Zones & area pricing

Draw your patch. Price your patch.

Every fleet has areas that price differently — the ULEZ, the town centre, that estate by the airport. In Cabio you draw them on a map and the engine applies them to every quote, on every channel.

Cabio pricing engine — fare models, surcharges, airports, zones and a live calculator
The pricing engine — zones sit alongside fare rates, surcharges and airports.

How it works

Geometry, not guesswork

Zones are real shapes tested against real coordinates — which is why they don't misfire.

Draw polygons

Sketch any shape directly on the map — a ULEZ boundary, a town centre, one awkward estate.

Drop circles

A centre and a radius when a circle is all you need — stored as a proper zone like everything else.

Surcharge or fixed price

Each zone can add a surcharge to the metered fare or pin journeys to a fixed price.

Exact geometry

Quotes test the actual pickup and drop-off points against your zone shapes — not postcode guesswork.

No substring surprises

Zones match by geometry, so 'Grays' never accidentally matches 'Graystone Road' three towns away.

Test before you publish

Run real journeys through the calculator and see exactly which zones fired and what they added.

Why it matters

Area pricing is where quotes quietly go wrong

Text-matching area names is how other systems do it — and how a fare picks up a city-centre surcharge from a street that merely contains the city's name. Cabio checks the journey's actual points against your drawn shapes instead.

  • ULEZ and congestion charges applied only when the journey truly enters the zone
  • Fixed-price zones for the flat-rate areas your customers expect
  • Zones combine with airport rates and night surcharges in a defined order
  • Change a boundary and the next quote uses it — no republish step
Cabio bookings — every job filterable by status, with import, export and Kanban views
Every booking shows its final fare — zones included — before it's confirmed.
