Electric Bike Company sales and customer service director Blake Garcia said: “We are excited to be partnering with Oyster to give our customers ‘Peace of Mind’ when riding their bikes and making sure that if anything happens to them or their bike, that they have full coverage to support them.” 

Last month, Oyster established a partnership with Velotric, another electric bike company, to provide insurance at the point of purchase.  

In February, Oyster launched its business insurance solution, which consolidates various types of coverage into a single platform for businesses.  

The available coverage includes business owners insurance, general liability insurance, workers’ compensation insurance, umbrella insurance for extra protection and specialised coverage tailored to unique client operations.
