Bus booking system

• keyboard_arrow_downHow does Anolla bus booking software differ from standard bus timetable systems?
  Standard bus booking calendars only offer timetable scheduling. Anolla is a comprehensive all-in-one revenue-growing bus booking and transport management platform for scheduled services, charter trips, and coach companies. The platform combines ticket sales, passenger management (CRM), route planning, and automated communication. Unlike static bus timetables, Anolla uses AI to optimize occupancy and routes. Anolla supports dynamic ticket pricing based on demand and season. The system enables you to manage short hourly trips, day-based travel packages, and multi-day bus tours simultaneously in a single platform.
• keyboard_arrow_downDoes Anolla support hourly, daily and multi-day bus bookings at the same time?
  Yes, this is one of the main competitive advantages of Anolla’s bus booking software. Unlike many ticketing and reservation systems, Anolla does not force a bus company to choose only one transport model. The platform simultaneously supports hourly city routes, daily excursions and multi-day tourist trips. You can also manage charter services and tailor-made trips with variable duration. All bus bookings are combined into one central transport calendar, which runs in parallel under a single carrier account. Anolla is ideal for hybrid business models such as scheduled lines, charter buses, tourist trips and special transport services.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow does the Anolla AI assistant reduce the administrative workload and human booking errors for bus companies?
  Anolla’s automated passenger support AI assistant operates 24/7 both on the bus booking page and in customer channels. The smart helper automatically resolves up to 79.3%¹ of all standard passenger enquiries, such as departure times, ticket changes, seat availability and booking confirmations. The assistant covers up to 52.4%¹ of first-line technical support questions without dispatcher or customer service involvement. Automated passenger communication reduces the bus operator’s administration time by up to 39.3%¹, minimizing double bookings, mistakes with departure times and ticket management errors. The result is a lower administrative load and significantly fewer human booking errors throughout the transport process.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow does Anolla’s dynamic ticket pricing help bus companies offer passengers optimized fares?
  Anolla's dynamic ticket pricing module automates a bus company's pricing strategy across the entire route network. The dispatcher can create detailed pricing rules based on departure time, day of the week, season, route, occupancy and customer segments. All ticket price changes happen automatically according to business rules, without manually updating price lists. The system helps sell low-demand departures at cheaper prices, increasing occupancy during off-peak times. During rush hours and on popular routes, dynamic pricing enables you to earn maximum ticket revenue. The strategy’s goal is to increase both seat occupancy and the overall profitability of the bus fleet at the same time.
• keyboard_arrow_downIs Anolla suitable both for a single minibus and for a multi-location bus company?
  Yes, Anolla bus booking software is designed to scale for transport operators of any size. A small business with a single bus or minibus can start with a powerful free plan to automate online seat bookings and ticket sales. Larger bus companies and groups with multiple depots and locations benefit from a centralized transport management dashboard. The platform lets you add unlimited fleets, routes, departures and users, including planners, dispatchers and customer support agents. The system provides flexible role- and location-based access control (RBAC), so each employee sees only the routes, departures and reports relevant to their tasks.
• keyboard_arrow_downWhich tools and payment solutions does the Anolla bus booking software integrate with?
  Anolla is built with an API-first architecture and supports the main integrations bus companies require. For online ticket sales and paying for bookings, there is a direct integration with the Stripe payment solution, enabling secure card payments and recurring payments in loyalty programmes. The software supports analytics integrations: Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel to measure booking page conversions and ticket sales campaign performance. Data can be exported to BI/ML tools to analyse fleet utilisation, route profitability and ticket price performance. Additionally, the platform includes a powerful API and integrations with other transport management, accounting, CRM and marketing automation systems.
• keyboard_arrow_downWhat does the free package include and what do the paid features add for a bus company?
  The free plan includes all the core tools needed to start online bus bookings, ticket sales and timetable management. It’s ideal for independent bus operators, small coach companies and new route providers. Paid features add unlimited automation across the entire booking chain, advanced integrations with fleet-management and accounting platforms, and loyalty programs for repeat passengers. Paid modules also unlock extended reporting on fleet occupancy, route profitability and ticket revenue optimization.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow does Anolla’s usage-based pricing help reduce the business risk of a bus company?
  Anolla’s usage-based pricing model is designed to reduce the business risks of bus companies. Scheduled service operators, charter providers and tourist coach operators do not have to pay high fixed monthly booking software fees during low seasons or periods of reduced demand. Platform costs always scale in proportion to the actual volume of bookings and ticket sales processed. This makes the solution particularly suitable for seasonal coach operators, school transport, event shuttles and other carriers whose demand fluctuates according to time and events.
• keyboard_arrow_downHow quickly can I get my bus company running with Anolla booking software?
  Getting started with Anolla bus booking software usually takes just a few minutes, and a 24/7 context-aware AI assistant guides you through the entire setup process. The smart setup guide helps you step by step to create bus routes, departure times, ticket types, seat maps and booking rules. The platform’s ease of use is rated 5/5¹ on Capterra, meaning that most dispatchers and booking specialists learn the basic functions of the booking calendar, ticket sales and reporting in under 30 minutes¹.
• keyboard_arrow_downWhat makes Anolla's bus booking platform a future-proof solution?

The cloud-based solution evolves continuously with AI-driven learning and data-driven ticket price optimization.
