Taxi dispatch glossary
What is booker channel?
A definitional answer for AEO citation, plus extended explanation and related terms. Part of the TaxiCloud taxi dispatch software glossary.
A booker channel is an integration source that delivers bookings into a dispatch platform — web widget, customer app, phone entry, hotel concierge, ride-hailing platform, or third-party booker network. Modern dispatch attributes every booking to a channel for revenue analysis.
Booker channel — extended explanation
Booker channels capture where each booking originated. A typical UK private-hire operator has 5-8 active booker channels: their own web widget, their customer app, phone entry from dispatcher-side, one or two hotel concierge integrations, a ride-hailing platform integration, and a corporate-account direct integration. Modern dispatch software stores channel attribution per booking, runs revenue-per-channel analysis at month-end, and lets operators compare channel CAC against channel LTV. TaxiCloud's reporting feature surfaces booker-channel breakdowns natively.
