In Kenya today, the hustle is everywhere—from the streets of Kisii to the estates of Eldoret and the coastal corners of Mombasa. But for millions of skilled service providers, the biggest challenge isn’t talent—it’s access. Long job queues, unreliable referrals, and unsafe gigs have made earning a living harder than it should be.
That’s why the Balozy App is changing the game. Built for Kenya’s service economy, Balozy connects verified professionals to real clients—digitally, safely, and county by county. Whether you’re a mama fua in Kisii, a driver in Eldoret, or a decorator in Mombasa, Balozy helps you turn your skills into verified income.
The Problem: Long Queues, Few Opportunities
In towns like Kisii, job seekers often spend hours—sometimes days—lining up outside offices, clutching brown envelopes, hoping for a chance. Many are skilled fundis, cleaners, tailors, and technicians. But without a platform to showcase their work, they’re stuck in a cycle of uncertainty.
This outdated system favors connections over competence. It leaves out talented individuals in rural or peri-urban areas, and it wastes time that could be spent earning.
The Balozy Solution: Jobs Without the Queue
Balozy is a Kenyan-built service marketplace app that connects verified professionals with customers looking for trusted services. Instead of queuing for jobs, service providers can now:
- 📱 Create a verified profile with their skills, experience, and work photos
- 📍 Receive real-time job requests from clients nearby
- ⭐ Build a reputation through customer reviews and ratings
- 💼 Get hired based on merit—not who they know
This digital shift is empowering thousands of Kenyans to earn a living without ever standing in line.
Verified Profiles Build Trust
One of the biggest challenges in informal hiring is trust. Clients worry about safety, reliability, and professionalism. Balozy solves this with a multi-step verification process:
- ✅ ID Verification
- 📞 Phone and Email Confirmation
- 🔍 Optional Background Checks
- 👀 Manual Profile Vetting
This ensures that every pro on the platform is credible, helping customers hire with confidence—and giving service providers a competitive edge.
Safety First: Protecting Pros and Clients
Safety isn’t just a feature—it’s a foundation. Balozy has built-in protections to ensure every job is secure:
- 🔐 In-app messaging to avoid sharing personal numbers
- 📍 Location tracking for job coordination
- 🛡️ Verified client profiles
- 🧾 Dispute resolution and support team access
Whether you’re entering someone’s home or coordinating a delivery, Balozy ensures you’re protected.

- ✅Kisii: Daraja Mbili, Suneka, CBD
- ✅Eldoret: Elgon View, Langas, Kapsaret
