The Zego app is a new way for on-demand delivery drivers to ensure they are insured. Zego offers on-demand insurance that can be turned on and off based on when a driver is working or not. The idea is to only pay for the insurance you need. Providing insurance for on-demand delivery drivers is a challenge for many companies and costly for the drivers who need it.
One of the best features about the Zego app is that it lets you schedule insurance coverage in advance. If you only claim certain shifts or know you always drive at a certain time of night you can set and forget your coverage. The Zego app is headquartered in London so it's unlike that American drivers can take advantage of its offerings. That being said the gig economy is flourish in the U.S. so it's only a matter of time before the Zego app, or something similar, becomes available.
