Tap to ride kombis in seconds, not drama.
ZimTap is a tap-and-go payment system for kombis and buses. Passengers tap once. Fares auto-deduct. Owners see every dollar that moves — no more "hapana shanduko".
Three taps to change how Zimbabwe moves.
ZimTap plugs straight into the existing kombi ecosystem. No heavy infrastructure, no complicated apps — just cards, Android devices, and a backend that keeps every trip honest.
Load your ZimTap card
Commuters buy a ZimTap card at the rank and load value via EcoCash, bank transfer, or cash at partner kiosks.
Tap when you board
The conductor or driver uses an Android validator. One tap confirms the trip, deducts the fare, and stores the record — even when the network is down.
Every dollar accounted for
At the end of the day, the device syncs to the cloud. Owners see total trips, peak times, and clean revenue figures in a simple dashboard.
Built for passengers — and the people who run the routes.
No more "change yandopiwa mangwana".
ZimTap gives passengers predictable fares, faster boarding, and less stress during peak hours. One card works across multiple routes and operators, with clear balance and receipts.
- Fast boarding at busy ranks
- Exact fares, no change drama
- Safer than carrying cash
Every trip logged. Every dollar visible.
ZimTap tracks trips in real time, cutting leakage and under-reporting. Owners get daily summaries, route analytics, and a clear view of which vehicles are making money.
- 10–30% revenue recovery from reduced leakage
- Simple Android validator devices
- Nightly settlements into wallet or bank
We're looking for operators, payment partners & regulators.
ZimTap works best as an ecosystem play: card manufacturers, mobile money providers, kombi associations and city authorities all win when the transport economy becomes transparent and digital.
