How it works in Islamabad

Search the road, not just the endpoints

Karwano matches on the route. A ride passing both your pickup and your drop-off counts, even when it starts and ends somewhere else entirely.

1

Set your pickup and drop-off

Type the place or drop a pin. Rides whose route passes both appear, with the driver’s badge, rating and car.

2

Book a seat from your wallet

The fare is held in escrow when the driver accepts and released after the ride. No cash, no haggling.

3

Check in and ride

Show your pickup code or QR so the right passenger gets into the right car, share the live trip with family, and rate each other after.

Beyond the city

Intercity from Islamabad

Drivers making the trip post their empty seats; you book one and the fare stays in escrow until you arrive.
