“Today I booked my first ride on BYKEA from my office at Jail Road to the railway station, fare estimate was Rs 75 to 90. My other options are Daewoo bus cost Rs 20 but you have to wait for at least 30 minutes to over an hour and second option was rickshaw at Rs 150 to 180. Bottomline, it suited me well, will surely use in the future.”​
