Bolt drivers do everything within their power to keep their vehicles at optimal performance and to drive safely, but sometimes accidents happen.
This is why we will be updating the coverage available on every Bolt trip with an insurance policy underwritten by AIICO Insurance from 1 September 2020. Everyday performance of the insurance contract will be managed by the insurer’s intermediary Venia Technologies ltd (“AutoGenius”).
This cover comes at no cost to users of the Bolt platform and provides support for covering unexpected incidents, medical funds and certain risks that may arise while on-trip – from the time a driver accepts your trip, through to when the trip ends.
Who is protected?
All passengers and drivers on the Bolt platform are covered by this policy while on-trip on Bolt rides.
What is covered?
