The latest to the lot, Gyre app has entered the evolving ride-sharing market in Nepal on Womens’ International Day, March 8th. The app has already become popular thanks to its female-friendly feature that allows one female to book a ride with a female.
Like Tootle, Gyre is a pure Nepali venture resulting out of a collaboration with SunBi, a Nepali IT company. Already flush with leaders Pathao, Tootle, Taximandu, and others, Gyre will be looking to ride on its secure riding mantra. The service primarily focuses on efficient riding and ‘freedom to full extent’ for passengers. And not to mention, it is the first ride-hailing service that allows a female passenger to book a ride with a female rider. Those who find a discomfort to ride with male riders will easily find it a choice by default.
Besides, Gyre lets passengers hail a ride on motorcycles or taxis both and offers some unique features. There are features such as Gyre Assistance, Gyre Pink, and the upcoming Call Masking which attempts at providing a comfortable and safe ride to the commuters. The company says it will gradually add more features as it expands. The company has also set aim at becoming the first ride-sharing service to grow beyond the domestic lanes.

Let’s get going at some of Gyre’s key features.
Another ‘first’ to come with a ride-sharing app Gyre is the points system. Gyre has a points system. Users of this app can earn Gyre points by participating in daily quizzes and being part of certain services.
The users can then redeem the points to enjoy all the features within the app. Besides, users can also transfer their points to help others hail a ride. Meanwhile, for those without money, there is an option to borrow points through the ‘Gyre Sapati’ option.
