Gig workers insurance

Point Pickup is launching a gig economy app that rewards workers for making deliveries through the platform.

The California startup will use its new funding to continue extending benefits to gig workers across multiple apps and platforms.

The company this week announced a $7.5 million funding round to build out its in-house tech and further expand its coverage.

A Miami-based insurance startup is offering gig workers the opportunity to purchase disability insurance that would protect them in case of income disruptions.
