What is Bolt Food insurance, and do I need it?

Signed up to deliver for Bolt Food? Before you accept your first order, there's one thing you need to have in place: the right insurance.

Standard car or bike insurance does not cover you for delivery work. As soon as you're earning money from your vehicle, you're legally required to have hire and reward insurance. Without it, you're uninsured on the road, and that can mean fines, points on your licence, and even your vehicle being seized.

Bolt Food also requires proof of valid hire and reward insurance before you can complete your sign-up and go live on the platform. It's a legal requirement, not just a box-ticking exercise.

INSHUR's food delivery insurance is designed for drivers and riders exactly like you, quick to set up, easy to manage, and flexible enough to fit around the way you work.
