In our fast-paced world, convenience and efficiency are paramount, including when booking a taxi from hotels, bars and restaurants. Thankfully, the taxi industry is constantly evolving to meet customer needs and implementing innovations like QR code taxi bookers, such as Taxi Butler’s Guest QR which improves automation rates and provides benefits for both taxi fleets and their customers alike.
BENEFITS FOR TAXI FLEETS
Automates bookings from venues One of the key advantages of QR taxi bookers is their ability to automate bookings from venues. Guests can easily book a taxi from their smartphones without downloading an app, calling a call centre or hailing a taxi on the street. When guests scan a QR code and book a ride through a QR taxi booker the booking goes straight to the fleet’s dispatch system, eliminating the need for manual data entry and reducing the chance of human error. This ensures the booking is quickly processed and assigned to a nearby driver, resulting in faster response times and improved customer satisfaction. By automating bookings through QR codes, fleets can reduce the workload for dispatchers and free them up to focus on other, more complex tasks.
Reduces no-shows and increases booking quality With SMS authentication, QR taxi bookers ensure passengers are verified and track their taxi to the venue. By confirming their identity, guests are more likely to show up for their booking, saving taxi drivers from delays and lost revenue. Genuine customers mean better quality bookings for taxi drivers. Win-win!
Generates more bookings by enhancing brand visibility and awareness QR codes have gained significant popularity as taxi companies creatively integrate them into their operations. Taxi Butler’s QR code taxi booker generates unique QR codes that can be incorporated into marketing materials such as table tents or stickers strategically placed in hotels, bars, or restaurants. Taxi company owners can customise the booking interface

with their branding and pre-configure available taxi types. By increasing visib- ility within venues and local businesses, more customers are likely to choose local taxi fleets, resulting in reduced waiting
times, a higher number of bookings, and, ultimately, increased revenue for the taxi company and its drivers.
Imagine this: a hotel guest is getting ready to go out for dinner. They want a simple and safe way of getting to their destination. They see a sticker on the door with a taxi-hailing QR code as they leave their hotel room. They scan the code and book a taxi from the hotel with a local and trusted taxi company. They track their taxi from the comfort of the lobby until it arrives. Delivering endless possibilities for taxi fleets across the globe, QR taxi bookers, such as Guest QR, let taxi fleets generate even more automated bookings, increase their brand visibility and create exclusivity with local venues.
BENEFITS FOR GUESTS INSIDE HOTELS, BARS AND RESTAURANTS
Users can simply scan a QR code, add their contact details, and track their taxi in real time on the map. With preset pick-up addresses and smart destination selection, guests can quickly search and choose their drop-off location. Directly entering their drop-off points makes the booking process more precise, minimising potential issues. The QR taxi booker offers a seamless and hassle-free booking experience, surpassing the need to download an app. It efficiently connects guests and visitors inside venues to local fleets, bypassing the wait times associated with call centres.
Using QR codes to book taxis is a technological advancement that is transforming the way people book taxis inside hotels, bars and restaurants, making it easy for passengers to get home without hassle. With just a scan of a code on your smartphone, you can have a taxi at your doorstep within minutes. This combination of simplicity, ease of use and innovation gives customers a smooth experience and an excellent opportunity for the fleets to boost revenue.
