Admin Workflows

Ridy is giving you control over service you provide. The Admin Panel is your command center for managing users, drivers, trips, payments, and system settings. This guide walks you through the key workflows and features available to platform administrators.

🚦 Dashboard Overview

After logging in, the Dashboard provides a real-time overview of:

• Active orders, rides, or deliveries
• Registered users and drivers
• Revenue by product and region
• Live service availability
• Operational status of geofences, APIs, and notifications
