Careem ride-hailing customers will be able to seamlessly log-in to the Careem NOW app with their existing Careem credentials. If they have a debit or credit card registered with Careem it will be automatically linked, as will any saved addresses from the Careem ride-hailing app. Furthermore, existing customers can also use Careem PAY (wallet) to make purchases on the Careem NOW app.
