Allstate And Uber Reveal Partnership

Allstate is partnering with Uber Technologies to provide the ridesharing firm’s drivers with commercial auto coverage. Uber’s drivers in Illinois, New Jersey and Wisconsin will receive the coverage beginning March 01, a release said. Managed by Allstate Business Insurance, the policies provide coverage from when an Uber driver-partner turns on the Uber app to accept rides, heads to pick up a passenger, and throughout the entire trip. “Our business relationship with Uber expands Allstate’s leadership in personal transportation solutions into the commercial insurance arena,” said Allstate executive vice-president Tom Troy.
