IMPORTANT NOTE: Partner Protection Insurance will be removed in Ireland from the 1st of January 2023. Eligible drivers who make a claim for the period within 2022, will still be covered, even if they submit their claim after December 31st 2022.
Partner Protection: You’re independent, but you’re not on your own
Life-changing events like injury, sickness, or having a baby don’t have to come with all the additional financial stress.
If you’re an eligible independent driver or delivery partner who uses an Uber App in some parts of Europe, from June 1st you will have insurance from the Partner Protection insurance to help protect you and your loved ones from the financial cost of accidents or life events. This insurance is provided at no cost to you.
