How it works

Three steps to a smarter ride

1
Post or find a route

Drivers share where they're heading. Riders search routes going their way.

2
Get matched instantly

Our smart engine pairs you with verified people on the same path.

3
Ride and split the cost

Travel together, split fuel and tolls fairly β€” all handled in the app.

Why Frim Rides

Built for the Kenyan Commuter

Safety, reliability, and savings that actually feel meaningful β€” all in one app.

Verified Drivers & Riders

Every user is ID-verified. Car owners undergo a vehicle inspection. Your safety is non-negotiable.

M-Pesa & Card Payments

Pay via M-Pesa, Visa, or Mastercard. No cash exchanges β€” split costs are calculated automatically.

Live GPS Tracking

Share your live trip with a trusted contact. Real-time tracking gives you and your loved ones peace of mind.

Recurring Ride Matching

Commute the same route daily? Set it once and get matched with the same trusted riders every morning.

Schedule in Advance

Book the night before. Your spot is reserved, your driver confirmed β€” no last-minute scrambles.

Smart Route Matching

Our algorithm finds riders along your exact path β€” minimal detours, maximum efficiency for everyone on board.

For car owners

Already driving that route? Fill the empty seats and let your passengers help cover fuel, tolls and parking. It's that simple.

  • Set your route, time and seats
  • Pick who rides with you
  • Get paid automatically after each trip
For riders

Skip the cost of taxis and the wait at bus stops. Hop in with someone already going your way β€” for a fraction of the price.
