Taxinet Charge Account System

for Taxi Booking Services

1. Customer payment options include the following which can be mixed in any combination:

    a. Single Use Taxinet Cards

      Ideal for larger organisations which have many infrequent travelers. Single Use Taxinet Cards are disposable magnetic stripe cards made from light cardboard similar to hose in use by many transport systems). Single Use Taxinet Cards have been specifically designed to replace existing paper docket payment systems. Instead of a passenger presenting a paper docket at the end of a trip, a passenger presents a Single Use Taxinet Card. Each card is valid for one taxi trip and is swiped through a Schmidt TX 2000 Mini-terminal. The passenger will be asked to sign a receipt and be given a copy. The Single Use Taxinet Card is then destroyed by the driver. This provides a much more professional and efficient service to account passengers, who will no longer be required to wait while the driver fills out a docket.

     

    b. Plastic Taxinet Cards

      Ideal for long term, regular customers. Plastic Taxinet Cards are plastic payment cards similar to most credit and charge cards. Plastic Taxinet Cards work on a similar basis to Single Use Taxinet Cards with the major difference being that it can be used more than once. At the end of the trip the card can be presented for payment in the same way as a credit or charge card. Once the transaction is complete and signature has been verified, the driver hands the card back to the passenger along with a receipt of the transaction.

     

    c. Cardless Depot Orders

      These are fares recorded on a terminal where the driver keys in a Customer ID number, Order Number and Fare amount. When a job is allocated, the driver will be notified of the customers ID number and the job order number. At the end of a journey, the driver enters these numbers into the Schmidt TX-2000 Mini-terminal and a receipt will be printed. The passenger signs the driver’s copy and the transaction is then complete.

2. Regular automatic monthly reports include:

    a. Customer Billing Report, which provides a listing of all trips done during the month by each account customer. This report is used for invoicing customers.
