Or search "Numus Driver" directly in the store. Links and QR codes also appear on the Drivers page in your dashboard.

  3. Allow location permission — required to appear on the map and receive orders.
  4. Set status to Online / Available to start receiving assignments.
5Add routes & pricing

Open Routes & PricingAdd Route. Routes define your zones and how fares are calculated — prices apply automatically when you create an order.

Set a Route Name (e.g. Lagos Mainland), a Category (Local, Interstate, International, Same/Next Day, Express…), and a Pricing Type:

Pricing typeHow it works
Flat RateOne fixed price for the route
Per KilometerBase fare + price × distance
Per KilogramBase fare + price × weight
DynamicCombines distance and weight rates

Add your Base Fare, per-km / per-kg rates, and optional Min/Max distance & weight limits. Use the built-in Price Calculator to preview a fare before saving.

6Create orders

Open OrdersCreate Order. Capture walk-ins, phone bookings, and WhatsApp orders in one place.

  • Pick-up & delivery — sender and receiver name, phone, and addresses (with auto-complete).
  • Package — description, weight (kg) and distance (km) for automatic pricing.
  • Route / Pricing plan — select a route; the fare is calculated automatically.
  • Customer & payment — customer details and payment method (online or offline / Cash-on-Delivery).
  • Assign Driver — choose an available driver; they get the order in the Numus Driver app.
At drop-off, the customer gives an OTP code. The driver enters it (or your team uses Confirm Drop-off) to securely mark the order delivered. Move any order through its pipeline on the Update Order Status page.
7Track drivers live

Open Live Tracking to see every active driver on an interactive map in real time.

  • Each online driver appears as a marker you can monitor at a glance.
  • Click a driver to view Driver Details and current status.
  • Search to find a specific driver or order.
A driver only appears on the map when the Numus Driver app is open, location is enabled, and their status is Online.
