Lift up the people
behind your
experience.

A great experience stays with you because of the people who made it. Rate and review the guides, trackers and staff behind yours — your words build their recognition and help the next guest find the best. Then finish with a Levo: a cash-free thank-you that goes straight to them.

The problem

Gratitude gets
lost on the way.

A guest wants to thank the tracker who found the leopard at last light. But it’s 5am, they have the wrong currency, and the only option is a folded note left at reception — pooled, skimmed, and rarely reaching the person by name.

Cash is disappearing from travel, yet the people who make a trip unforgettable still depend on it. Levo closes that gap: a direct line from a grateful guest to a named worker, in the currency they’re carrying.

“Tipping in South Africa is appreciated, and it forms a meaningful part of income for guides and hospitality staff. These are widely accepted ranges, not rules. The same guidance applies to every traveller, regardless of nationality.”

For travellers

Three taps, from arrival to thank-you.

01

Find them

Scan the Levo QR code at reception, or search by name — every ranger, tracker and host appears with their role and rating.

02

Rate & review

Share what made your experience special. Your rating and words build their recognition and help the next guest choose well.

03

Finish with a Levo

If they went the extra mile, send a Levo — any currency in, rand out. 95% lands with the person you chose, and they're notified straight away.

Fairness by design

One fair standard.
Levo lifts everyone up.

A guest from Lagos and a guest from London see the identical suggestion. Levo sets tipping norms with the industry, in rand, for everyone — because gratitude should lift people up, not leave anyone behind.

What’s inside

Small taps. Serious plumbing.

Multi-currency wallet

Load once in dollars, pounds or euros. Levo in rand all trip, with no conversion surprises at the till.

Trip gratuity calculator

Days, tours, lodges, safaris in — a fair budget out. Preload the wallet in one tap; unused funds refund.

Unique QR & pay-links

Every venue and every guide gets their own link. Print it, badge it, or drop it on an NFC table card.

No app download needed

The traveller scans and lifts people up in the browser first. Nothing to download, nothing to log into — a Levo app is coming soon.

Verified profiles

Guides are tied to their accreditation body, so a Levo reaches the real person — not a name on an envelope.

Licensed, secure settlement

Money moves through regulated South African payment rails with end-to-end security. Workers keep 95%; Levo takes a flat 5%.

For lodges, hotels & operators

Built with the industry, not at it.

Register your team, hand each guest a QR or NFC table card, and watch gratuities land fairly — with a dashboard that shows what came in and who’s covered.

  • Register your team. Add staff with verified banking. KYC handled before a cent moves.
  • QR & NFC touchpoints. A card per table, per room, per name badge — each links to the right page.
  • Fair pooling. Split a house Levo across back-of-house, or send it to a named guide.
  • A dashboard that tells the truth. Gratuities over time, guest participation, and per-person earnings.
