-
02
See the price. Pay to book.
₦10,000 within one area or to the area next door, ₦15,000 anywhere else in Aba. You pay from your wallet when you book, and the price can’t change.
-
03
We find your driver.
Your ride goes to every driver online at once, and the first to accept takes it. No one yet after 5 minutes? Wait longer, cancel for everything back, or talk to us.
-
04
Check the plate and go.
See your driver’s name, photo, car and plate before they arrive. Share your trip with family and ride.

City ride questions
The small print, in plain words
How do I know which area I'm in?
Type your address and the app places it in its area, from the roads, markets and landmarks each area covers. If it can't tell, it asks you to pick. See every area.
What if no driver accepts?
Your ride goes to every driver online at once. If nobody has taken it after 5 minutes, you choose: wait longer, cancel and get everything back, or talk to us.
Can I book a ride for later?
Yes, for later the same day. Choose your pickup time and pay when you book. We offer your ride to drivers 30 minutes before pickup, and if none takes it, you get everything back.
I left something in the car.
Message us on WhatsApp with your ride reference and we'll reach your driver.
Can I pay with cash?
Not at the moment. City rides are paid from your soSwift wallet, which you top up with Paystack. Intercity trips are paid in the app when you book.
Is my payment safe?
Yes. soSwift holds it until the ride is done, and refunds go straight back to your wallet. Card payments are handled by Paystack.
Ready when you are.
Open soSwift, see your price and book. We’ll find your driver.
