Peer-to-peer errands · Lagos

Someone is already going that way.

Carrying is a peer-to-peer errand network for people who are already going somewhere. No fleet, no dispatch, no rider circling for work — a neighbour’s declared journey, a fair fee, and a handover both sides stamp.

Carriers keep at least 70% of every fee. That is a rule, not a promotion.

2 Sept 2026 · Uber winds down operations in Nigeria, 12 years after its Lagos launch

The cars left the app. The journeys did not leave the road.

Nobody stopped going to work, to market, to school, to the next street. At any moment, millions of Nigerians are in motion — and almost all of that motion carries spare capacity.

01An empty boot.
02A free hand.
03A ten-minute detour.
04A queue you are already standing in.

That capacity is not scarce. It is simply unaddressed.

Carrying is

A network that converts journeys people are already making into witnessed, contracted, settled value for someone else.

The rules

Built on rules we will not break — even when it would grow faster.

Most platforms publish values. Carrying publishes constraints — and builds the product so they cannot be quietly walked back.

RULE 01

The Motion Rule

A carrier may only accept an errand that lies on a journey they were already making. There is no browse-and-bid, no job board — a carrier who has not declared a journey sees nothing.

RULE 02

Detour honesty

Every match states what it costs the carrier — in kilometres and minutes — before it states the fee. Nobody is priced into a journey they did not intend.

RULE 03

The Ceiling

What a carrier may hold rises only through witnessed completions. No documents upsell, no paid verification, no shortcut a growth team can sell.

RULE 04

Both sides stamp

No handover exists until both sides stamp it — a six-digit code read aloud, not a silent scan. It completes with no network and reaches a requester on a feature phone by SMS or USSD.

RULE 05

Carriers keep at least 70%

The carrier take floor is a hard constraint of the model, not an introductory rate. The person doing the carrying keeps the substance of the fee.

RULE 06

Withheld, not hidden

When an errand is outside your ceiling or your detour envelope, Carrying says so and says why. The rules are visible — a ladder you can see yourself climbing.

The errand

An errand is not a claim. It is a chain of stamped events.

01DECLAREDCarrier declares a journey.
02MATCHEDEngine pairs. Both accept.
03CONTRACTEDTerms locked. Funds held.
04CUSTODYPickup stamped by both. Irreversible.

Trust

Trust is earned in increments, never granted in bulk. A new carrier cannot carry your laptop.

Foundation

Carrying is the second commercial application built on Plugg.

Plugg is the social commerce framework incubated by Cocoon Letters Limited. Carrying consumes its primitives rather than reinventing them. Aboki, in Aba, came first.

Questions

Fair questions, straight answers

Carrying is being built in the open, rules first. If your question isn’t here, ask — we answer plainly or say “we don’t know yet.”

What can be sent?

Small, lawful items a person can carry without changing their journey — documents, chargers, forgotten keys, a parcel from the market. Every item is declared, photographed, and checked against the carrier's tier ceiling.

Is this another gig-work app?

No. Carrying is not a transport company, not ride-pooling, not a logistics marketplace, and not an employer. There is no shift and no quota — a carrier declares a journey they were making anyway and takes at most what fits along it.

What happens if the network dies at a handover?

The stamp completes with no network and reconciles when you reconnect. And a requester doesn't need a smartphone — the code reaches a feature phone by SMS or USSD.

When and where does Carrying launch?

Carrying does not launch in a city. It launches in a corridor — bounded, dense, and socially legible. Lagos first; corridors multiply, and cities are what corridors become. Join the waitlist and we'll tell you when yours opens.

Your errand is someone’s route home.

Be first in line when your corridor opens — as a requester, a carrier, or both.

One email when your corridor opens. Nothing else.
