FAQ

About Kango

   Kango is an app-based service that enables you to schedule rides for kids, from preschool to high school. Whether your child needs a ride to school every Monday or needs to get to soccer practice everyday after school, you can trust Kango to help get your kids where they need to go.

   All pre-screened Kango drivers have experience caring for kids and must pass our rigorous selection process, which includes in-person interviews, background checks, fingerprinting, and more. When you sign up, you gain access to this group of providers and can request their help whenever you need it. The Kango service is fully insured and licensed by the Public Utilities Commission.

   Our services are currently available in California, Arizona, and New Mexico, with plans to expand to more locations in the near future.

Is there a restriction on age or number of children that can use Kango?
Kango is able to take care of children of any age. For rides, we ask that children under the age of 2 years old be accompanied by a parent or guardian. If your child requires a car seat or booster seat, just let us know and we’ll provide one at no extra charge.

Our sitters can care for several children at once, as long as it is agreed in advance. Our drivers can drive as many children as fit safely in their cars - ranging from approximately three in a sedan up to five in a minivan.
For rides, does my child need to have a mobile phone?
No. Children do not need to have a mobile phone in order to ride with Kango. Before the ride, we make sure we have all the information we need in order to pick up, transport, and drop off your child(ren) safely. We are in touch with our drivers before, during and after the ride.

Booking Drivers

How do I book a driver or sitter?
  1. Open the app and go to the Kango home screen
    Tap the icon that corresponds to what you need:
    Drivers for rides
    Sitters for childcare
  2. Fill out the Quick Request Form
    Select one more more children, add location details and any special needs
  3. Post your Request
    Your request will go out to the pre-screened Drivers and Sitters in your area. If you have expressed a preference for one or more specific drivers or sitters, your request will be posted to them, first. If a driver or sitter is available and accepts your request, you will receive a notification in the app. You will then be able to message them directly via the app, if desired.
Can I schedule an interview with a driver or sitter before I book?
Yes! On request, you can meet your driver or sitter ahead of time so that both you and your child feel comfortable. You can even go for a ride-along with a driver.

Your first interview is free. Booking rates apply to subsequent interviews.
What if my child requires a car seat or booster seat?
No problem! Just specify whether you need Kango to supply a forward-facing car seat or booster seat when you set up your child's profile and that information will automatically be included with your request. We will arrange for your driver to have the seat safely installed in the car before pickup.
What if I need a driver to babysit my child before drop off or after pickup?
Our drivers can also babysit. Please indicate your needs when you submit your request so we know how many additional hours of babysitting are required - or post two separate requests and we will process them together.

Ride fares will apply for the ride itself and Sitter rates will apply for babysitting hours.
Are Kango drivers available for car pools, where children from several families can share the ride?
Yes! Please indicate the details of what you need when you submit your request, and we can contact you individually if we need additional information.
Can I request a specific driver or sitter?
Yes! How to request a specific driver or sitter: Simply specify your requested driver or sitter’s name in the Notes section of your request.

Some reasons you might want to request a specific driver or sitter:
  • Your friend used this driver or sitter before and recommends them
  • You used this driver or sitter before and your kids loved them!
  • You viewed their profile and think they’d be a great fit for your family
How do I stay in touch with a driver or sitter while they are taking care of my child?
Your driver or sitter will comment or message you via the app so you are always in the loop. Please keep in mind they cannot text while driving! You can also use the app to track location in real time or call your provider if you need to talk.
Can Kango drive adults?
Parents and caregivers can ride along with their children, as long as they are listed as passengers on the ride in the Kango app, and vehicle capacity permitting. However, rides for unaccompanied adults/seniors with specific medical conditions or disabilities, require approval by Kango in advance of the ride. Before the ride, requestors must first contact Kango to discuss the passenger's special needs, determine if we have a driver with the required experience and training, and confirm the booking. It is also necessary to list any special needs or requirements in the Notes section of the ride request in the app, in addition to the passenger profile.
Can I set up recurring rides and childcare with drivers or sitters?
Yes! Please indicate the details of what you need when you submit your request and we will contact you individually if there are any questions. While we do our best to find drivers and/or sitters who can help you as many times as possible, we cannot guarantee that it will always be the same person.
Can I save a location to reuse on future requests?
Yes! If you add an address for a new location when creating a request, it will automatically be added to your list of previously used locations. Each time you make a request, you can select that location again.
How do I pay a driver or sitter?
When a ride or babysitting event ends, open the Kango app and tap the Pay button to pay your Driver or Sitter. Tips are optional.

If you don’t pay on your own via the app, we will process payment automatically for you within 24 hours.
How much does the Kango service cost?
  • Ride fare: Varies by time and distance traveled as well as a $3 safe ride fee.
  • Minimum Ride Fares :
    • Northern California : $24
    • Southern California : $24

    • Phoenix, Arizona : $21
  • Baby/Toddler Car Seat Fee : $8 per car seat per ride (rear-facing or forward-facing).

  • Sitter rate: Ranges from $15-22 per hour for a single child. Additional children may cost more.
    • For babysitting, there is a minimum duration of one hour.
Will any tax or regulatory fees be added to my ride fares?
In California, as required by law, the following regulatory fees are added to applicable ride fares in your area at the time of payment. These charges, if applied, appear on your payment confirmation (receipt) email for each ride. Kango must pay (remit) these fees to the relevant authorities :

  • $0.10 CA Access for All Fee: Pursuant to Public Utilities Commission Decision D.19-06-033, Kango, along with other ridesharing or “Transportation Network Companies” (TNC), is required to collect and remit to the California Public Utilities Commission, a ten cent ($0.10) fee on each ride in California, to support the expansion of on-demand transportation for non-folding wheelchair users who require a wheelchair accessible vehicle (WAV).
    • Additional information: In 2018, the California Legislature adopted Senate Bill 1376, known as the, “TNC Access for All Act.” According to this Act, each Transportation Network Company providing services in California must collect and remit to the California Public Utilities Commission (“CPUC”) an Access for All Fee in the amount of $0.10 per ride. July 1, 2019 was the scheduled start date for the fee. Funds collected by the CPUC in accordance with this Act are deposited into an Access for All Fund and then distributed on a competitive basis to transportation carriers that establish on-demand transportation programs or partnerships to meet the needs of individuals with disabilities.
  • San Francisco Traffic Mitigation Congestion Tax: In November 2019, the voters of San Francisco passed Proposition D, the Traffic Congestion Mitigation Tax. In general, the measure places a 3.25% charge on individual rideshare rides provided by TNC companies, among other types of services. Tax rates may vary by type of booking. Only rides that originate in the city of San Francisco are subject to the tax.
Why is there a safe ride fee for Kango?
The safe ride fee helps us to ensure that the most reliable, safest drivers and sitters are available to you. Our rigorous screening, compliance, and operations support are ongoing activities at Kango that go well beyond the initial vetting of candidates:
  • Periodic background checks
  • TrustLine verification (includes fingerprinting)
  • DMV record checks
  • Vehicle safety inspections
  • Driver and sitter training
  • Car seat and booster seat availability
  • Commercial insurance coverage
  • Operating permit issued by the Public Utilities Commission
What is your cancellation policy if I need to cancel a ride or sitter request?
If you cancel a confirmed ride or childcare request more than 24 hours before the date and time that it is scheduled to start, there is no cancellation fee. Similarly, if you cancel a request that was never confirmed (e.g. never assigned to a driver or sitter), no fee will apply.

If you cancel a confirmed request less than 24 hours before it’s scheduled to begin, a cancellation fee will apply to cover the cost of your driver or sitter’s time:
  • For ride requests, we will charge you the estimated cost of the ride (low end of the estimated range)
  • For childcare requests, we will charge you 50% of the estimated cost. However, if you cancel less than 1 hour before the sitter is supposed to arrive at your door, then we will charge you the full estimate.
We understand that last minute changes do arise, especially when managing kids’ schedules. In that spirit, we will waive the fee for first-time cancellations. If you cancel more than once, then fees will apply.

How do I setup my phone for tracking?
Kango drivers should set their phones location services to 'Always' before commencing a ride.

It's important to note that Kango will only track your location from the moment you initiate the ride (by tapping 'On my way') until its conclusion (when you mark 'Dropped Off').

How does the insurance work for drivers?
Kango has commercial auto liability insurance which covers drivers on the Kango platform. As long as you have valid personal auto insurance that meets state requirements, you are not required to have additional insurance.

Kango’s commercial auto liability insurance provides coverage up to a $1,000,000 limit per occurrence, for bodily injury or property damage caused by you to passengers and/or third parties. It also provides coverage up to a $1,000,000 limit, for bodily injury of drivers and/or passengers for damages caused by an at-fault underinsured or uninsured motorist.
