Our methodology is public, documented, and updated when platforms change.
Each platform is scored 0–10 per criterion. Final score = weighted average.
A platform that dominates Nairobi may be nearly empty in Mombasa. We rank city-by-city because country averages mislead. Each city's score reflects the actual local user base for that city — not a national estimate.
All city pages are reviewed quarterly. Major changes (price increases, platform shutdowns, new features) trigger an immediate update. Every page displays its last updated date prominently.
Afrolu earns affiliate commissions, but these do not influence rankings. Our scoring is done before affiliate agreements are applied. No platform can pay to improve their ranking.
