Most shuttle enquiries now start on WhatsApp, and most of them are lost because nobody replies fast enough. The Shuttle.Software WhatsApp booking bot answers instantly, asks the six questions that matter — pickup, drop-off, date and time, passengers, luggage and flight number — prices the trip from your own rate table, sends a secure payment link and drops a confirmed reservation onto your dispatch board. It works in seven languages, remembers returning passengers, links airport pickups to live flight data, and hands the chat to a human the moment a conversation needs one. Your number, your brand, your rules — running 24 hours a day.

Everything included

Features built for this operation

24/7 automated replies

Every enquiry gets an answer in seconds, including nights, weekends and public holidays.

Instant quotes from your rates

The bot prices zone, distance, per-seat and hourly jobs from the same rate table your website uses.

Pay-by-link in chat

Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay and local methods; the booking confirms only once payment or the deposit clears.

Flight-linked pickups

Send a flight number and the bot re-times the pickup automatically, then WhatsApps the new time.

Seven languages

English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian and Arabic — it replies in the language it is written to.

One-click human handover

Complex or high-value chats route to a live agent in the back office, then return to the bot.

Tracking links in chat

Driver assigned, on the way and two-minutes-out messages with a live tracking link attached.

Repeat-booking shortcuts

Returning passengers can rebook a saved trip by replying with a single word.

How it works

From booking to drop-off in four steps

01

Passenger messages your number

From your website widget, a QR code, a Google listing or a saved contact — no app install required.

02

Bot qualifies and quotes

Six structured questions, an instant price from your rate table, and upsells like extra luggage or a child seat.

03

Payment link and confirmation

A secure link is sent in chat; on payment the passenger receives a booking reference and receipt.

04

Straight to dispatch

The reservation lands on the board with capacity checked, ready for automatic or manual driver assignment.

Frequently asked questions

What is a WhatsApp booking bot?

It is an automated WhatsApp conversation that takes a shuttle booking end to end — pickup, drop-off, date, time, passengers, luggage and payment — and writes it straight into your dispatch board as a confirmed reservation, 24/7, without a human replying.

Do I need my own WhatsApp Business number?

You can use your existing WhatsApp Business number or we can provision a new one on the WhatsApp Business API. Either way the chat shows your brand name and logo, not ours.

Can a human take over the conversation?

Yes. Any chat can be handed to a live agent in one click from the back office, and the bot steps aside until the agent releases it back.

Does it handle payments inside WhatsApp?

Yes — the bot sends a secure payment link (card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and local methods where available). The booking only confirms once payment or a deposit clears, and we take 0% commission.

Which languages does the bot speak?

English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian and Arabic out of the box, and it replies in whichever language the passenger writes in.

Does it track flights like the rest of the platform?

Yes. If the passenger sends a flight number, the bot links the booking to that flight and WhatsApps the passenger automatically when the pickup time shifts.

How much does the WhatsApp booking bot cost?

It is included in the $99/month flat plan with a one-time $299 setup. WhatsApp's own per-conversation messaging fees are billed at cost by Meta.

How long does setup take?

3–5 working days, including number verification, your booking rules, pricing table and message templates.
