Vippit connects everyday travelers with people who need to send packages to and from Gambia and Senegal. Post a route, book a spot, and get your package delivered by someone who’s already making the trip — no shipping company required. How it works: * Travelers post upcoming routes connecting Gambia and Senegal with destinations across the US, Europe, and Asia — routes run both ways, sending packages to Gambia or Senegal or bringing them outward. * Customers browse available routes and book a spot for their package. * Every booking is tracked from handoff to delivery, with status updates at each step. * A secure handoff code helps confirm delivery to the right recipient — no guesswork about whether a package arrived. Trust and safety come first: * Identity verification for travelers before they can carry packages. * In-app reporting and dispute resolution if something goes wrong. * Clear traveler acknowledgements covering prohibited items, handoff responsibilities, and accurate travel plans. * Push notifications keep you updated when your package’s status changes. Vippit is a marketplace — we connect travelers and customers, but travelers handle the actual delivery themselves, the same way they’d carry a bag for a friend. Whether you’re sending a package to Gambia or Senegal, or bringing something the other way, Vippit helps you find someone already headed there. Send it home with Vippit.
