Zego Spurs the Scooter Revolution in Spain
London‑based insurtech Zego has just rolled out its flexible coverage for bike‑ride couriers and private‑hire fleets to the vibrant streets of Madrid, carving out another win in its quest to shake up European insurance one waggle at a time.
What’s Zego Telling Us?
- Founded in 2016, Zego has already become the go‑to driver for over a third of the UK’s scooter delivery peeps.
- Unlike the stiff, yearly policies of traditional insurers, Zego lets you pay only for the hours you drive. It’s the equivalent of a “pay‑as‑you‑go” Uber plan, but for insurance.
- Buy a plan on their website or mobile app and get a slick, cost‑effective model that feels more like a nicotine‑free vape than a bomb‑shell contract.
Why Spain?
Spain’s buzzing new‑mobility scene (electric scooters, shared rides, mega‑growth in on‑demand services) makes it the perfect playground for Zego’s next chapter.
General Manager Gerardo Redondo assures us that the company is not just about insurance; it’s about making these innovative modes of transport safe and legal—so they’re available to as many people as possible.
Exclusive Deal Highlights
Last month, Zego struck a game‑changing partnership with La Parisienne Assurances, letting them serve flexible delivery, fleet, and private‑hire policies across a wider slice of Western Europe.
CEO’s Takeaway
Sten Saar sums it up: “The European market craves novelty. Modern work and new vehicle models demand flexibility. With this Madrid launch, we’re slashing costs and bumping up value for every Spanish drone rider and gig‑driver.” He also hints that this is just the tip of their continental iceberg.
