As a taxi driver, you want reliable insurance that keeps you protected when you’re on the road. But without spending too much.

Well, you’re in the right place. We’ve designed our taxi insurance to save you time and money. You can choose between 30-day and annual policies to suit the way you work, with different levels of cover to suit your budget.

But the reasons to choose us don’t end there. Here are 7 more to help you decide if our taxi insurance is right for you.

1. Comprehensive cover

Choose our comprehensive private hire taxi insurance for complete peace of mind. You get all the benefits of our third party and public liability insurance, plus cover for you, your vehicle, and windscreen and audio equipment. Everything you need to keep you and your passengers safe.


2. Monthly and annual options

Do you prefer to pay for things monthly or upfront for the year? With us, the choice is yours. Pick between 30-day and annual policies to suit you. Plus, if you want long-term cover but would rather spread the cost, you can choose to pay in 9 monthly instalments. Simply choose the option you want when you buy online.


3. Save money when you drive well

Have you heard about Zego Sense? It’s our app-based cover for good drivers. The app uses your smartphone’s sensors to measure how you drive. You’ll get a driver score to show how you’re doing. The better you drive, the more you build your score. And that means better discounts when you renew. Simply select ‘Sense’ when you checkout online. Easy!


4. Add-ons for extra protection

Choose from a range of options to add even more protection to your insurance policy. We offer breakdown cover, replacement vehicle cover, and no claims discount (NCD) protection. And the costs are reasonable, too. It’s that extra peace of mind when you’re out on the road.


5. Flexible, all-in-one cover

As a busy taxi driver, you don’t have time to be managing different policies in different places. That’s why our private hire insurance is all-in-one. You get hire and reward (H&R) insurance for your private hire taxi work (and food and parcel delivery), plus social, domestic and pleasure (SD&P) insurance for personal driving. Everything you need in one simple policy.

And if you need to make changes or update your details, you can manage your policy online or in the Sense app. It’s like having your policy in your pocket.
