The pickup PIN

What the pickup PIN is for, where you and the driver see it, and what to do when it does not match.

Updated

The pickup PIN is a short code the app gives you for each ride. The driver enters it before the ride starts. It proves that you are getting into the car booked for you, and that the driver is the one GuyWay sent.

Where you find it

The PIN appears on the ride screen as soon as a driver accepts, next to the driver's name, the car and the plate. When you booked for someone else, the PIN is sent to the number you entered for them.
