Products Module

The Products module in Umbrella is where your product catalog is managed and enriched with warranty data. This is where you link protection plans to individual SKUs, review plan performance at the product level, and access analytics that help optimize your attach rates, revenue, and profitability.

Products are automatically synced from your e-commerce platform (e.g. Shopify), including essential data like vendor, tags, and product type. This lets you build logic-based rules for plan eligibility, while maintaining control over the final offer per SKU.

Accessing Products

  • From the Umbrella sidebar, go to Products
  • You'll see a searchable, filterable list of synced products from your store. Products are automatically updated abd kept in sync with your store.
  • Click any product to view its full profile, which includes:
    • Product Info
    • Warranties
    • Analytics

Product Info Tab

The Product Info tab displays key product data, synced from your store:

  • Vendor
    The supplier or brand associated with the product (used for plan eligibility rules)
  • Product Type
    The category or type (e.g. “Mountain Bike”, “Television”)
  • Description
    Auto-imported from your store (read-only for reference)
  • Tags
    Shopify tags or internal metadata used for plan filtering
  • Product Images
    Shown for internal clarity — images are not editable from Umbrella

You cannot edit product information in Umbrella. This data is for reference only and remains managed by your primary e-commerce platform (e.g. Shopify, BigCommerce, etc.).

Warranties Tab

The Warranties tab allows you to assign a protection plan to the product from a list of eligible plans.

How It Works:

  • If a product matches multiple plans (via collection, vendor, product type, or tag), they’ll all appear here.
  • You can select one active plan per product.
  • This is the plan that will be shown to customers on the storefront (PDP, cart, checkout, etc.).

Plan Details Shown:

  • Plan Name
  • Term Options (1 year, 2 year, etc.)
  • Pricing per term

Once you select the plan and click Update, it becomes the live plan offered for that product.

⚠️ If no plan is selected, the newest protection plan that applies will be shown on the storefront — even if the product qualifies for multiple plans.

Analytics Tab

The Analytics tab shows plan performance and claim activity for this specific product — giving you a SKU-level view of how protection offers are performing.

Metrics Available:

  • Attachment Rate
    Percentage of total units sold that included a protection plan.
  • Units Sold
    Total number of purchases for this product (regardless of plan).
  • Warranty Revenue
    Gross revenue earned from protection plans sold on this product.
  • Claims Approved
    Number of approved claims tied to this product’s protection policies.
  • Claim Cost
    Total dollar amount paid out in approved claims.
  • Profit
    Revenue from expired or unused warranties minus total claim cost.

Claims Table

At the bottom of the Analytics tab, you’ll see a list of individual claims tied to this product, including:

  • Customer name and email
  • Claim status (Pending, Approved, Denied)
  • Plan and term used
  • Order and claim dates
  • Value of the claim
  • Quick access to review/resolve the claim

This gives you end-to-end visibility from protection sale to final resolution at the individual product level.

Product Sync Behavior

Umbrella automatically keeps your product catalog in sync with your e-commerce store. Any changes to:

  • Product title
  • Tags
  • Collections
  • Vendor
  • Product type

…will automatically be reflected inside the Products module. This ensures warranty eligibility rules remain up to date.

Best Practices

  • Use tags, vendors, and collections to define plan rules — then, if necessary, fine-tune at the product level via the Warranties tab.
  • Monitor attachment and claim rates in the Analytics tab to adjust pricing and resolution logic per product.
  • Use high-performing products as models for new plan launches.

What is Umbrella and how does it work with Shopify?
Umbrella is a warranty management platform built specifically for Shopify stores. It lets merchants offer, sell, and manage extended warranties, protection plans, and OEM warranties directly within their storefront. Once installed, Umbrella automatically integrates with your product pages, cart, and checkout, allowing customers to add protection plans in one click. All warranty data, claims, and customer communications stay inside your Shopify admin.
Can I sell extended warranties directly to customers using Umbrella?
Yes. Umbrella allows you to create and sell extended warranty plans under your own brand, keeping 100% of the profit. Unlike third-party providers, Umbrella lets merchants set their own pricing, coverage terms, and claim rules. You can offer multi-year protection plans as a product upsell on the product page, in the cart, or after checkout; all tracked and managed inside your store.
What’s the difference between Umbrella and other warranty providers like Extend or Mulberry?
Umbrella is a self-managed warranty platform, not a reseller. Competing providers like Extend, Mulberry, or Clyde act as intermediaries that force you to sell warranties under their brand name, take a share of the revenue, and force your customers to submit claims through them. Umbrella lets you own the customer relationship, pricing, and brand experience. There are no third-party portals or customer redirects - everything happens within your Shopify store.
Does Umbrella handle warranty claims automatically?
Yes. Umbrella includes a native, embedded claim form that verifies warranty eligibility, processes claims, and can trigger resolution workflows automatically. Merchants can define repair, replacement, or refund outcomes, while customers can track their claim status directly through your storefront. The entire process is branded, transparent, and requires no external login or separate dashboard.
Can Umbrella manage OEM or manufacturer warranties?
Absolutely. Umbrella supports automatic and manual OEM warranty registration by linking order data, serial numbers, and product details. This enables manufacturers and brands to track warranty eligibility for every unit sold - whether the purchase was direct or through a third-party retailer. OEM registrations can also be used to bring customers back to your own site for warranty activation and remarketing.
How do I set up Umbrella in my Shopify store?
Setup takes only a few minutes. Install Umbrella from the Shopify App Store, connect your store, and choose whether to sell extended or OEM warranties. Then, create your protection plans, set pricing, and customize the widget design. Once enabled, Umbrella automatically adds the warranty selector to your product and cart pages. No custom coding is required.
How much does Umbrella cost and what plans are available?
Umbrella offers flexible pricing based on your store’s sales volume and feature needs. Plans include a free tier for testing, plus advanced tiers for automated claims, OEM registration, AI fraud detection, and compliance coverage. Pricing scales with your attach rate, ensuring merchants of any size can start offering warranties profitably.
