Platform
Taximeter integration and fiscal compliance
eCabs Technologies supports fixed prices within municipal tariff corridors and records street-hail trips with a connected taximeter or a built-in digital meter. Integration with HALE and Semitron taximeters is in development, and we are working with the German specialist PTAS to deliver TSE and Krankenfahrten billing.
Built for regulated taxi markets
Taxi markets in Germany, Austria and across Europe set strict rules for meters, receipts and prices. The platform connects to taximeters and tax-authority interfaces so that every trip is recorded and priced the way the local rules require.
HALE and Semitron taximeters
Integration with taximeters from HALE and Semitron, two established taximeter makers in German-speaking markets, is in development. Supported models, functionality and dates are agreed during discovery and implementation, so traditional taxi operators in Germany, Austria and Switzerland can plan around the meters in their vehicles.
Local requirements, with specialist partners
We are working with the German specialist PTAS to deliver TSE and Krankenfahrten (patient-transport billing) functionality and local integrations. That is how we approach localisation: our platform, combined with specialist partners who know the market.
Street-hail trips
Drivers record street-hail trips in the driver app, including the fare and payment method, so street work sits alongside app and phone bookings in reporting and driver accounts. Starting a street-hail trip can trigger a connected HALE or Semitron taximeter through the integration, or a digital meter powered by the platform’s own pricing engine. Volt in Bulgaria, Taxi Fiume in Croatia and our operators in Germany work this way.

Every migration starts with discovery
No two operations are the same. We start by understanding how yours works, then plan the migration with you, tested step by step. That is how Taxi Fiume moved off a system it had used for more than 10 years while staying open 24/7.

FAQ
Taximeter integration: questions operators ask
Does eCabs Technologies work with TSE taximeters in Germany?
Yes. Integration with HALE and Semitron taximeters is in development, and we are working with the German specialist PTAS to deliver TSE functionality and local integrations. German taximeters have needed a certified fiscal security unit since 1 January 2024, and the transition for older INSIKA meters ended on 1 January 2026.
Which taximeters can you connect?
Taximeter integration in DACH markets is part of the platform. We check which devices your fleet uses and how they connect during discovery, before anything changes.
Can we offer fixed prices for pre-booked taxi rides?
Yes. The dispatch portal supports fixed prices within the municipal tariff corridor, which German law has allowed for pre-booked taxi rides since 2021.
Is patient-transport (Krankenfahrten) billing supported?
We are working with the German specialist PTAS to deliver Krankenfahrten billing and the related local integrations. The exact scope and timing are agreed in discovery.
Which fiscal rules apply to our taxis?
It depends on your country and city. Germany requires a TSE fiscal unit on taximeters, Croatia fiscalises every consumer receipt from 2026, and Bulgaria, Romania and Greece each have their own requirements. We map your exact requirements in discovery, before anything goes live.
