Mobitex offers immediately usable solutions and services that deliver real value to taxi companies. Whether it is smooth bookings and dispatch of taxis, wireless payments with high security or real-time information for drivers, Mobitex is already delivering what professional users want from a mobile solution today.
Wireless booking
By providing large shopping malls or business buildings with a terminal regular customers can punch in their PIN code and the system immediately recognizes them as a regular customer and knows the location. Using the satellite-based Global Positioning System (GPS), the dispatching system locates the nearest taxi and sends the customer booking via Mobitex directly to the vehicle. The customer database stores information about frequent pick-up points, such as the customer's home address, office, etc.
High security
Mobitex solutions are designed to enhance security for both drivers and passengers. Drivers are able to send alarms stating the nature of an incident, including location data. In such situations the reliability of the network is of utmost importance.
Wireless ticketing
Increasingly, wireless ticket machines are being installed in taxis. These machines can be wirelessly controlled. Payments can be made by credit or debit cards, with payment authorization performed wirelessly. Mobitex POS (Point of Sale) terminals are certified by both Master Card and Visa as a secure method of payment. The credit card payment reduces the cash in the car. The taxi driver can work nights and days feeling more secure.
Aware and informed at all times
Real-time information about the traffic situation such as road blocks and traffic jams allows the driver to take appropriate actions to ensure the smoothest service.
Fleet management
Wireless fleet control adds value. In addition, various vehicle parameters can be monitored remotely, providing data that allows transport companies to improve service and security, while utilizing resources more efficiently. Experience shows that Mobitex allows business to grow without expanding the fleet. This contributes to very short payback times.
Multi-Company
Several taxi companies can operate from the same system and radio infrastructure. Each call taker can enter calls for a single company or a combination of companies depending on the access assigned by the system manager.
Fleet Summary
The dispatcher can get quick access to fleet information displaying information on the number of trips and taxis in each zone.
