Risk Transfer at Carrier Handover

Share 𝕏 Share in Share

Why it matters

This clause means that if your Ledger hardware wallet goes missing or is damaged during delivery, you may have no direct financial recourse against Ledger — you would need to pursue the carrier or your own insurance.

Consumer impact

Ledger's sales terms transfer risk of loss or damage to the buyer the moment the device is handed to the shipping carrier, meaning consumers bear responsibility for lost or damaged shipments before they receive their product. The terms also broadly exclude Ledger's liability for any cryptocurrency losses, wallet compromise, or indirect damages resulting from use of the device, which is significant given the high-value assets these wallets protect. You can document your delivery condition with photographs immediately upon receipt and retain all packaging to support any warranty or return claim through Ledger's support portal.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Dispute a Fee
    Within 30 days
    If your Ledger device is lost or damaged in transit, immediately contact Ledger support via their help portal, provide your order number and shipping documentation, and request a replacement or refund citing your consumer rights under EU law.

Applicable agencies
