Boda, bajaji or taxi. You see the fare before you book.

Teleza puts a driver near you on a map, prices the trip against the LATRA rates before you accept it, and lets you pay in cash when you arrive. No account to open beyond a Google or Apple sign-in.

Riding

Four taps from where you are to where you are going.

The whole trip happens on one screen. You never have to hunt for a menu, and nothing is settled until you have seen the price.

Set your pickup

The map opens on your location. Drag the pin if the road you want is a few metres away.

Choose the class

Boda, bajaji or taxi, each with its own fare for that exact route. Pick the one that suits the trip.

Match with a driver

The request goes to drivers near you. You get their name, their vehicle and a PIN, and you watch them approach.

Check the PIN, then ride

Read the PIN to your driver before you get in. Pay the agreed fare in cash at the end and keep the receipt.

Fares

The price you are shown is the price you pay.

Teleza does not quote a range and settle up afterwards. The fare is calculated for your route, shown before you book, and does not move while you travel.

Set by the regulator Every fare is built from the base, per-kilometre and per-minute rates gazetted by LATRA for that class of vehicle, and is held inside that band.

The same at 3am There is no surge multiplier in Teleza. The same route at rush hour and at midnight is priced by the same formula.

Rounded for cash Every fare is rounded to a figure that can be handed over in cash without either of you hunting for change, and never lands below the gazetted minimum.

Paid to the driver You pay in cash at the end of the trip. Teleza takes nothing out of it, and the app issues a receipt you can keep.

Driving

Keep the whole fare. Pay for access, not per trip.

Teleza takes no commission. What the rider hands you is what you earned. Instead of a cut of every trip, you buy access to the app for a day, a week or a month.

Commission on every completed trip, whatever the fare and however many you do that day.

Day, week
or month

Pick the access plan that matches how you work and pay it by mobile money from inside the app.

Online only

Your location is shared while you are online and taking requests, and stops the moment you go offline.

Safety and trust

Enough checks to be safe, no more data than that needs.

Riders and drivers see each other's name, phone number and position for the length of the trip, and nothing beyond it.

A PIN for every trip

The app shows you a code while your driver is on the way. Read it out before you get in and you know you are in the right vehicle.

Drivers are approved first

A driver uploads a licence, vehicle registration, insurance and a photograph, and cannot go online until those are accepted.

Location that switches off

Riders are located when they set a pickup, not between trips. Drivers are tracked only while online, with a notification the whole time.

Help inside the app

Call or message support from the menu, and reach the emergency number shown there — or dial 112 — without leaving the trip.

Your data

We never sell it. There is no advertising in Teleza.

Teleza collects what a trip actually requires — who you are, where you are going, and how you and your driver reach each other. Every piece of it is written out in full, with how long it is kept and who else sees it.
