How much will my taxi cost? You naturally want clarity on the fare, especially in these times. That’s why Staxi applies fixed prices for every taxi ride you book with us.
You can calculate the costs for your taxi through our online taxi fare finder or use the Staxi App to find the price.

When it comes to taxi costs, there’s a crucial difference between a pre-booked taxi and one hailed on the street. You’ll always pay a metered rate if you flag down a driver at a taxi stand or on the street. The costs only become apparent upon reaching your destination. However, you’ll know the exact fare upfront when you pre-book your taxi with Staxi.
How much does a taxi cost without a reservation?
Does this sound familiar? You get in a taxi and state your destination. The driver starts the taximeter. However, it doesn’t begin at a friendly €0; there’s already a few euros on it before you’ve driven an inch!
For every kilometer, the meter charges more than €2.50, plus a per-minute rate. The price seems to escalate rapidly, which can be pretty surprising.
Metered pricing is mandatory if you haven’t pre-booked. That’s why we can only provide a fixed price if you reserve your taxi with us. Book a Staxi, and you’ll know what you’ll pay before the journey starts.
Pre-booking saves you a lot of money. Take a look at these example calculations:
Kurhaus, Scheveningen to Schiphol
> Meter Rate: from €167.37
> With Staxi: €109.75
Schiphol to Hilversum Media Park
> Meter Rate: from €154.86
> With Staxi: €74.50
Amsterdam Centraal to Rotterdam Centraal
> Meter Rate: from €270.01
> With Staxi: €147.75
In the table below, you’ll find the data that the taximeter uses to determine the fare.
| Vehicle type | Initial fee | Cost per km | Cost per minute | Waiting rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sedan | € 4.02 | € 2.96 | € 0.49 | € 55.35/hour |
| Minibus taxi | € 8.17 | € 3,72 | € 0.55 | € 55.35/hour |

Staxi’s Flex Fare
Similar to a flight or hotel booking, the price of a taxi ride can fluctuate. That is due to demand and supply; quieter times mean more affordable rides.
Our peak and off-peak hours are dynamic, so a trip at 1:00 PM may be cheaper than during the morning rush hour. What is always 100% certain when booking a Staxi is that the price you see is also the price you pay. Our rate is all-in, without surprises or extra costs.
Book a fixed-price taxi
After calculating the taxi costs, booking your fixed-priced taxi takes just one more step. Quickly pay through our booking form or the taxi app using familiar methods like iDeal, PayPal, or your credit card. It’s a breeze!
Would you prefer personal contact? Call us up or send a WhatsApp message. Our operators will help you on your way. With Staxi, you always have 100% certainty about the costs!
Did you know you can also book a ride with a stopover? Cost-effective and eco-friendly! Our taxi calculator shows the costs for the entire journey from A to Z. You only pay for the distance travelled; we don’t charge extra for stopovers.

How much does a taxi cost?
You will get a fixed price when you pre-book a taxi with us. The exact fare depends on several things:
The distance of the ride
Of course, you will pay less for a shorter ride. However, our rate per kilometre decreases as the total distance increases. That is unique because most taxi companies offer a metered fare based on a fixed amount for each kilometre. As a result, you are off cheaper with Staxi than with other taxi companies.
The type of vehicle
A ride in a regular taxi is cheaper than a ride in a taxi van. When you pre-book your taxi with us, the cost difference between a minibus taxi and a sedan is smaller than when you flag down a cab on the street or get in at a taxi rank. In that case, the driver will charge the meter rate, which is more expensive than our fixed rates.
Supply and demand
Just like a plane ticket or a night in a hotel, the fare for the same trip can fluctuate depending on supply and demand. For example: in extreme weather conditions, such as heavy snow, the need for taxi transport increases rapidly, which makes the price rise. The same journey can also be a lot cheaper, for instance, travelling at a quiet time.
As such, Staxi works with peak and off-peak hours. Our software automatically adjusts the fares based on supply and demand. In quiet moments, you will travel even cheaper with Staxi.
Calculate the fare for your taxi rides easily with our taxi fare calculator or via the Staxi App!
How long in advance should I book the taxi?
That depends on the location where you want to be picked up. Usually, there is a minimum booking time of 60 minutes. In some areas, it is longer and in others shorter.
Tip: When you book a taxi with the Staxi App, you can see precisely where the driver is and what time he or she will arrive.
How do I pay for the taxi?
At Staxi, you can pay for your taxi in any way you like. Because we work with fixed prices, it is possible to pre-pay via your trusted payment environment, such as iDeal, Sofort or PayPal. Of course, you can also pay securely online with your credit card. Without extra costs!
