Checked against Pop Dispatch 0.1.0

Your server publishes a booking page at its public address followed by /ride. A rider opens it on any phone or computer with no install, confirms an email with a code, and books a taxi. The trip appears on the Taxi board and is offered to drivers like any other trip.

Steps #

  1. An owner or a manager ticks "Let riders book on the public page" under Taxi, Rates and settings, Dispatch settings, "Public booking page".
  2. The rider opens (your public address)/ride, confirms the email, and fills in the pick-up, the drop-off, the time and the passengers.
  3. The trip appears in Waiting, or in Later for a pre-booked trip. The rider gets a trip page that follows the driver and the arrival time.

The same server serves the tracking link for a tow and the estimate approval link for the shop.
