TransitQuote Pro 4.3.1 – Holiday Rates

Posted on June 13, 2019 by - Blog, Release, WordPress Plugin

TransitQuote Pro Holiday Rates

The latest version of TransitQuote Pro can now adjust your delivery or transportation price quote depending on the booking date and time.

This new feature allows your company to vary your prices if bookings fall on:

  • Holiday dates (these can be defined in the WordPress dashboard)
  • Weekends
  • Out of Hours (bookings made for times outside of your booking start time and booking end time)

Enabling Holiday, Weekend and Out Of Hours Charging

Using the new rates is optional. To enable them just tick the appropriate boxes on the Quote Options page.

Enable or Disable the new options as required.

Setting Rates in the WordPress Dashboard

Setting up you rates is done in the Rates tab of the TransitQuote Pro settings. For every combination of vehicle and service you can set the new rates in addition to our normal options of providing quote based on:

  • Per mile or km cost
  • Set price for journeys up to a certain distance
  • Price per hour
Adding an additional set price to your automatic quote calculation depending on booking date and time.

The new rates apply to the same distance boundaries as the rates for normal business hours.

This means that if you charge a different rate for journeys between – for example – 50 miles and 100 miles, you can adjust your rate for weekends, evenings and holidays specific to journeys of this distance.

Setting Up Holiday Dates

You choose which days of they year are holiday days.

Simply select the first and last day of each holiday period. You can add as many holiday periods as suits your business.

For single days just set the start and end date to the same day.

Add any number of holiday dates during which your holiday rates will apply.
