How to Process Cabcharge Cards

Process digital and physical Cabcharge products

Steps to Process a Cabcharge Payment

  1. Cabcharge fares must be metered

    • Ensure you have started and ended the meter before taking payment, either on your dispatch device or on the terminal if fitted with the all-in-one device.

  2. End the Trip

    • After ending the trip, the terminal will display the final fare and prompt your passenger for payment

    • Important: the terminal will automatically recognise which card type is being presented - you do not need to do anything before taking payment.

    • Note: Tips cannot be added to Cabcharge or government subsidy payments

  3. Approval & Receipt

    • If approved, the screen shows "Approved".

    • You will be prompted to print a customer receipt first, followed by a driver receipt.

    • Tap "Yes" if you would like to print a receipt.

      • We recommend always printing and keeping a copy of the driver receipt for your records.

  4. Complete Transaction

    • The terminal returns to the home screen for the next trip.
