New Travel Fee Features Now Available in Formilae Booking Software

Whether you're a photographer, makeup artist, massage therapist, pet groomer, or any professional on the go, this new feature allows you to automatically calculate and apply travel fees based on your client's location.

What's New?

Formilae now lets you:

• Set a maximum travel distance (in miles) you're willing to go

• Automatically calculate additional fees if the client location exceeds your specified range

• Charge a fixed amount per X number of miles beyond your limit

• Show a clear breakdown of distance and fees during booking

• Reject bookings that fall outside your travel range (if desired)

• Use Google Maps-style address autocomplete to capture accurate client addresses

This opens the door for service businesses to take control of their time, protect their profit margins, and keep travel predictable and billable.

Who Can Use This?

This new feature is perfect for any business that travels to their clients. Here are just a few industries that can benefit:

• Photographers & Videographers

• Mobile Hair Stylists & Makeup Artists

• Massage Therapists

• Mobile Pet Groomers

• Cleaning Services

• Handyman & Repair Services

• Home Inspectors & Real Estate Services

• Mobile Notaries & Delivery Pros

• Doula & Birth Support Workers

• IT Support Technicians

Whether you charge per mile, in blocks (e.g., $10 per 5 miles), or want to restrict bookings by range -- Formilae has you covered.

Integrated Payments with Stripe

As always, Formilae uses Stripe for payment processing, meaning you get:

• Instant deposits directly to your connected bank account

• Full control over deposits, pricing, taxes, and travel fees

• Secure transactions with real-time confirmations

Why This Matters

Travel takes time, gas, and effort -- and now, your pricing can reflect that automatically. This feature empowers small businesses to operate like pros, giving clients a clear picture of what they're paying for, and why.

No more back-and-forth. No more undercharging. Just set it up once, and Formilae does the rest.
