    Zuma’s modules are first-party and fulfilled, not third-party mini-apps.

Be first when Zuma opens in South Africa

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 South Africa up the queue.

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

Common questions

Is Zuma Play available in South Africa?

Not yet. Zuma has not opened Zuma Play in South Africa, 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 South Africa?

South Africa 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 South Africa?

Zuma will support VodaPay, MTN MoMo, Card, EFT and SnapScan, priced in ZAR.
