Flexible taxi insurance for FREE NOW drivers

Taxi insurance provides cover for professional drivers who carry passengers in return for payment. It's also known as Hire & Reward insurance.

There are 2 main types of taxi insurance: Private hire and public hire.

What is private hire taxi insurance?
Private hire insurance provides cover for licensed drivers who carry pre-booked passengers in return for payment. Private hire insurance is sometimes called taxi insurance, minibus insurance or PCO insurance — it’s specifically for people who drive passengers for a living.

What is public hire taxi insurance?
Public hire insurance is essential for all vehicles licensed as a Hackney Carriage. It’s also known as black cab insurance. Public hire insurance offers similar cover to private hire insurance, but the main difference is that it covers taxis that can be hailed down by customers on the street, or picked up at a taxi rank.

Depending on the level of cover, taxi insurance can insure you, your vehicle, your passengers, plus third-party people and their property.

When you take out taxi insurance with us, you're covered to drive as a private hire and public hire taxi driver.

Our all-in-one cover protects you when you carry passengers, deliver food and parcels, or use your vehicle for personal use (also called Social, Domestic & Pleasure use).

In Ireland, we only offer fully comprehensive protection. Here’s what’s included:

• Personal driving, private hire work, and food and parcel delivery.
• Costs for causing damage to other vehicles or property up to €5m.
• Your legal liability for causing death or injury to other people.
• Public liability cover up to €5m.
• Loss, damage or theft of your vehicle and its spare parts.
• Windscreen repair or replacement (excess €50).
• Audio, communication and navigation equipment (excess €400).

Yes. Our all-in-one taxi insurance covers you when carrying passengers, delivering food or parcels, and using your vehicle for personal use.

Please note: Parcel delivery is only covered by our 30-day policies. If you have an annual policy, you’re not covered to deliver parcels.

You can choose to buy taxi insurance by the month or the year:

• Our 30-day policy can be a good option if you need cover for professional and personal driving without the long-term commitment.
• Our annual policy provides cost-effective, long-term cover for drivers who work throughout the year.

The amount you'll pay depends on things like your driving history, previous claims, convictions and No Claims Discount. The fastest way to find out is to give us a call. We'll give you a quote in a few minutes.
