Bikmo exists to enable you to ride more
We build awesome insurance products to protect our customers for unexpected events, use technology to make taking out and managing your policy ultra-simple, and provide exceptional customer experiences through our team of bike geeks.
We’re now 5 years into our mission to enable anyone, anywhere, to protect their lifestyle, so they can spend more time enjoying it. And, become the brand that resonates with and protects the passion and drive behind the bike and adventure sports community.
At the heart of our business is a bunch of bike and adventure sports geeks who choose to spend their free time in the epic wild places our earth has to offer and we want to continue to be able to do just that.
Using business as a force for good
Our planet needs responsible people and businesses to step up and meet the challenges it faces. For us, that means focussing not just on profit but continuing to put people – customers, team and society – and the environment as high on our priority list as profit when making business decisions.
Global behaviour is also changing and consumers are choosing to engage with businesses which represent their personal values as well as meeting their requirements of a product or service. We hope what we stand for, and our actions, will resonate with the bike and adventure sports communities and enable us to become the go-to brand to protect their lifestyle.
Bikmo + BCorp
In September 2019 we certified as a BCorp! For those not in the know, it’s a rigorous process that assesses and independently verifies our activities as a business right from corporate governance through to social impact and team benefits. Check out how we scored here.
We chose to become certified because the core of our business is enabling customers to ride more, providing all the well-known benefits that cycling gives us, including better health and a cleaner environment. We also have a lot of respect for other BCorps in their way of doing business, including well-known brands such as Patagonia, Burton and Innocent.
If you’d like to learn more about what BCorp is and our process, check out the BCorp website or read Jonny’s blog post on our launch.
Bikmo goals
We set goals to help our team focus on the most important matters and we brought the same process in to deciding what our targets should be in relation to BCorp and sustainability;
