What else people use here

We would rather name the alternatives than pretend there aren't any.

  • M-Pesa Super App · fintech

    Zuma interoperates with M-Pesa rather than competing on rails, and owns fulfilment M-Pesa brokers out.

  • Bolt · mobility

    Zuma Ride is one of 30+ modules sharing a wallet, a rating and a credit score.

Be first when Zuma opens in Kenya

We open a market when there are enough verified drivers, vendors and listings to serve it properly — not a day earlier. Waitlist demand is the biggest input into which city we open next, so adding your name genuinely moves Kenya up the queue.

One email when we launch. No marketing list, no sharing your number.

Common questions

Is Zuma Auctions available in Kenya?

Not yet. Zuma has not opened Zuma Auctions in Kenya, and we would rather say so than take a booking we cannot fulfil. Join the waitlist and you will hear from us the day it opens.

When will Zuma launch in Kenya?

Kenya is in tier 0 of the rollout. We open a market when there are enough verified providers on the ground to serve it properly — waitlist demand is the main input into which city comes next.

What will I be able to pay with in Kenya?

Zuma will support M-Pesa, Airtel Money, Card and Bank transfer, priced in KES.
