Everything you need to move, in one app
Ride sharing, ride hailing, special hire, and car rental — with an in-app wallet to pay for all of it.
Share the journey, split the cost
Drivers post trips they're already making; passengers request a seat on a route that matches. It's the heart of WamuRide — carpooling that saves money, cuts traffic, and connects people going the same way.
- Drivers create and manage scheduled trips with pickup & drop-off points
- Passengers submit trip requests and get matched to trips going their way
- Book a confirmed seat and chat with your driver in-app
- Great for daily commutes and regular routes

On-demand rides, whenever you need them
Special hire covers the trips ride sharing wasn't built for: a taxi across town, a van for moving day, a truck for cargo, or an airport transfer. Request a category, and available verified drivers respond.
- Categories include taxi, van, truck, airport pickup, movers & safari trips
- Set your pickup, drop-off, and requirements — nearby drivers get notified
- Premium drivers can accept any request; others accept within their subscribed category
- Location-based matching finds drivers close to you first

Services FAQ
What's the difference between ride sharing and special hire?
Ride sharing matches you with a driver already travelling your route on a scheduled trip, so costs are shared. Special hire is an on-demand request — a taxi, van, truck, airport transfer or movers — for when you need a dedicated vehicle right away.
How do I pay for a ride?
Top up your in-app wallet using mobile money, then pay directly from your wallet balance when you confirm a booking, rental, or special hire request.
Who can offer a car for rental?
Premium drivers can list their own cars for rental. Once listed, clients requesting a car rental can receive and compare offers from available premium drivers.
Are drivers verified?
Yes. Every driver submits a profile that's reviewed before they can accept trips, special hire jobs, or list a car for rental.
