How it works

Rideshare insurance

In the event that an injury occurs on an uberX trip anywhere in New Zealand, coverage is provided by the Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC). ACC covers treatment for damages incurred by someone injured in an accident in New Zealand, regardless of fault. This coverage applies to uberX trips in the same manner as an accident or injury sustained in another form of transportation.

Requirements

All cars driven by New Zealand UberX ridesharing driver-partners must be:

  • road registered in New Zealand, and
  • insured for a minimum of third party property damage, with the driver-partner as policyholder or named insured driver.

Please note that third party property damage won't cover every eventuality and might not be suitable for everyone's personal circumstances. You should speak to your insurer, broker, advisor, or agent to determine the appropriate insurance coverage for you, including whether you require commercial insurance cover.

The information provided on this web page does not apply to non-ridesharing driver-partners, e.g. New Zealand Uber Eats or others. It is intended for informational purposes and may not be applicable in your country, region, or city. It is subject to change and may be updated without notice.
