Mobility Voucher
Fuel up or charge up now. Pay from next week's Uber earnings.
Petrol, diesel or EV charging, before payday. Fuel only? Apply for the Detour Fuel card. Need cash to charge? Get Detour Capital.
Fuel card: opens fuel.detour.africa, a separate sign-up from your Detour account. Detour Capital: signs you up on driver.detour.africa.
The Fuel card needs a Detour Drive Account
The Fuel card is for drivers on a Detour plan. Your plan keeps your Detour Drive Account active, and that is what keeps your Fuel card working.
Why drivers use it
Fill up today, not on payday
Here at Detour we provide Mobility Vouchers to carry you over until payday. Fill up at any major station and pay a small service fee through your Uber account. No cash. No upfront payment.
- Fill up at any major fuel station.
