Answer four questions and we build the site
Get a working booking site, with cars, starter prices and a home page, from four answers.
Plan: everyone (trial included)
You do not start from an empty page. You answer four questions, and PingTab builds a whole booking site for you to correct.
The four questions
| Question | What it decides |
|---|---|
| What guests should call you | Your business name, on every page and every message |
| The city you drive from | The headline, the photo, the airport and the starter prices |
| Your WhatsApp number | Where a guest's message goes when they tap WhatsApp on your site |
| What you sell most | What goes first on your home page, and your first look |
Your WhatsApp number starts with the mobile you gave for your trial. Guests call the same number unless you untick Guests call this number too and type another one. A landline is fine for calls.
What you sell most has four choices: Trips out of town, Airport pickups, Tour packages and Local hire by the hour. It only changes the order. You still sell everything else.
What gets built
While you wait, the screen names each part as it is made:
- Your cars. Four vehicle classes, from a small car up to a large SUV, each with a picture. Lesson 4.1 explains classes.
- Your city. It is switched on with five services: airport transfers, one way, round trips, hourly hire and point to point. A local tour and tour packages you add yourself. Lesson 2.1 lists every service.
- Your rate cards. A starter price for each service and car, saved as a draft.
- Your home page. A headline about your city, over a photo of the kind of place it is.
- Your web address. A preview address that works at once.
Then you see "Here is" your business name, with your site beside it.
Two things are not live yet
The prices are drafts. They are our starting guesses, not your prices. Until you publish them, a guest who asks for a fare gets an enquiry form instead. You call them back with a price. Lesson 1.3 is about checking and publishing them.
The address is a preview. Your site works, and you can send the link. But search engines are told to skip it, and it carries a "Preview only" badge until you connect your own domain (lesson 6.6).
Nothing is charged for any of this.

Common questions
I am not ready. Can I come back later?
Yes. Click Skip for now. You can start the same site later from Sell.
I work in more than one city.
Start with the one you drive from most. You add the others under Sell, Where you sell (lesson 3.1).
I do not sell one of the services you switched on.
Switch it off under Sell, What you sell (lesson 2.7). The common services start on, so most operators only take things away.
Can I change my business name or WhatsApp number later?
Yes. Open Settings, then Brand, and click Edit.
