Riding
Where does alé go?
Anywhere on Mauritius. Choose a hotel, a town, an address, a point on the map, the airport or where you are now as the pickup, and anywhere else on the island as the drop-off.
How do I book a ride?
Choose where you are going, set the time, the people and bags, then pick a car from the list at its driver’s price and slide to book.
What if no driver is free right now?
You can still send the request. It stays open for 30 minutes and is offered to more drivers every 20 seconds, and the first to accept takes the ride.
How do I find my driver?
The app shows your driver’s name, photo, car and plate, and where they are on the map. Give them your four-digit ride code when you get in.
Prices and paying
Who sets the price?
Each driver sets their own prices, per km or as fixed fares between regions. You see the fare of every car before you book.
How do I pay?
Pay your driver at the end of the ride, in cash or with MCB Juice. alé never handles the payment.
Does alé take a commission?
No. alé takes no commission on fares. Riders pay their driver directly.
Which currencies can I see prices in?
Mauritian rupees, euros, US dollars and pounds sterling. Choose yours in the app.
What happens if I cancel?
The cancellation terms are on the booking screen before you slide to book, and any fee goes to your driver.
Booking for others
How do I book a ride for someone else?
Add them by email. alé emails them a six-digit code, and once they give it to you, you can book their rides. They receive every ride email and do not need the app.
How do I stop someone booking for me?
In the app, open Who can book for you and tap Stop beside them.
