Adding different vehicle types to the software will actually allow you to manage a wide range of services, such as airport shuttle, private taxi services, luxury limo hire services, etc.

You can add all range of transfer services by adding vehicle types to the system. Using the VEHICLES page in the Admin you can add fleets and make them available for booking.

To add a new vehicle type, go to the VEHICLES page. Then click on the ADD NEW tab and fill the form in. Once you add the vehicle, you should go to TRANSFERS page and add predefined transfer routes and transfer fees. Otherwise the vehicle will not appear on the front-end.

With Shuttle Booking Software you can add and manage predefined routes with multiple drop-offs. All predefined routes should have one pick-up location but can have multiple drop-offs. To add transfer to the the Shuttle Booking Software, go to the Admin, TRANSFERS page, then click on the ADD NEW tab. Specify the pick-up location and at least one drop-off location.

After creating your transfers, you need to add transfer fees for each vehicle that serves the route. Otherwise the vehicle will not be available for booking on the front-end.

From the TRANSFERS page, click on the corresponding pencil icon, then go to the PRICES tab. Add prices for each services (VEHICLES) you have previously added to the system. Please note that, you should have added vehicles by now. If not, please go to the VEHICLES page.

Language Module

IMPORT A LANGUAGE FILE: Under the Import/Export tab you can export the translation. After that open the file and replace the relevant column with the proper titles. Import the new language file using the Import feature.

This is important when you need to re-install the software, because new installations always come in the default English version. Make sure you export the translation before uninstalling the software.

In the Admin, go to OPTIONS>ENQUIRIES>TERMS. Then you can add your own booking terms.


Add your own reservation terms

To make it mandatory for users to agree with your terms upon booking, make sure you have made the TERMS field in the reservation form a required one. To do that, go to OPTIONS>ENQUIRIES>CHECKOUT FORM and make sure to select Yes (Required) for the TERMS field.

In order to send SMS via your shuttle reservation software, you need to set an API key under the OPTIONS>SMS. Please note that the SMS service requires additional charges from a web SMS provider. Contact us to request an API key for your script...

You can customise all the notifications by going to OPTIONS>ENQUIRIES>NOTIFICATIONS. Select either CLIENT or ADMINISTRATOR tab depending on which notification you want to edit. You can enable or disable all notifications by selecting Yes/No for the corresponding notification.

At the NOTIFICATIONS page (OPTIONS>ENQUIRIES>NOTIFICATIONS) you can edit all email and SMS notifications. You can use the tokens listed in the info box to personalize your emails and text messages. Tokens pull the value from the your system and replace it with a real data.
For example, if you add "Dear {FirstName}", and your client Mark is the recipient, you can be sure that the message he gets, will start with the personalized greeting "Dear Mark".
