Uber drivers require private hire insurance which provides cover for professional drivers who carry pre-booked passengers or deliveries of food and parcels in return for payment. This is also known as Hire & Reward insurance.
Bookings are typically made by phone, text, or mobile app and drivers may work with local or national taxi companies, or rideshare apps like Uber, Ola and Bolt. Depending on the level of cover purchased, Private Hire insurance can insure the driver, their vehicle, their passengers, and third-party persons and property.
