Kenya moves.
HOOP moves with it.
Point-to-point carpooling — a shared seat, a direct trip, a crew pass or an autonomous shuttle. Every fare is the matatu fare plus 30%, a fraction of a private hail.
Pick both ends of the trip to see fares — type a town, county or landmark.
Fares stay the same all day — peak traffic only changes the ETA.
Enter your pickup and drop-off — or tap the map — to see live estimates for all four products.

Illustrative rider and driver examples — not customer records. Earnings depend on the trips a driver actually completes.
“I used to leave home at 5:20 for two matatu stages. Now a verified driver picks me on the way past — I sleep thirty minutes more and still reach Westlands before the ward round.”
