Taxi Booking & Fare Calculator for WordPress

Instant fares, real bookings

Taxi Booking & Fare Calculator turns your WordPress site into a booking desk. Customers search their pickup and drop-off, choose a car, and instantly see the driving distance, travel time and a clear fare breakdown. One more step and the booking is in your inbox.

For your customers

• Address search for pickup and drop-off, powered by Google
• Fares from the real driving distance, not a straight line
• One-way and round trips
• An itemised breakdown: base fare, distance charge, driver allowance, night charge, tolls, extra charges and tax
• Book in the same form, with a booking reference and email confirmation

For you

• Cars with photos, seats and your own rates: per-km price, base fare and included kilometres, minimum fare, driver allowance, night charge, and any extra charge you name (airport fee, parking, permits)
• Tour packages with a fixed price, duration, vehicle, inclusions and itinerary
• Bookings dashboard with every booking, its fare and the customer's contact details
• Settings for currency, tax, tolls, minimum fare, round-trip multiplier, night hours and email notifications
• Shortcodes for the booking form, car list and packages, plus a REST API for apps

Built to be safe to run

• Your Google key never reaches the browser; every Google request runs on your server.
• Built on Google's current Routes API and Places API (New), which new Google Cloud projects can use. The older APIs many taxi plugins rely on are closed to new projects.
• Distances are cached for a day, and per-visitor rate limits stop bots from running up your Google bill or flooding you with fake bookings.

Requirements

• WordPress 5.6+ (tested with WordPress 7.1), PHP 7.4+
• A Google Cloud API key with Places API (New) and Routes API enabled, with billing on. Google bills lookups directly and includes a monthly free allowance.

Questions

Can customers pay online? Not yet. Bookings arrive as requests that you confirm with the customer.

Is Google usage included? No. Google bills address searches and route lookups to your own Google Cloud account.

Does it work if the license expires? Yes. Quotes and bookings keep working; updates and support stop until you renew.
