Life moves with Loko. One app for the way life actually works: a ride across town, sadza delivered hot, the week’s groceries, a weekend lodge, or a car for the road to Bulawayo. No juggling five different apps. Loko brings it all together. RIDES, ON YOUR TERMS Request a ride and follow its arrival in real time. Prefer to choose the fare? Name your price and connect with a nearby driver. Clear pricing, convenient payments, and drivers from your community. FOOD THAT FINDS YOU Find favourite restaurants and neighbourhood takeaways, browse real menus, order in a few taps, and follow your delivery to the door. GROCERIES, STAYS AND CAR HIRE Restock the pantry without the queue. Find lodges and guest houses for your next stay. Hire a car for a day or a longer journey—all from the same app, with prices shown upfront. PAY THE WAY YOU LIVE Use EcoCash, Paynow, card, or cash. Loko works with the ways you already pay and shows your total before you confirm. EARN WITH LOKO Drive on your schedule. List your restaurant, shop, lodge, or vehicle and reach more customers. Loko gives local businesses practical digital tools to grow. SUPPORT THAT SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE Get help in English or Shona through WhatsApp, where conversations already happen. From the first ride to a full pantry, Loko brings more of everyday life into one place. Mauya. Tichakusvitsa. Let’s go.
