This initiative, in collaboration with Glico Life Insurance, offers insurance coverage for all passengers in a car and partners’ drivers during the rides ordered via the Yango app across the country.

This programme aims to enhance the safety and security of all those involved in rides ordered via Yango at no additional cost.

The launch marks the next step in Yango’s ongoing efforts to introduce more safety features across its services, including the recently implemented insurance coverage for Yango Delivery partners’ couriers.

The trip insurance programme provides coverage for unforeseen incidents during the service’s rides, including accidental medical expenses, total permanent disability, bodily injury, or death.

"As a company, Yango cares about the safety and well-being of both the partners’ drivers and passengers. We ensure that everyone using our platform is well informed about the advanced safety features through regular safety training, in-app communication, and other activities.

Partnering with Glico Life Insurance allows us to offer free trip insurance that gives everyone peace of mind when using our service,"  Tom Ofonime, Country Manager of Yango Ride in Ghana said.

This partnership between Yango and Glico Life Insurance is a meaningful contribution to enhancing safety measures in the ride-hailing industry.

Dedication

Both companies are dedicated to ensuring that everyone who uses the Yango platform can do so with confidence and reassurance.

Speaking at the launch event, Managing Director of Glico Life Insurance, Maame Dufie Achampong-Kyei emphasised the need for such collaborations and encouraged all road users and Ghanaians to stay safe and ensure they have insurance coverage ahead of the upcoming festive season and beyond.

‘’This partnership marks another step forward in realising our mission of bringing insurance to the doorstep of every Ghanaian household. We are thrilled to partner with Yango to provide trip insurance coverage for both drivers and passengers using their platform.

At GLICO, we are committed to providing peace of mind and security for all parties involved in rides. Together, we are contributing to improved road safety," she added.
