Description:
NetTaxis Brokerage is a Victorian based business that is currently developing an interactive web based platform which will enable Network Service Providers (NSPs) to sell pre-paid taxi fares online to consumers. This platform will be known as NetTaxis.
NetTaxis is designed specifically to provide consumers with a new age alternative when booking taxis and hire cars compared to current traditional booking methods. Fares that are booked through the NetTaxis system will have more flexibility, safety, and increased customer involvement compared to current methods. This is because unlike traditional booking methods the NetTaxis platform will be able to harness the power of online software, to give not only more streamlining in the current booking process, but will also allow consumers to select from a range of service options that have not been avilable in the past. The platform will enable access to a highly professional, user-friendly web interface; where functionality, flexibility, and ease of use are paramount; 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
NetTaxis is a start up business with the goal of utilising the internet to give the taxi industry a new dimension in the way consumers can organise and book fares. The concept is to develop a highly interactive website that allows consumers to log on to one website, select the trip they wish to take, review and choose from the various NSPs that can accommodate them in the area they wish to travel, and can then pre-pay their fare. The consumer’s selected NSP will then receive notification of the fare and pick up the customer as per their usual system. Drivers will have a guarantee on payment for their services. Conversely customers will have assurance of their taxi arriving and never having any complications with regards to fare price.
