11.1 Payment & Fare Management
Payment Methods – Pre-Payment & Post-Payment
Yelowsoft provides flexibility in trip billing through two distinct fare models:
- Pre-Payment (Fixed Fare)
- Post-Payment (Dynamic Fare)
These models ensure better payment assurance for the company and transparency for customers.
The Pre-Auth Payment feature allows the system to block an estimated trip fare amount on the customer’s card during booking without charging it immediately. The final payment is captured only after the trip ends, ensuring accurate billing and smooth refund/cancellation handling.
The Split Payment feature allows customers to divide their trip fare into multiple stages instead of paying 100% upfront. Payments can be configured to occur at on-booking, on-pickup, and on-completion stages, giving customers flexibility and reducing hesitation while ensuring businesses secure partial commitments.
