    $399 hosted web booker + $10/month — live in 5–10 business days
    $3k–$8k freelancer WordPress: slow, no dispatch, high maintenance
    $15k–$40k agency custom site with booking + payments
    $8,500 enterprise: booking site + dispatch + white-label apps
    Ongoing: hosting, domain, Stripe fees, Google Maps API

    The four price tiers in 2026

    Tier 1 — white-label hosted booking site ($399 upfront, $10/month): mobile-responsive, Stripe/Wise payments, SMS confirmations, driver dispatch alerts, SEO-ready. Live in days. Tier 2 — freelancer WordPress build ($3,000–$8,000): usually a template plus a plugin, slow, brittle, needs $500–$1,500 per year maintenance. Tier 3 — agency custom build ($15,000–$40,000): built to spec but usually excludes dispatch, driver app and native mobile apps. Tier 4 — full custom booking + dispatch platform ($50,000–$150,000): everything from scratch, 4–9 months, requires an in-house PM.

    Why most operators pick tier 1 or the enterprise plan

    Tiers 2 and 3 are false economies — you pay $8k–$40k and still don't have a driver app, dispatch console or corporate accounts, so you end up bolting on iCabbi or TaxiCaller at $500–$2,000/month anyway. The math is clear: either start at $399 hosted (5-car fleet, testing the market) or jump straight to the $8,500 enterprise package which bundles booking site + dispatch console + driver app + passenger app for one payment.

    Ongoing costs you must budget for

    Domain and SSL ($15–$50/year), hosting ($10–$99/month depending on tier), Stripe/Wise fees (1.4–2.9% + fixed), Google Maps API ($200 free tier then $2–$7 per 1,000 loads), SMS gateway ($0.008–$0.02 per SMS), and app-store fees if you have native apps ($99/year Apple + $25 one-time Google). A well-run 20-vehicle operator spends $150–$500/month total on infrastructure.

    Where costs blow up

    Custom mobile apps ($15k–$40k each platform), corporate accounts module ($8k–$15k retrofit), airport module with flight tracking ($10k–$20k), multi-language support ($5k–$10k), and going back for a 'simple' change post-launch ($100–$200/hour). Every one of these is included in the $8,500 enterprise plan — which is why the enterprise plan wins on TCO once you cross ~10 vehicles.
