Bykea, stylized as BYKEA, is a Pakistani ride hailing and parcel delivery company based in Karachi. It was founded by Muneeb Maayr in 2016.
In 2018, Bykea partnered with Jazz, a Pakistan-based digital communications company, to provide enhanced digital connectivity and efficiency to users. In 2018, Bykea and MJSF (Mahvash and Jahangir Siddiqui Foundation) joined for the Bikers Support Scheme.
In 2019, Bykea raised $5.7 million in series A funding from local and international institutions.
In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic in Pakistan, Bykea had secured a $13 million investment. However, due to the government's ban on pillion riding to combat the virus, investors reneged on the deal.
In early 2022, Bykea added rickshaws. In mid-2022, they started offering AC and non-AC in their ride-hailing service.
