How do I book a spa in Ethiopia for someone else from abroad?

Open Go Addis, find a spa or activity in Addis Ababa, and book the time slot you want. The booking is tied to that time and venue, not to a specific phone in the room, so the person you're booking for just needs to show up.

Can I pay for a booking in Addis Ababa from another country?

Payment happens at the venue for now, so the person attending pays on arrival, or you can arrange to cover it with them directly. In-app payment from anywhere, including abroad, is planned for a future update.

Does someone in Addis Ababa need the app to receive a booking I made?

No, you make the booking, and the venue is expecting them at the time you booked. They just need to show up; they don't need the app themselves for a booking you've made on their behalf.

Why the diaspora uses Go Addis

Sending money home for a spa day or an outing often turns into a logistics project: finding the right number, explaining the booking over a bad connection, hoping it actually gets confirmed. Go Addis replaces that with a normal booking: you see real availability, reserve the exact time, and the venue already knows to expect them.
