What's covered

Accidents happen. The repair bill doesn't have to.

The cover applies to the scooter you rent from us, from delivery until we collect it, while you use it as shown in the safety briefing.

  • Falls and tip-overs

    The scooter tips over on a slope, a kerb or uneven cobbles and is damaged.

  • Knocks and bumps

    Contact with a kerb, a post, a door frame or another vehicle.

  • Scratches and dents

    Damage to the frame, panels and seat from everyday knocks.

  • Broken parts

    Lights, the basket, the folding mechanism and other parts damaged in an accident.

What isn't covered

Read this part too.

The cover is for accidents. These are not accidents, or not damage to the scooter, so you pay for them in full.

  • Theft or loss

    If the scooter is stolen or lost, the cover does not apply. Always use the frame lock.

  • Lost key

    A lost key costs €20 plus the delivery of a new one.

  • Careless or intentional damage

    Damage done on purpose, or by riding against the safety briefing: through deep water, down stairs, or with more than one person.

  • Alcohol and drugs

    Damage while riding under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medicine that affects your riding.

  • People and property

    Injuries to you or anyone else, and damage to other people's property. Check your travel insurance.

With or without

What you pay if the scooter is damaged.

FAQ

Rental insurance questions.

Is the rental cover an insurance policy?

No. It is a damage waiver from Pinge: for a daily fee, we waive most of what you would otherwise pay if the scooter is accidentally damaged. No insurance company is involved, and a claim goes straight to us.

Do I have to take it?

No, it is optional. Without it you pay for any damage to the scooter during your rental, up to the cost of the repair.

How much does it cost?

€10 a day in Tallinn: €49 instead of €39 for one day, or €119 instead of €89 for three days. Outside Tallinn we confirm the price when you book.

Does it cover theft?

No. The waiver covers accidental damage only. Always lock the scooter with its frame lock when you park it, and don't leave it outside overnight.

Does it cover injuries or damage to other people's property?

No. It covers the scooter only. Check your travel or personal liability insurance before your trip; many policies cover this.

Do I still pay a deposit with cover?

Yes. The €200 deposit is the same with or without cover. With cover, at most the excess is kept from it for covered damage; the rest is refunded.

Can I add cover after I have booked?

Yes, tell us when you confirm your booking or any time up to a week before your rental starts. After that, ask us and we do what we can. Cover can't be added after the scooter has been damaged.

What if the scooter arrives damaged or breaks down by itself?

That is on us, with or without cover. Tell us straight away and we repair or replace it. Wear and tear and faults are never charged to you.
