Airport transfers, hotel shuttles, cruise port transfers, corporate transportation and group transportation — one booking site, one dispatch board, one driver app. $99/mo flat, 0% commission, live in 3–5 working days.
Shuttle software in Melbourne costs $99–$349 a month flat with a one-time setup fee of $299–$699 and 0% booking commission. Shuttle.Software covers Melbourne Tullamarine (MEL) and Avalon (AVV) arrivals, hotel shuttles, cruise port transfers, corporate contracts and group bookings on one dispatch board, and operators go live in 3–5 working days.
Melbourne operators run five different jobs off one fleet: MEL and AVV airport transfers, hotel shuttles for properties in the CBD, Southbank, St Kilda and Docklands, cruise port transfers to Station Pier in Port Melbourne, corporate transportation for CBD offices, Monash and Clayton employers on staff-transport runs, and group transportation for the Australian Open, Grand Prix, Melbourne Cup and conference blocks. Shuttle.Software treats each as its own bookable product with its own rates, capacity rules and landing page, while dispatch, driver app, live flight tracking and invoicing stay in one place. Payments settle in AUD, taxes are applied per pickup location, and accounts are billed monthly rather than per booking.
Live arrival tracking for Melbourne Tullamarine (MEL) and Avalon (AVV). When an inbound slips, the pickup time, driver manifest and passenger SMS update automatically. Sell per seat on a shared van or per vehicle for private jobs, with terminal-specific meeting-point instructions sent to every passenger.
Fixed-headway loops and on-demand pickups for properties across the CBD, Southbank, St Kilda and Docklands. Front desk gets its own login to book a guest in seconds, guests track the vehicle on a branded page with no app download, and each property is invoiced monthly on its agreed rate.
Sailing-day transfers to Station Pier in Port Melbourne. Hard boarding cut-offs, luggage counts, group references and ship-arrival surges are handled as scheduled departures rather than individual jobs, so a turnaround day does not need a dispatcher on the phone.
Contracted work for CBD offices, Monash and Clayton employers on staff-transport runs: account logins, agreed rate cards, cost centres, purchase-order references, on-time-arrival reporting and one consolidated monthly invoice instead of a card charge per ride.
Group bookings for the Australian Open, Grand Prix, Melbourne Cup and conference blocks. One reference holds every passenger, vehicles are allocated by seat count and luggage, multi-vehicle convoys share a manifest, and the organiser gets a single quote, a single payment link and a single passenger list.
Each becomes a priced, bookable product with its own landing page, schema markup and rate rules.

Melbourne's event calendar is the demand curve — Grand Prix and Australian Open weeks need temporary drivers, extra vans and event-specific pickup zones, then it all comes back down. Vehicle-band pricing means you scale drivers and bookings without a plan change, at a flat monthly fee with 0% commission.
A 20-minute walkthrough on your own routes — booking widget, dispatch board, driver app and a delayed inbound re-timing itself.
$99 a month for 1–3 vehicles, $199 for 4–12 and $349 for 13–30, plus a one-time setup fee of $299, $499 or $699 depending on plan. There is 0% booking commission and no per-driver fee, so hiring for a busy season in Melbourne does not change your monthly bill.
