You can pay your trips… using the money from your Yugo Wallet; by Credit Card; or in Cash, depositing the money directly into your driver’s hands. You may also have the Business Wallet option if your company has listed you as a beneficiary.
What if my driver insists that I must pay Cash?
This is against the rules! With Yugo, you have absolute freedom to choose the most convenient payment method for your trip. And if your driver insists, please do let us know by giving us feedback when rating him/her at the end of your trip. Let’s face it! In this day and age, Cashless payment is the way to go. No one shall be allowed to say otherwise
