"Buupass has been very convenient for me -- I can book a bus from anywhere at any time. I can also book for someone in Homa Bay when I am in Nairobi. 

"It also enables to pick a seat of my choice online. Despite the convenience, it is also very affordable with no extra charges. I have used Buupass since it was introduced almost a year now and I have also introduced it to others.

"I used to face some challenges booking manually and one of the major challenges is that I had to travel to the booking station for me to book a bus, which was a bit expensive. Sometimes I would travel the whole way to the booking station and unfortunately miss the bus. The long queues at the booking station were also unbearable. It also required me to carry money in cash to make payments which is a bit risky.

"I use Buupass to book when I travel from Nairobi to Homa Bay and vice versa."
