Set your rates
Rates per vehicle class, distance bands, minimums, waiting, stops, gratuity and tax, and exactly how a price is worked out.
- Who:
- Owners and admins
Every price in LimoGlide comes from your rates: rides you book in the office, requests on your booking page, and the quote calculator. Prices are always worked out again on our server from the rates you saved, so a price can't be changed by tampering with a web page.
Add or change rates
- Open Pricing & company and click Edit rates.
- Choose a Vehicle class: Sedan, SUV, Sprinter, Stretch limo or Minibus. Classes you haven't priced yet say "(not set)".
- Fill in the rates (below) and save. Repeat for each class you offer.
Only classes with rates can be booked, in the office or on your booking page.
The rates, one by one
| Field | Used for |
|---|---|
| Airport fee | Airport transfers: a flat amount added to the mileage charge |
| Base fare | Point-to-point trips: a flat amount added to the mileage charge |
| Per mile | Each mile of a one-way trip (beyond the last distance band, if you use bands) |
| Hourly rate and Minimum hours | Hourly service. Booking fewer hours than the minimum is charged as the minimum |
| Minimum fare | No one-way fare goes below this, before gratuity, tax and tolls |
| Waiting per hour | Waiting beyond the free minutes, charged by the minute at this hourly rate |
| Extra stop | Each additional stop on the way |
Distance bands (optional)
Many companies charge a flat fare for short trips. Type one band per line as "up to miles = price", for example:
- 4.99 = 85
- 10 = 100
- 20 = 125
A trip inside a band costs that band's fare. A trip longer than the last band costs base fare plus every mile at the per-mile rate (the whole distance, not just the extra). Bands apply to airport and point-to-point trips; the airport fee is still added for airport transfers. Leave the box empty to price every one-way trip as flat amount plus miles × per mile.
How a price is worked out
- The fare. Airport: airport fee + miles × per mile. Point to point: base fare + miles × per mile. With bands, the band's fare instead. Hourly: the greater of the hours booked and the minimum hours, × the hourly rate.
- Minimum fare. If a one-way fare is below your minimum, a "minimum fare adjustment" line brings it up.
- Extra stops, × the extra-stop price.
- Waiting. Minutes beyond the free allowance, at the waiting rate. Hourly rides never pay waiting: you're already paid for the time.
- Gratuity and tax, as percentages of fare + stops + waiting.
- Tolls, added at cost, with no gratuity or tax on them.
Company-wide settings
Below the rates, under Company settings:
- Gratuity % and Tax %, added to every ride.
- Free waiting, airport (min) and Free waiting, other (min): how long a chauffeur waits before waiting time is charged.
