What if your next… starts now? If that next is a journey and requires you to be grounded, then we want to travel with you. Nextnow is a world class African company providing a platform for Drivers and Passengers to meet and share a pleasant travel experience, together. Drivers are in the business of providing professional driving in a vehicle with high safety standards. And it is all because of providing an excellent customer experience whilst you move from point A to point B or even point C all in a single trip. From your data enabled smart phone, you can order a ride for yourself or for someone else and track or share your ride status with your favourite contacts. You can also choose to schedule or reserve a ride for a future date for up to 30 days in advance. As you place your rider request, you will choose your pickup and destination addresses and we will calculate the Google Maps distance and present you with one of the fairest fare options in the city. As soon as you accept, we will match you to a driver nearby and send your preferred ride preference so that the driver matches your choices e.g. your favourite driver, gender-specific driver and a quiet, no music ride. Your driver arrives and before he does, you would know his name, vehicle registration number, vehicle model, his performance rating and the ETA. During your ride, you get to share your ride status with your loved ones and favourite contacts and they get to track your live status; you also get to raise any emergency situation directly with us or your emergency contact via a panic click or to call any state provided security institution. After your comfort ride, you get to rate your ride experience, tip the driver and you will have the option to pay via credits in your wallet, cash or via credit/debit card. In addition, we have incorporated security measures so that you can get around with complete peace of mind: all drivers and passengers must wear face masks, vehicles are frequently cleaned and ventilated, and an increasing number of cars are fitted with partitions
