How Kango Works

Kango provides users with access to a curated selection of pre-screened drivers. The process is straightforward:

1. Schedule a ride: Users can make one-time or recurring bookings, with provisions for car seats and boosters as required. It is advisable to book at least 24 hours in advance; however, same-day requests are also accepted without a cut-off time.
2. Identify available drivers: Kango will connect with drivers in your vicinity to find the most suitable match for your request. Customers can opt to meet their driver in advance or specify preferred drivers.
3. Stay updated: Users benefit from real-time updates regarding their driver's status and can track their location through the app or contact them directly.

Getting Started

To begin using Kango, sign up and submit your ride request. Pricing varies based on the requirements of each service request.
