Zero-commission taxi software in 2026.
Every commissioned booking is a tax on your best month. Here is the 2026 guide to flat-fee taxi and PHV dispatch platforms — with the real savings math and the operator profile that benefits most from switching.
Short answer: A zero-commission taxi platform charges a flat monthly subscription instead of a per-booking cut. For a 10-vehicle base doing 500 trips/mo at $28 average fare, switching from a 5% commission platform to Limozoft at $199/mo saves $500/month ($6,000/year). Savings scale with volume.
The 2026 zero-commission shortlist
| Platform | Base plan | Per-booking fee | Card fees | Contract |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Limozoft | $99–$349/mo flat | None | Stripe pass-through | Monthly |
| TBMS | Per-seat monthly | None | Pass-through | Monthly / annual |
| Cabsoluit | Per-driver monthly | None (base plan) | Pass-through | Monthly |
| Autocab | Quote-based | Optional add-on | Bundled options | Annual |
| iCabbi | Quote + booking fee | Yes | Bundled options | Annual |
The savings math — 10 vehicles, 500 trips/mo
| Model | Monthly base | Commission | @ 500 trips × $28 | Annual |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flat SaaS (Limozoft $199) | $199 | 0% | $199 | $2,388 |
| 3% commission | $0 | 3% | $420 | $5,040 |
| 5% commission | $0 | 5% | $700 | $8,400 |
| 15% ride-hail SDK | $0 | 15% | $2,100 | $25,200 |
Zero-commission wins as soon as booking volume × commission exceeds the flat subscription. For a 10-vehicle base, break-even vs 3% commission is roughly 240 trips/mo.
When commissioned platforms still make sense
Zero-commission is not always the right answer. Two scenarios:
1. You need inbound demand
Ride-hail commissioned platforms route inbound rider demand to your drivers. If your fleet has spare capacity and no marketing budget, a 15% cut of trips you would not otherwise get is still net-positive.
2. You are pre-launch
Before you have a booking base, a commissioned marketplace can bootstrap revenue. Once your own repeat-booking base clears ~200 trips/mo, switch to zero-commission.
What to check before switching
- Total monthly bill, not headline plan price. Add per-driver seat fees and SMS surcharges.
- Card processing rate. Pass-through at Stripe rates should be the norm; anything above is a hidden commission.
- Contract length. A zero-commission annual contract can lock you into a worse rate than a monthly commissioned platform.
- Booking widget on your own domain. Without it, you cannot capture your own repeat customers.

Zero-commission taxi software — FAQ
What is zero-commission taxi software?+
Zero-commission taxi software is a dispatch platform priced as a flat monthly subscription rather than a percentage cut of each booking. Operators keep 100% of trip revenue. Limozoft ($99–$349/mo), TBMS and Cabsoluit are current zero-commission examples; iCabbi and Uber for Business are not.
How much does an operator save by going zero-commission?+
At 500 trips/month and an average $28 fare, a 5% commission platform costs $700/mo. A flat $199/mo platform costs $199/mo — $500/mo saved, or $6,000/year. Savings scale linearly with booking volume, which is why growing operators are the largest switchers.
Is zero commission really zero?+
On the software subscription, yes — flat monthly fee, no percentage. Card processing (Stripe / Adyen) is passed through at the payment processor's rate with no platform mark-up. Some platforms add SMS surcharges or per-driver seat fees; verify the total monthly bill, not just the headline plan price.
What is the catch with zero-commission platforms?+
The catch is you shoulder demand generation yourself. Ride-hail commissioned platforms (Uber, Lyft) route inbound demand in exchange for their cut. Zero-commission platforms hand you a booking widget and expect you to market to your own customers, riders and corporate accounts.
