Yes, provided that ‘business use’ and ‘food delivery’ are selected as the main use for the scooter, not ‘private use.’ Food delivery insurance for riders is very important, given the number of kilometres that many riders do each day. Business use is not covered in NSW. If you are unsure which usage applies to your bike, please call us on 13RIDE (13 74 33)
No. While fast food delivery companies often require that riders’ names are listed on an insurance policy in Australia, Swann motor scooter insurance doesn’t require you to list them, as all riders of a scooter are automatically covered, provided they are legally allowed to ride a scooter. Additional excesses may apply depending on the individual rider, their age and riding/driving history.
No. Scooters that are hired aren’t covered by Swann motor scooter insurance in Australia. This includes hired scooter for tour groups, self-guided tours, or riders who hire a bike for use as a delivery rider.
