A human in Guyana
Local support, real phone line. WhatsApp a human when anything goes sideways.
Arriving in Georgetown as an expat — oil-and-gas secondee, diplomatic posting, multilateral-development-bank mission, long-stay consultant — the first logistics question is transport. Uber doesn't operate; the informal taxi market is negotiation-heavy; company drivers take days to arrange. GuyWay is the "works immediately" option: download the app, sign in with a Guyanese phone number (or a foreign one), book your first ride from CJIA to the hotel.
Typical expat use: airport arrivals; daily commutes during the first week before a company car arrives; evening restaurant runs to Sheriff Street; weekend trips to the Botanical Gardens or the seawall. English-speaking Guyanese drivers across the fleet; fares fixed in-app regardless of how well you know the city yet.

Frequently asked
Can I use GuyWay with a foreign phone number?
Yes — the app accepts international mobile numbers at signup. You’ll receive an SMS verification; phone numbers with roaming enabled work fine. A Guyanese number is recommended for long-term use.
Payment options for expats without a local bank account?
International Visa/Mastercard works. Apple Pay and Google Pay work. Cash is accepted on drivers who opt in. MMG requires a Guyanese account.
English-speaking drivers?
All GuyWay drivers are Guyanese and speak English as their primary language. No driver-language mismatch risk.
