About Etsa
Built in South Africa, for South Africa — honest pricing, verified providers, real tracking.
Last updated: 15 September 2026The story
Etsa started with a simple problem: in South Africa, getting something done — a bakkie, a water tanker, a gardener, a load of sand — usually meant a phone number, a guess at the price, and hoping for the best.
We built Etsa to change that. One platform for rides, home services, water and building materials, with transparent server-side quotes, verified providers and live tracking. From WhatsApp to done, in three steps.
Etsa is a product of Live Lonke ICT — a South African software company building local technology for local realities.
Why Etsa
- Price first: you always know what you'll pay before you confirm.
- Providers are vetted before their first job.
- Live tracking and SOS keep every job visible and safe.
- Built for the way the country actually moves — taxis, bakkies and tankers included.
Who it's for
Customers: anyone who needs a ride, a hand, a delivery or materials — on WhatsApp, the web, or the app.
Providers: drivers, gardeners, cleaners, tanker owners and builders looking for steady, fairly-priced work with reliable payment.
