Owner DriversGet paid every day and keep more of every fare
If you own your own Black Cab, CMT gives you one integrated system for card payments, your taximeter, cameras and ARRO jobs, with a team that knows the London trade behind it.
You choose when you are paid, passengers see tipping options that make sense for their fare, and support is a phone call away 24 hours a day, every day of the year.
Why CMT
One proven system built for London Black Cabs, and a team that knows the trade.
Running your own cab should not mean juggling different suppliers for your terminal, your meter, your cameras and your ride hailing work. CMT brings them together in one integrated system, with one support line that is open around the clock.
More from every fare
What CMT does for owner drivers, from the first tap of a card to the money in your account.
Paid every day
Choose your payment schedule: once a week, twice a week or our popular 7 day pay, including weekends and bank holidays.
Your fares honoured
CMT honours fares regardless of chargebacks, and in most cases we pay drivers before we receive the funds from the card acquirer.
Higher tips
Clear, intuitive tipping prompts on a large colour touchscreen, designed to maximise your earnings.
No lost fares
Payments are captured securely even when the signal drops, and processed automatically once connectivity returns.
Fully integrated with your meter
Stop the meter and the fare passes straight to the terminal in the passenger compartment. No re-keying and no disputes over the amount.
Compliant through to 2032
The PAX A35 is PCI approved until April 2032, so you will not face a forced hardware change when older terminals lose their approval in April 2027.
Extra work from ARRO
Ride hailing jobs arrive on your in-vehicle tablet. You keep the whole meter fare.
Know where the work is
CMT’s business intelligence produces waiting time data for taxi ranks and streets, so you can position yourself where the work is.
