Gas Refill and Delivery in Cotonou

Cotonou runs along the coast and the lagoon out to Abomey-Calavi, and a service that stops at the city centre misses where most people actually live.

Neighbourhoods we build around

Coverage is built around Cadjèhoun, Fidjrossè, Akpakpa and Ganhi and reaches out through Gbégamey and Cocotomey to Abomey-Calavi, with vendors placed so the sprawl north of the lagoon is served rather than treated as the edge of the map.

Prices are in CFA francs, set by Cotonou vendors. XOF has no minor unit, and the platform handles that properly rather than showing a figure wrong by a factor of a hundred. Orders are paid to the rider on delivery while in-app payment for Benin is being set up.

Questions about Cotonou

Which parts of Cotonou does Patride cover?

Coverage is built around Cadjèhoun, Fidjrossè, Akpakpa, Ganhi, Gbégamey, Cocotomey and Abomey-Calavi, with vendors distributed across the metro rather than clustered in one district. The app shows what is available at your address before you order.

What currency do I pay in?

XOF. Prices are set by vendors in Cotonou and every fee — including delivery — is shown before you place the order.

How much does gas delivery cost in Cotonou?

The gas price is set by the vendor and delivery is charged in distance bands set for the Cotonou market. Both are quoted together before you commit, so the amount you agree to is the amount charged.

Can I order more than one service at a time?

Yes. A gas refill and a grocery order can travel together as one delivery with one fee and one rider.
