Built for pre-booked private hire

In England, private hire vehicles must be pre-booked through a licensed operator and cannot ply for hire. Hoppvia fits that model. Customers book in your app and your dispatchers offer the job to a driver. Each booking is saved with its time, pickup, destination, driver and status.

Compete with the big apps under your own name

Customers who book in your app come back to you, not to a marketplace. They get live driver tracking and card payments, just like the big ride-hailing apps. Hoppvia takes no commission on any fare.

One flat price instead of per-vehicle fees

Many UK dispatch systems charge per vehicle each month. Your bill grows with every car you add. Hoppvia Starter is $1,990 a year for up to 50 drivers. Growth is $3,990 a year for up to 200. Trips are unlimited.

Corporate and airport work in the same system

Growth adds scheduled and airport bookings and corporate accounts, so account customers and airport runs sit alongside your everyday bookings.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, answered.

What is the best private hire booking software for UK operators?

It depends on your fleet and how you take bookings. Hoppvia suits UK operators who want their own branded apps with live tracking and card payments. You pay one flat yearly price, with no per-vehicle fees or commission.

How much does Hoppvia cost in the UK?

Starter is $1,990 a year for up to 50 drivers. Growth is $3,990 a year for 51–200 drivers. Both have a one-time setup fee of $499, unlimited trips and 0% commission. Prices are in US dollars and billed yearly.

Does Hoppvia keep a record of each booking?

Yes. Each booking is stored with its time, pickup, destination, driver and trip status in the admin panel. Check your licensing authority's record-keeping conditions and confirm the fields you need in your demo.

Can customers pay by card in the app?

Yes. In-app card payments are included and run through your own payment gateway account, so funds go to your business.

How quickly can a UK operator launch?

Your branded apps are usually submitted to the App Store and Google Play in about a week. Apple and Google then review them, which can take a few more days.

Do I still need a private hire operator licence?

Yes. Hoppvia is software; your business still needs the operator, driver and vehicle licences required by your local council or Transport for London.
