Booking

One booking system. Built around how each person actually reaches us.

Whether a booking comes from a hospital ward on an account reference, an NDIS client, a private paying customer, or the driver on the road — everyone gets the access method that actually suits them. Nothing needs a login, an app download, or training.

01 — How the provider actually accesses us

Hospital & aged care staff.

No portal, no login — this is a work-order relationship, the same way transport is arranged with any contracted supplier. It's a two-step process: set up the account once, then every booking after that is just a phone call or email.

Step 1 — Once, when we onboard the facility
  • A simple Service Agreement is signed between Wheely Good Rides and the facility (Broome Hospital / KACS / BRAMS)
  • The facility is issued an account reference number
  • No login, no app, nothing to install. Just quote the reference.
  • Rates and invoicing terms (weekly or monthly, on account) are agreed up front
Step 2 — Every booking after that
  • Ward or coordinator calls or emails, quoting the account reference
  • Gives client name, pickup/dropoff, and time — same as calling any transport supplier
  • Also worth mentioning: wheelchair/mobility device width, whether a companion is travelling, and any access notes (stairs, ward level, etc.) — saves a surprise at pickup
  • Booking is logged straight into the driver's schedule
Why this way, not a web portal

This mirrors how established NDIS transport providers (13cabs Travel Accounts, Accessible Transport, and others) actually operate — an account set up once via agreement, then simple phone/email bookings against a reference number. No new system for busy ward staff to learn, and no privacy/security review needed before a health service can use it.

Invoicing

Invoiced against the account on agreed terms — reconciles against the facility's own PO/reference, nothing for staff to chase per trip.

Remote community & PATS clients

Clients travelling in from Bidyadanga, Beagle Bay, Djarindjin, Lombadina, One Arm Point and other Kimberley communities under PATS often need pickup from Broome patient accommodation rather than a home address — booked by BRAMS/KAMS, WACHS discharge staff, or a PATS coordinator on the client's behalf, same account-reference process as any facility.

Funding we accept

NDIS (plan or self-managed), PTSS card, facility account, DVA Repatriation Transport Scheme (Gold/White card), Regional Pensioner Travel Card (via Cabcharge), private card payment, and corporate account.

02 — What the client sees

NDIS & plan-managed clients.

Same simple booking screen the public uses — but funding source is selected up front, and the invoice goes straight to the plan manager instead of the client's card. No surprise bills.

  • Choose NDIS plan, self-fund, or PTSS at the top
  • Fare auto-calculates using the correct support rate
  • Plan manager is billed directly — client sees $0 due
  • Chair width and access notes captured up front — no surprises at the curb
  • Driver already knows to assist with transfer and wheelchair securing

The end goal

Every touchpoint should feel like "wow, even taxis don't do that."

Being small is the advantage, not the limitation — here's where that shows up.

Never re-explain your needs

Wheelchair type, preferred transfer side, hoist or manual — saved once, remembered every trip. No re-explaining yourself to a stranger each time.

The same trusted driver

One or two vans means regulars get a familiar face, not a random stranger — genuinely reassuring when physical assistance is involved.

The return trip, already sorted

After a hospital drop-off: "Want us to collect you again? Just reply with a time." No one left stranded at an appointment.

Standing bookings

Dialysis three times a week, therapy every Tuesday — set up once, never book again.

No card fumbling at the door

Payment's sorted in the background — NDIS, facility account, or card on file — so nobody's juggling a wheelchair transfer and a card reader at once.

A real person always answers

Even at 9pm for a hospital discharge — no "no drivers available" moment leaving someone stranded.

PTSS applied invisibly

The subsidy is handled at the driver's end, not paperwork the client has to sort out afterward.

A plain weekly summary, for facilities

Trips run, on-time rate, invoiced against the account — no chasing, no radio silence, unlike most transport suppliers.

...and that's what makes us Wheely Good.

How the system manages it all

Four front doors. One engine. Four correct invoices.

No matter which screen a booking comes from, it lands in the same place — so the driver never has to think about who's paying, and nobody on the other end has to chase anything down.
