TaxiMeter Pro is a free, browser-based GPS taxi fare calculator that uses your device's built-in location services to track your journey in real time. There is no app to download and no account required β simply open the page, set your fare rates, and press Start Ride.
Your browser's Geolocation API provides real-time position updates. TaxiMeter Pro uses the Haversine formula to calculate the exact distance traveled between each GPS fix, filtering out noise from GPS jitter under 5 meters.
The map is powered by OpenStreetMap and the Leaflet.js library. Your route is drawn on the map as a live polyline so you can see exactly where you have traveled throughout the ride.
Set your own base fare, per-kilometer rate, and per-minute rate. The fare is recalculated every second and displayed in large, easy-to-read digits both on the panel and on the live map badge.
When you stop the ride, a full breakdown receipt is generated showing the base fare, distance charge, time charge, total distance traveled, and total fare β all in one place.
All GPS data is processed locally in your browser. Your location is never sent to any server, stored in any database, or shared with any third party. The map tiles are fetched directly from OpenStreetMap's servers.
TaxiMeter Pro is fully responsive and works on smartphones, tablets, and desktops. Any modern browser with GPS support β Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge β is supported out of the box.
The fare is calculated using a standard taxi metering formula:
Total Fare = Base Fare + (Distance in km Γ Rate per km) + (Duration in minutes Γ Rate per minute)
This formula mirrors the metering logic used by most licensed taxi companies worldwide, making TaxiMeter Pro suitable for drivers, passengers, and fleet operators who need a transparent, verifiable fare reference.
TaxiMeter Pro was built to give passengers, independent drivers, and small taxi operators a free, reliable, and transparent fare calculation tool that works without any subscription, registration, or app installation.
Taxi and rideshare passengers often wonder whether the fare on the meter matches the actual distance traveled. TaxiMeter Pro solves this problem by giving passengers an independent, GPS-verified fare reading on their own device, calculated in real time using the same mathematical model used by professional taxi meters.
Taxi drivers and operators can use TaxiMeter Pro as a backup meter, a training tool for new drivers, or a simple way to provide a digital receipt to passengers. The customizable fare settings allow drivers to input their local regulatory tariff so the numbers exactly match the official meter.
Yes. TaxiMeter Pro is completely free to use. There are no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, and no premium tiers.
No. GPS data is processed entirely inside your browser and is never transmitted to any server. When you close the tab, all data is discarded.
Accuracy depends on your device's GPS hardware and signal quality. TaxiMeter Pro filters out GPS position jumps smaller than 5 meters to reduce the effect of GPS noise. In open-sky conditions with a modern smartphone, accuracy is typically within 5β10 meters.
Yes. TaxiMeter Pro works on Safari on iOS. Make sure location access is enabled for your browser in your iPhone's Settings app under Privacy & Security β Location Services.
The fare is displayed in whatever currency you enter in the settings. The dollar sign ($) is used as a generic symbol β you can treat it as representing your local currency (rupee, euro, pound, etc.).
