About this tool

Responsive booking form for passenger details, pickup and dropoff addresses, date and time, luggage, passengers, flight number and notes. French address suggestions backed by IGN / Géoplateforme without requiring an API key. Keyboard, mouse and touch-friendly suggestion selection with manual entry always available. Browser autofill support for contact details. Each request is stored in a dedicated WordPress table. Configurable delivery to the TaxiAppli connector or directly to a dispatch e-mail address using SMTP or Mailgun. HTTPS server-to-server transmission with secrets never exposed in the form. Unique request references and retry logic to avoid duplicate submissions. Admin dashboard with counters, search, filters, detail views, retry actions and CSV export. Requests are queued for confirmation of availability and fare by the dispatch office. No payment is collected and no driver is assigned automatically. External services TaxiAppli: each accepted request is sent to the configured connector URL. The payload includes passenger details, itinerary, date/time, passenger count, luggage count, flight number and notes. The TaxiAppli server must be running the provided connector and have an active subscription for the dispatch office. IGN / Géoplateforme: if address autocomplete is enabled, after 3 characters and 350 ms of inactivity, the browser sends the search text to https://data.geopf.fr/geocodage/completion/. The service also receives the browser IP address. No TaxiAppli key, name, phone number or email is sent. No call is made when the feature is disabled. Suggestions cover France and may include stations and airports. Manual entry remains available if the service fails. SMTP: when e-mail delivery is selected, booking details are sent from the WordPress server to the configured SMTP provider and recipient(s). The provider may be any SMTP-compatible mail service. SMTP credentials are stored in the WordPress options and are never exposed in the form. Mailgun: alternatively, booking details are sent from the WordPress server to the Mailgun API endpoint for the selected US or EU region. The API key and domain are stored in WordPress and are never exposed in the form. Documentation: https://cartes.gouv.fr/aide/fr/guides-utilisateur/utiliser-les-services-de-la-geoplateforme/autocompletion/ Operation Departure dates are interpreted in Europe/Paris, including daylight saving changes. Minimum delay: 15 minutes; horizon: 12 months. Up to five automatic transmission attempts are allowed. Retries depend on WP-Cron; configure a server cron job if needed. An administrator may retry a failed request manually. Old requests that were not received by TaxiAppli should be processed manually by the office. Data and settings are preserved when the plugin is deactivated or deleted. Manage retention according to your site privacy policy and internal procedures. The secret key is stored in WordPress options; protect backups and access to the database. Third-party services This plugin uses the following external services to provide taxi booking functionality. 1. TaxiAppli – Booking request transmission Service: TaxiAppli – Taxi dispatch and reservation management. Purpose: Transmit taxi booking requests from the WordPress website to the TaxiAppli dispatch office for processing, availability confirmation and fare quotation. Data transmitted: * Passenger name * Phone number * Email address * Pickup and destination addresses * Requested pickup date and time * Number of passengers and luggage items * Flight number, if provided * Additional booking notes * Unique booking reference When data is transmitted: Data is transmitted when a visitor submits a valid booking request through the reservation form. Failed transmissions may be retried automatically or manually by an administrator. How data is transmitted: Requests are transmitted server-to-server over HTTPS to the TaxiAppli connector URL configured by the website administrator. Authentication uses a secret key stored on the WordPress server and never exposed to visitors. Service provider: TaxiAppli Service website: https://taxiappli.com/ Booking information is processed by the TaxiAppli dispatch office responsible for handling the reservation. 2. IGN / Géoplateforme – Address autocomplete Service: Géoplateforme address autocomplete, provided by IGN (Institut national de l’information géographique et forestière). Purpose: Suggest French addresses, railway stations and airports while visitors enter pickup or destination locations. Service endpoint: https://data.geopf.fr/geocodage/completion/ Data transmitted: * Text entered in the pickup or destination address field * Visitor IP address, as part of the HTTPS connection No passenger name, phone number, email address or TaxiAppli authentication key is transmitted to this service. When data is transmitted: Only when address autocomplete is enabled by the website administrator and a visitor enters at least three characters into an address field. Requests are sent after approximately 350 milliseconds of inactivity. How data is transmitted: The visitor’s browser sends HTTPS requests directly to the Géoplateforme autocomplete service. If autocomplete is disabled, no requests are sent to this service. Visitors can always enter addresses manually. Service provider: IGN – Institut national de l’information géographique et forestière Service documentation: https://cartes.gouv.fr/aide/fr/guides-utilisateur/utiliser-les-services-de-la-geoplateforme/autocompletion/ Privacy information: https://www.ign.fr/institut/donnees-caractere-personnel 3. SMTP or Mailgun – E-mail delivery (optional) Service: The SMTP provider configured by the website administrator, or Mailgun when its API is selected. Purpose: Deliver booking requests directly to the configured dispatch e-mail recipient(s) instead of sending them to the TaxiAppli connector. Data transmitted: Passenger name, phone number, e-mail address, itinerary, requested date and time, passenger and luggage counts, flight number, additional notes and booking reference. When data is transmitted: When a visitor submits a valid booking request and the administrator has selected e-mail delivery. Failed attempts may be retried automatically or manually. How data is transmitted: SMTP connections use the configured host, port and encryption settings. Mailgun requests use HTTPS to the selected regional API endpoint. Credentials are stored on the WordPress server and are not included in the booking form. The website administrator is responsible for selecting a provider and recipient(s), reviewing their privacy terms and informing visitors about this data transfer. Privacy considerations Website administrators are responsible for informing visitors about the processing and transmission of personal data through their website privacy policy. Booking requests are stored in the WordPress database and transmitted using the delivery method selected by the administrator: the TaxiAppli connector or the configured e-mail provider and recipient(s). The plugin does not collect online payments and does not automatically assign drivers. Website administrators should define appropriate data retention periods and ensure that their use of these services complies with applicable privacy regulations, including the GDPR. When e-mail delivery is selected, the administrator is responsible for the chosen SMTP or Mailgun provider and configured recipient(s). Abonnement SMTP (version 1.5.0) L’envoi SMTP nécessite une licence par site à 19 EUR par mois, gérée sur https://taxiappli.com/abonnement-smtp/. La clé et l’URL du site sont transmises au service de licences pour vérifier les droits. Les réservations restent conservées si la licence est inactive. Mailgun et le connecteur TaxiAppli ne sont pas soumis à ce contrôle.
