How CabPass works
Hand over a job in three simple steps
No more lost customers. No more wasted jobs. Just a clean, secure handover between cabbies.
Post it in seconds
Can't do the airport or long-distance journey? Drop the job into CabPass — pickup, destination and fare. Done.
A driver unlocks it
Another licensed London Black Cab driver pays the £20 unlock fee — held securely in escrow — and immediately receives the customer's details.
Everyone wins
Once the journey is completed and confirmed, £10 is released to you and £10 to CabPass. The accepting driver keeps the full fare — no commission.

Built by the trade
Made by a London Black Cab driver
For years, valuable airport and long-distance bookings were handed on informally — to a mate, across a group chat, or simply lost when we couldn't make them. There was no secure way to know the customer was in safe hands, and no fair way to be paid for passing on good work.
The work was good. The customers were loyal. But everything out there was built for passengers, or run by people who've never done the Knowledge. The trade deserved a professional tool of its own.
So CabPass was built by one of our own: a licensed London Black Cab driver who wanted a fair, secure, professional way to keep good work — and good customers — inside the trade.
"If you've ever turned down a Heathrow run and watched a good fare disappear — this was built for you."
The CabPass network, in real time
Once we open the doors, you'll see real jobs flowing through CabPass live. No vanity numbers until then.
