Variable Rate per Distance for Different Distance Intervals
In this guide, we will present a pricing rule that varies the rate per kilometer depending on the distance. Whether it’s 10 km or 100 km, the price adapts to the journey’s length.
Example
Important!
If you have already created any price rules, deactivate them (move to the trash) because they may overwrite the final effect.
Case:
A customer requests a ride that covers a distance of 17 kilometers. With the variable rate per distance rule, you apply the rate of 3.20perkilometer.So,thecalculationis3.20 per kilometer. So, the calculation is 3.20perkilometer.So,thecalculationis3.20 x 17 = $54.40.
We need only 1 rule to achieve the intended result.
I will apply the rule to the BMW vehicle, as shown in the screenshots below.
Adding ‘Rule #1’
Step 1
Go to the ‘Pricing Rules’ menu and add a new pricing rule (Add New), I call it ‘Rule #1’.
Step 2
Go to the ‘Conditions’ -> ‘Vehicles’ tab and select the vehicle from the list (in my case “BMW 5 Series Long”).
ScreenshotStep 3
Go to the ‘Conditions’ -> ‘Distance’ tab and set the parameters as shown in the screenshot below:
ScreenshotStep 4
Go to the ‘Prices’ tab and set the ‘Price Source Type’ option to ‘Calculation based on distance (exact range)’. In addition, you should set all price types to ‘- Inherited -‘, so that this rule has no impact (does not reset) the prices in your configuration.
ScreenshotStep 5
Save the rule by clicking ‘Publish’. The rule should look like this:
