What is PlusBoda?

PlusBoda is a Ugandan app that puts rides, food, shops and a marketplace in one place. You book a boda, tuk-tuk, car or a seat in a taxi with the fare on screen before you go, and pay your rider in cash at the end. Kitchens and shops near you deliver with PlusBoda riders, and you can sell anything in a minute.

One app for getting around and getting things

Rides: set where you're going and PlusBoda shows each option — boda, tuk-tuk, car, or a seat in a taxi — with its fare and when you'll arrive, before you book. When a rider accepts you see their name, face and plate, and you follow them on the map to your pickup.

Eats and Shops: order from kitchens, pharmacies, groceries, electronics and hardware shops near you, and a PlusBoda rider brings it to your door. You pay when it arrives. Marketplace: snap a photo of what you're selling and the app writes the listing and suggests a price; buyers message you in the app.

For schools, PlusBoda runs fees, the school's team and the school run from one dashboard, and parents follow the school van live with pickup and drop-off alerts.

Made in Uganda

PlusBoda is built by a Ugandan team, with fares in shillings and the app in English, Luganda, Swahili and Acholi. PlusBoda works everywhere in Uganda and is free for everyone: book a ride wherever riders are online near you, and Eats, Shops and the marketplace work across the country.

Drivers keep 100% of every fare, and business accounts are free. Every ride, meal and order earns PlusBoda Points, which you can use to take up to half off a ride.
