One of Uber’s highest priorities is the safety and security of users, and insurance is a critical part of their safety programme. All over the world, Uber’s ride-sharing option has revolutionised the way in which people move around their cities, ensuring that passengers, whether it’s in the backseat of a vehicle or on the back of a Boda-Boda bike, they can get from A to B in the most convenient, reliable, secure and affordable way possible.

 A new insurance policy which is designed to cover uberBODA passengers while on the back of a uberBODA in Kampala will be provided by UAP Old Mutual Life Assurance Uganda, the Market leader in Life Insurance in Uganda and a subsidiary of Old Mutual Africa.

In the unfortunate event of an accident while on a trip, the coverage provides passenger accident insurance, which covers:

• • Accidental Death and Permanent Total Disability: The benefit will cover up to UGX 1 800 000 per person. The next of kin or beneficiaries will also receive UGX 550 000 for funeral costs.
  • Accident Medical Expense: When injuries as a result of any Accident require treatment, the passenger will be covered up to UGX 600 000

With a new Insurance policy by Uber Uganda, the list of services with such as policy are now 2 including DialJack. As the competition continues to Fasten with Safeboda having the best credit option available. Uber boda riders will enjoy a great option at no cost, but simply the trip fares.

Good news for Uber riders means bad news for the competitors like Safeboda and Taxify who currently rule the game with their orange helmets and Green branded ones around Kampala respectively. Dial Jack which is the new kid on the block also launched recently which shows more competition to Uber that has decided to call June and the beginning of July a total free month with completely free rides.
