands see 30–40% higher profit per warranty after switching. We charge a transparent platform fee, not a revenue share.
Yes — Umbrella has a native Shopify app rated 5/5 on the App Store. Installation takes minutes, and the warranty offer widget is fully customizable to match your store's look and feel. We also support WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and custom storefronts via API.
Umbrella uses AI-powered claims adjudication with photo verification and smart routing. Claims that meet your pre-set criteria are approved instantly — no manual review needed. Extend handles claims through their own team, which means less control and slower resolution for your customers.
Absolutely. Every customer record, warranty purchase, claim history, and interaction log belongs to you. Export your data at any time in standard formats. There's no lock-in and no data hostage situation — if you ever leave, your data leaves with you.
Yes — this is one of the key advantages over Extend. Umbrella supports in-store POS integration, QR-code-based registration, call center sales, and third-party marketplace channels. You can run a unified warranty program across every channel from a single dashboard.
Most brands go live in under 7 days. If you're migrating from Extend, plan for about two weeks to ensure a smooth transition. Either way, our onboarding team walks you through setup, plan configuration, and integration testing step by step.
