- Amendments have to be recorded only once at LimouRATE and are available in real time for all clients.
- LimouRATE can be accessed via an API by your booking system. Ask your Software supplier to get in conatct with us (Not necessary, if your system is already connected to GNet).

- Requests (emails/calls) for affiliate rates take too much time!
- Reaction time becomes vital for a succesful and timely quote!

- Different ways of calculating rates are needlessly complicating your business!
The solution
- Via LimouRATE you get an one-click access to all actual rates of your affiliates

Your Advantage

- All rates are based on the individual calculation method of your affiliate – no matter how you and your booking system are used to calculating.
- If you are connected to GNet: If your booking system enables you to send data via GNet (i.e. Livery Coach, Fasttrak, Hudson, LimouERP) you can send the rate request easily through your booking system. Followed up by the booking, if your affiliate is also a GNet member.
