Delete Your Waka Ride Account
Last Updated: October 2026
This page explains how users of the Waka Ride app (developer: Waka Ride) can delete their account and associated data. You can do it inside the app, or request it by email without the app.
Option 1: Delete in the app
- Open the Waka Ride app and sign in.
- Go to Profile.
- Select Delete Account.
- Enter your password to confirm.
- Select Delete.
In-app deletion takes effect immediately and cannot be undone.
Option 2: Request deletion by email (no app needed)
If you no longer have the app installed, or cannot sign in:
- Send an email to support@wakaride.africa from the email address registered on your Waka Ride account.
- Use the subject Delete my Waka Ride account and include the phone number on the account.
- We will confirm the request and delete your account within 7 days, and reply to let you know it is done.
What Is Deleted
When your account is deleted we permanently remove:
- Your login and sign-in access
- Your personal details: name, phone number, email address, emergency contact and profile photo
What Is Retained
- Records of completed rides, package deliveries, payments and ratings are kept with your personal details removed, because they also belong to the other passenger, driver or courier involved and are needed for financial and legal records.
- Payment records may also be retained by our payment processor, Flutterwave, for as long as financial regulations require.
- Deleted data may remain briefly in encrypted system backups before being purged in the normal backup cycle.
