Protection against accidents, illnesses top delivery riders’ insurance needs

Gigacover, an independent worker insurance provider, saw its users increase ninefold since 2020.

More than four in five delivery riders in Singapore saw accident coverage as the most important insurance plan, according to a survey conducted by Gigacover, a financial platform aimed for independent workers.

This was followed by three in four delivery riders seeking income protection insurance in the face of illnesses.

With a respondent pool of 1,183 riders, Gigacover said 80% were willing to spend on insurance plans, with almost 90% adding that insurance would encourage them to take more orders.

Since 2020 the company’s users, mostly independent workers, have increased ninefold, with more than 100,000 coming from Singapore and Indonesia.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
