Bolt is a ride-hailing app popular across Africa and Europe, offering cars, cheaper economy rides and, in some cities, bikes and scooters. Upfront pricing, cash or card payment and a driver-friendly commission model made it a strong rival to other ride apps in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and South Africa. The Android app handles booking, live tracking and trip sharing in a clean, data-light interface.
Key features
- Book rides in seconds with upfront pricing
- Pay by cash, card or mobile money
