How we do business

Inside Coverdrone

Coverdrone is a comprehensive aviation insurance product for the New Zealand commercial and recreational drone industry.

We currently offer our products in New Zealand, UK, EU, Canada and Australia. 

Our aims

We believe in offering only the best quality product​

Coverdrone was the first Insurer to offer specialist cover to commercial drone Operators – a fully comprehensive aviation insurance product for the unmanned aircraft (drone) industry.

We offer bespoke protection, including full cover whilst in flight, aviation liability, data protection and invasion of privacy, plus many other additional features.

Since developing our commercial product extensively, we have now produced a solution for recreational users. We can cover your liability insurance, but you can also now choose to add the drone and equipment to the policy.

Our promise

You're backed up by great support when you need it

We think you should speak to the same person every time you call. So, we appoint dedicated advisors to our customers. You’ll always know who you’re dealing with and more to the point, we get to know you and your requirements in detail.

Whatever you label your drone, we cover it – and the terminology is growing. Whether that’s an Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS), Small Unmanned Aircraft (SUA), Unmanned Aircraft (UA), Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) or a Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS), we can advise what insurance cover is right for you and your business.
