Having successfully worked together in the past, we are truly honoured to be working with foodpanda once again and to be their official insurance partner.

“Our delivery partners are the backbone of our company and play an essential role in delivering joy to Malaysians, hence why they deserve the best protection for all of their sacrifices and time. Moving forward, our efforts will continue in ensuring we are constantly introducing benefits such as the best insurance coverage so they have peace of mind when on duty,” added Kelvin.
With this additional life insurance coverage, eligible foodpanda delivery partners will now be insured for an additional RM25,000 for accidental death and RM5,000 for natural death payout.
