Try another date, or be the first to drive it.
Fares reflect the car: Lite runs cheaper, Premium about 30% more.
Every driver is ID-verified with a licensed vehicle.
Optional. A standard R30 fee applies only if the driver approves your request. Available to verified passengers.
Kopana Safety and your trusted contacts have your live location.
Paid at boarding. Confirming just closes off the trip.
Parcels are matched to trips you have posted. Anything needing a bakkie is flagged.
Booking a seat reserves it and costs nothing. You pay as you board, by scanning your driver’s Kopana code — the fare plus a 10% booking fee.
Payments are processed securely by Paystack.
Odd-sized loads are quoted by the driver once they see your description.
Kopana also photographs your parcel at pickup and drop-off, and tracks it live along the route.
We'll match your parcel as soon as a driver posts this route.
Premium cars charge more, so their drivers recover more.
You pay when the drop-off photo is confirmed by your recipient.
