Quick RidesShort rides inside a service area by bike or auto. The fare comes from the area's rates and the road distance and is shown before you book. Captains nearest to you are asked first. You can add a little extra to get a captain faster. You pay the captain directly (cash or UPI); Gosaath never takes any money.How to book
Long RidesTown to town by bike or car. Captains offer empty seats at a price per seat; you request seats, or post your own request. Chat with the captain in the app; passengers never call captains.How Long Rides work
RentalsRent a bike, scooty or car from an owner near you. Choose the vehicle, when and for how long, and send the request. You pay the owner directly; Gosaath never takes any money.How to rentReference IDs
Some screens show a reference ID, such as RT-MDP-SC-7KQ2M9XA. Give it to support so the team can find your ride or request quickly. The first two letters say what it is, then the place (for example MDP for Madanapalle) and the vehicle, then 8 letters and numbers.
