For operators

Run your trips on East Africa Go.

You keep the passengers and the fare. We list the trip, take the Mobile Money payment and send the ticket. Send your routes in the form and we set it up with you.

Your trips, your price

You set the fare and the pickup points. We show them to people already searching that route.

Paid before they board

MTN and Airtel settle to you. No cash to collect at the roadside.

One scan at the door

The conductor sees the passenger's name and seat. A used ticket cannot be shown twice.

Tell us your routes

We save this and reply to the phone number you give.

FAQ

Questions we hear a lot

Which currency do I pay in?

The price is in the currency of the country you leave from. A seat from Kampala is in Ugandan shillings. A seat from Kigali is in Rwandan francs. The search shows the amount before you pay.

What do I show at the border?

Your passport, as always. The ticket is for the seat. Immigration is still immigration — we do not stamp passports and we do not sell visas.

Can I cancel?

Yes, from the ticket screen, up to the free-cancel window shown on the trip. After that the seat is the operator's to keep.

Do you run the buses?

No. Licensed operators run the trips. We sell the seat and send you their pickup point. The operator's name is on the ticket.
