What is pay-as-you-go scooter and motorbike delivery insurance?
If you’re a scooter, moped or motorbike delivery rider, our pay-as-you-go hire and reward (H&R) delivery insurance can help you save money on the cost of your cover.
This cover is charged by the minute (with a minimum of 1 hour’s cover), and lets you pause your insurance when you’re not working. It’s a more flexible way to get insured, so it’s great for part-time or seasonal delivery riders.

What insurance does a scooter, moped or motorbike delivery ritder need?
To use your scooter, moped, motorbike or e-scooter for delivery or courier work, you must have personal (SD&P) insurance and hire and reward insurance.
Hire and reward insurance is a type of commercial vehicle insurance that allows you to carry food or parcels in return for payment. Whether you have existing personal insurance or not, we can get you covered with the right scooter policy.

What's the difference between moped and scooter insurance?
Cost
The main difference between moped and scooter insurance is the cost. Because mopeds have a smaller engine size and slower top speed than scooters, they’re usually considered less risky. The lower the risk, the lower the insurance cost.
Mopeds have an engine size of up to 50cc, and can reach top speeds of around 28mph.
Scooters tend to be more powerful, with the largest engine sizes ranging all the way up to 750cc. So they can go much faster.Policy type
Another thing that can affect the cost is the type of insurance policy you choose.
Third party, fire and theft policies tend to be cheaper as the cover is quite limited — if you’re involved in a collision, only third party drivers are covered for accidental damage or personal injury. Whereas a fully comprehensive policy will cover you and other drivers, and can even include things like breakdown cover.
So before you choose moped or scooter insurance, it’s best to check what’s included in your cover.
Here’s what you need to take out scooter and motorbike insurance with us

In my opinion, Zego is one of the best, easy and most suitable insurers on the market. If you're looking for insurance for your scooter, car or any other vehicle Zego is the right choice.
It's day one and I’m impressed. Spoke with Zego twice today to insure my scooter. Lovely customer service, the staff are friendly and happy to help. I also got the best price I've ever had. Saving £400 this year on insurance. Hope to do business with Zego for a long time!
I would definitely recommend Zego. I was really pleased with the price, by far the cheapest. The customer service was brilliant.
