𝗟𝘂𝘀𝗮𝗸𝗮, 𝗭𝗮𝗺𝗯𝗶𝗮, 𝟮𝟲𝘁𝗵 𝗝𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲- Yango Ride, part of the global tech company Yango Group, implements a new feature with matching PIN-codes for passengers and partner drivers in Zambia. Before the ride begins, a unique four-digit code is generated and displayed to both the passenger and the driver in their apps. To start the trip, the passenger needs to name this PIN code to the driver — this process aims to help confirm that passengers are entering the correct vehicle. Drivers are able to turn on the pick-up code option in the safety center in Yango Pro, the feature will be automatically active for each next trip.

Recently the service integrated personalized safety checklists designed for passengers to see the status of implemented security measures during their rides. The interface automatically reminds passengers to turn on special features like sharing the route with trusted contact or updating profile information, and demonstrates the current status of the ride and its safety level.
