Be first when Zuma opens in Ethiopia

We open a market when there are enough verified drivers, vendors and listings to serve it properly — not a day earlier. Waitlist demand is the biggest input into which city we open next, so adding your name genuinely moves Ethiopia up the queue.

Common questions

Is Zuma Lenders available in Ethiopia?

Not yet. Zuma has not opened Zuma Lenders in Ethiopia, and we would rather say so than take a booking we cannot fulfil. Join the waitlist and you will hear from us the day it opens.

When will Zuma launch in Ethiopia?

Ethiopia is in tier 0 of the rollout. We open a market when there are enough verified providers on the ground to serve it properly — waitlist demand is the main input into which city comes next.

What will I be able to pay with in Ethiopia?

Zuma will support Telebirr, CBE Birr and Card, priced in ETB.
