Launching soon · Harare & Victoria Falls

Zimbabwe's trusted
car-sharing marketplace.

Rent a car from a local owner: a safari-ready 4x4 at Vic Falls or an everyday ride in Harare. Or list yours and let it earn. Before launch, every owner is verified and every car has its own tracker.

How Famba works

A marketplace between people, with ID checks, deposits and a photographed handover in the middle.

01

Find or list

Renters search by area, address or dates. Owners apply, get verified, and set their own price and calendar. The platform shows example listings until launch.

02

Book & pay securely

EcoCash, card or USD once payments go live. Deposits are refundable, and hosts approve or auto-accept.

03

Handover & go

A photographed, e-signed condition report protects both sides at pick-up and return. Then the road is yours.

For renters

A better way to hire a car

Cheaper than the counter, more choice than any fleet, and a real person behind every car.

Rent from real people

  • Search by area or address: Harare hatchbacks from ~$30/day, Vic Falls 4x4s from ~$105 (the counter charges $72–159)
  • Instant book or request, with real availability: two people can never hold the same car on the same dates
  • A refundable deposit and a photographed handover on every trip
  • Pay how Zimbabwe pays: EcoCash, card or USD; book from abroad for family
  • Free cancellation before pick-up

Your car could pay for itself

  • Well-utilised cars could earn up to $300–500/month (est.) in USD, depending on your car, city and bookings
  • Your own policy usually doesn’t cover rentals, and Famba does not insure cars. Before yours lists, we agree in writing what protects it
  • Renters are ID- and licence-verified, and a deposit is held on every trip
  • You set the price and the calendar, and block any dates
  • Founding hosts: 0% commission for 60 days + priority placement

Safety first, for both sides

The trust stack

"What if it doesn't come back?" is the first question every owner asks. This is the answer.

Straight answers on coverFamba does not insure trips. Some cars come from car-hire businesses whose own policy covers rentals. For the rest, the deposit is the protection, and the owner agrees to that in writing before the car lists.
Owner-fitted GPS trackerA working tracker is a listing requirement, checked before a car's first booking.
Two-way verificationAt launch, renters verify ID + licence and owners verify ID + registration + road-legal papers.
Digital handoverTimestamped photos and an e-signed condition report at pick-up and return.
Held depositsA refundable USD deposit on every trip once payments go live, released after a clean return.
Real reviews onlyA review can only come from a renter who completed a trip in that car.
