Blinx gives a chauffeur one mobile page where clients can see your fixed prices, message you on WhatsApp, ask for a pick-up time and call you, each in one tap. It costs $5 a month or $46.80 a year, plus VAT at 20% for UK businesses, after a 15-day trial with no card.
Chauffeur work is usually booked ahead: an airport run, a wedding, a day of meetings, a big night out. Clients want to know the price before they commit, see the car, and feel sure the driver will be outside on time.
Many would rather arrange it by message than by a call, so they can send the flight number, the pick-up address and the time in writing and have the answer to hand on the day.
Corporate clients and regulars want something simpler still: the number, and a quick way to book the next journey without explaining everything again.
How a Blinx page helps chauffeurs
WhatsApp with the details
On Pro the WhatsApp button opens a chat with your mobile, so a client can send the flight number and the pick-up address in writing. On the basic plan the button opens your enquiry form instead.
Fixed prices up front
List your airport transfers, hourly rates and wedding packages with their prices, so clients compare before they message.
Pick-up times from the hours you work
Clients ask for a day and a time, and you confirm the journey in your diary on Pro.
The car, shown properly
Photos of the car inside and out in your gallery, the thing clients most want to see before they book.
Call for the last minute
The Call button stays in the bar along the bottom of the screen, for the client whose meeting has just moved.
Filled from Google
Connect your listing to bring in your hours, number, photos and star rating.
Four moments from a working day, each beside the part of the example page it uses.
An airport run arranged on WhatsApp
A client flying out on Monday taps WhatsApp on your page and sends the flight time and the pick-up address. On Pro that is a real chat on your phone, with everything in writing for the day.

Fixed prices before the first message
Your price list shows the airport transfers you do most, an hourly rate and a wedding package. Clients compare before they get in touch, and nobody is surprised by the fare.

A pick-up for the early flight
A client chooses the airport transfer, picks the day and an early time from your working hours and sends the request. You confirm it in your diary on Pro, and they hear back with the time.

The car, before the client books
A wedding couple wants to see what will arrive at the church. Photos of the car in your gallery answer that before they ask.

On Pro, the WhatsApp button opens a chat with the mobile number you give it, so clients can send flight numbers, addresses and times in writing. On the basic plan the button opens your enquiry form instead, and the message waits in your inbox.
Can I show fixed prices for airport transfers?
Yes. Your price list shows each journey or package with its price, such as a transfer to the nearest airport, an hourly rate or a wedding package. Change the prices whenever you need to, and they change on the page at once.
Can clients ask for a very early pick-up?
Booking requests follow your working hours, so set the hours you take pick-ups, early mornings included. Each request waits until you confirm it, which is part of Pro, and the client hears back with the time once you do.
Can I take a deposit through the page?
No. There is no online payment or deposit on Blinx. Clients pay you the way they do today; the page is where they see your prices and get in touch.
Can I show that I am licensed and insured?
Yes, as trust points under your name and in your About text. Blinx shows what you write and does not check it, so keep to the licences and cover you hold.
Will my Google reviews show?
Yes, once you connect your Google listing: your star rating and the first three reviews Google shows, in Google's order, with a link to the rest on Google. Blinx never writes, edits or chooses them.
