- Metered Fare: Your fare runs on the meter and is based on the distance and time travelled. You’ll see the final fare on the meter at the end of your trip.
- Fare Estimate: Our Fare Estimate gives you an idea of what your trip may cost before you book. Your final metered fare can vary depending on traffic, travel time and the route taken.
- Fixed Price: Want to know the price before you ride? Choose Fixed Price when available. Your price is locked in before the trip, so it won’t change if traffic gets busy. 13cabs doesn’t use surge pricing.

How much is a Brisbane taxi fare?
Brisbane taxi fares depend on travel time, distance and toll fees. Because 13cabs never uses surge pricing, your fare is based on actual travel metrics rather than price spikes. This makes us a predictable, reliable alternative to rideshare when demand climbs.
Your fare runs on Queensland Government-regulated rates, a standard base fare plus your distance and time. What you see is what you pay.
