Karwano Go · Launching city by city
A ride right now, at a fare you agree on.
Karwano Go is on-demand ride-hailing inside the Karwano app. Pick a bike, a rickshaw or a car, offer your fare, and nearby verified drivers accept it or send their own price. No surge. No haggling at the kerb.
- No surge pricing
- Pay by wallet or cash
- English and Urdu
Go appears inside the Karwano app the day your city is switched on. Riders need no second download.
What it is
Ride-hailing that starts with your price
Most ride apps show you a fare and you take it or leave it. On Karwano Go you say what you want to pay, and drivers who are actually nearby decide whether it works for them.
It lives in the same Karwano app as carpooling, with the same account and the same wallet. Carpooling shares a journey that is happening anyway. Go brings a ride to you when you need one. Between them they cover the commute and everything else.

The fare
A marketplace, not a meter
You know the price before a driver is on the way, because you were part of setting it.
- 1
Karwano suggests a fair fare
Worked out from the distance, the time and the ride type you chose, with a minimum fare for short hops.
- 2
You make the offer
Go lower or higher inside a fair range around the suggestion. The range is there so nobody is offered a fare that could not cover the trip.
- 3
Drivers accept or counter
A driver takes your price or sends a different one. Nobody answering? Raise your offer and the request goes out again.
- 4
The agreed fare is the fare
No surge, no meter running in traffic. Karwano’s commission comes from the driver’s side, never on top of what you agreed.
Pay from your wallet
The fare is held from the moment you request and released to the driver only when the trip completes.
Or pay cash
Hand the agreed fare to the driver at the end. Nothing is held and no code is needed.
Why riders choose Go
Small things that make the ride easier
See drivers before you book
Nearby drivers appear on the map as bikes, rickshaws and cars while you plan, so you know a ride is close before you ask for one.
Raise your offer mid-search
No takers yet? Raise the fare without starting again. Drivers are asked again.
Auto-accept when you are in a hurry
Switch it on and the first driver who takes your price gets the trip.
One wallet for both services
The wallet you top up for carpool seats pays for Go rides too.
Every trip on record
Go rides sit in your history beside carpool bookings, each with a receipt and a reference.
Safety
Know your driver. Follow your ride.
The same verified community as carpooling, on a ride that comes to you.
Verified before the first trip
CNIC, driving licence, vehicle registration and a live selfie, reviewed by the Karwano team. Nobody goes online until they are approved.
You know who is coming
Name, rating, vehicle and number plate are on your screen before the car arrives. Check the plate, then get in.
Live route, start to finish
The driver coming along the road to you, then the route to your drop-off, with a live ETA the whole way.
A pickup code on wallet trips
The driver cannot start a wallet trip without the code on your screen, so your money moves only when you are in the car.
Ratings on both sides
You rate the driver and the driver rates you. A rating stays hidden until the other side has rated too, so each one is honest.
Something wrong? Report it
Report a problem with a trip for up to 14 days afterwards. It reaches the same support team that looks after carpooling.

Karwano Go is switched on city by city. It appears inside the Karwano app you already have on the day your city goes live, so riders need no second download. Carpooling is already live across Pakistan. The Karwano Go page on this site lists the cities where Go is live.
Karwano suggests a fair fare for the distance, the time and the vehicle type. You offer the price you want to pay inside a fair range, in PKR 10 steps or by typing it. Nearby verified drivers accept it or send a counter-offer with a countdown, and you accept, counter or decline. Turn on auto-accept and the first driver who takes your price gets the trip.
No. There is no surge pricing on Karwano Go. The fare you and the driver agree before the trip is the fare you pay, and Karwano’s commission comes from the driver’s side, not on top of your fare.
Yes. Pay in cash at the end of the trip, or from your Karwano wallet. Wallet trips hold the fare in escrow from the moment you request and release it to the driver only when the trip completes.
On wallet-paid trips the app shows you a code once a driver is on the way. You tell it to the driver when you are in the car; the driver cannot start the trip without it. It makes sure the money moves only when the ride actually begins. Cash trips do not use a code.
Bikes, rickshaws, economy cars, premium cars and larger family vehicles, as offered in your city. The types available where you are, each with its own fair-fare range, are shown in the app.
Every Karwano Go driver registers in the Karwano Pilot app and submits a CNIC, a driving licence, the vehicle registration and a live selfie, which the Karwano team reviews before the driver can go online. Before you get in you see the driver’s name, rating, vehicle and number plate.
Yes, at any time before the trip starts. If the fare was held from your wallet it is released back to you in full. No cancellation fee is currently charged.
Carpooling is a seat in a car that is already making the journey: you book ahead, share the cost with others and pay per seat. Karwano Go is a whole ride that comes to you on demand, at a fare you and the driver agree. Both use the same Karwano account and the same wallet.
Yes. Riders use the Karwano app; drivers use Karwano Pilot, the driver app for Karwano Go. Drivers register their vehicle, pass CNIC, licence and vehicle verification, and go online whenever they want to take trips.
Yes. One Karwano account and one wallet for riders. A wallet top-up works for carpool bookings and Go rides alike, and your ratings travel with you.
