HOW IT WORKS

Travel pricing that flexes to how you work

Build the zones that match your service area, then let Check Cherry do the math on every quote.

Multiple travel zones

Set up as many zones as you need, each with its own rates and rules.

Per-service travel rates

Charge different travel fees by service. A photo booth and a full bar do not cost the same to haul, so price each one for what it really takes to transport.

Free travel radius

Offer travel for free up to a point, then charge for the miles past it.

Per mile or flat fee

Charge by distance or set a single flat rate. Your choice, per zone.

Round-trip or one-way

Bill the drive out, or out and back. You decide how distance is counted.

Custom origin address

Measure from a different starting point per zone, perfect for multiple locations.

Taxable when required

Mark travel taxable where your state or county needs it. Tax is handled for you.

Applied automatically

Travel is added to proposals and self-service bookings with no manual math.

Out-of-area limits

Block bookings outside your zones, or accept them with a heads-up message.
