Passenger quick start (detailed)

onboarding · passenger

A longer walkthrough of the passenger journey on WYHOP — from first OTP to boarding.

Accounts & identity

We identify passengers primarily by mobile number + OTP. Keep the same number you will use for M-Pesa when possible so receipts and support match.

Choosing the right trip

Compare SACCO, departure time, vehicle type, and fare. Peak holidays (Easter, Christmas, election periods) sell out early — book ahead for Nairobi–Mombasa and other trunk routes.

Seat maps

Grey seats are taken. Selected seats are held briefly while you pay; abandoning checkout releases them for others.

Boarding etiquette

Arrive early, queue at the SACCO desk, and follow conductor instructions. Digital tickets do not replace SACCO gate checks.
