Problem
Georgetown, Guyana lacks a reliable, transparent ride-hailing option, leaving residents and visitors to contend with haggling over fares, unpredictable pricing, and an aging taxi fleet that contributes to diesel emissions and noise pollution. The absence of app-based booking, digital payments, and standardized safety protocols creates friction and safety concerns for riders.
Solution
GuyWay provides an all-electric ride-hailing network in Georgetown with a fully owned Tesla fleet rented to independent driver-partners. Riders book through the GuyWay app, see fixed upfront fares before confirming, and pay digitally via card, MMG, Apple Pay, or Google Pay—with no surge pricing or cash handling. Every driver completes in-person vetting in Georgetown, including licence and police-clearance checks, insurer approval, and a safety induction. Trips are GPS-tracked with live trip sharing and 24/7 human support, while the company publishes annual impact reports documenting avoided CO₂ based on real kilometres driven.
Target Audience
Primary customers are Georgetown residents and visitors needing reliable urban transport, plus businesses—including offshore service companies, EPC contractors, diplomatic missions, and professional firms—that require corporate ride accounts with consolidated billing and duty-of-care features.
