YOUR BUSINESS IS MORE THAN THE VEHICLE

YOU CAN DRIVE THE TRIP. BUT WHO IS FINDING IT?

Running a long-distance travel business isn't just about getting behind the wheel.

You have to get your business in front of people, explain what you offer, keep your availability up to date, answer enquiries, confirm bookings, organise trip information and keep customers in the loop.

The journey might be simple.

The business around the journey is where things can get complicated.

BEFORE YOU GO?

Here are some of the things travellers and operators want to know before using OpenRoute.

What is OpenRoute?

OpenRoute gives long-distance travel businesses a digital place to present their services, reach customers, receive bookings and manage important business activity in one place.

Who can register as a driver or operator?

OpenRoute is designed for independent drivers, 7-seater operators, transport businesses, trip operators and other businesses providing eligible long-distance travel services.

Is OpenRoute a driving job?

No. OpenRoute is not asking you to drive for OpenRoute. You register your own transport business and use OpenRoute to present and manage the services your business provides.

Do I have to work for OpenRoute?

No. You remain an independent business. OpenRoute provides the digital tools and customer-facing system around your travel services while you continue operating your own business.

Can I use OpenRoute if I already have customers?

Yes. OpenRoute does not require you to replace the customers or channels you already have. You can continue using your existing phone, WhatsApp, social media, referrals and other channels while giving your business another way to be discovered and booked.

What can I do after registering my business?

Depending on your account and approved setup, you can create and manage your travel services, set prices and availability, manage bookings, view booking activity and manage relevant earnings and payout information.

Can I choose my own prices?

Yes. Your travel services can be listed with the pricing you set, subject to OpenRoute's applicable rules and requirements.

Can I control when my service is available?

Yes. You can manage the availability and scheduling information for the services you offer so customers see the information that applies to your business.

How do customers find my business?

Customers can discover available travel services on OpenRoute and review important information such as destinations, dates, pricing and other details before making a booking.

How do bookings reach me?

Customers book through OpenRoute, and the booking activity is reflected in your operator account so you can manage the bookings connected to your business.

Do I need any licences or permits?

You are responsible for meeting the legal and regulatory requirements that apply to your particular transport service. The requirements can differ depending on the type of service and where and how you operate.

Is OpenRoute only for one type of journey?

No. OpenRoute is focused on long-distance travel and can support different eligible travel services, including services provided by independent drivers, transport operators and trip businesses.

Can I manage my business from my phone?

The operator system is designed to give you access to your business tools through the web, so you can manage your account and booking activity without needing a separate physical office.
