Fusion Link vs. Onde
Nobody counts your cars. One of us counts your fares.
Onde makes the same argument we do about metering: no fleet size limits, no restriction on orders, no charge per vehicle or per driver. Then it takes a percentage of every fare on top of a one-time fee that starts at US$4,500. Fusion Link charges a flat amount per completed job, and never a share of what your client pays.
£0.30 per completed job, whatever the fare. Nothing up front.
Public plans: Starting Up US$4,500 one-time + $99/mo, Professional $8,500 + $99, Expert $23,000 + $99, Super App $6,500 + $259 — each plus a percentage of the trip cost. Onde.Light starts from $12/mo with 1,000 free rides and 1.9% after that.
The reasons that come up every time.
A flat fee, not a share of the fare
Onde's plans add a percentage of the trip cost on top of the monthly fee. That means an airport job at four times the price costs you four times as much to run. Fusion Link charges the same £0.30 on a short hop and on a full-day charter.
Nothing to pay before the first job
Onde's published ladder starts at US$4,500 as a one-time fee and reaches $23,000. Fusion Link asks for nothing to set up — you fund a prepaid wallet, and the first debit happens when a job exists.
Built for chauffeur work, not for ride-hailing
Onde is a ride-hailing product: an order, a nearby driver, a wallet. Chauffeur work is booked days ahead against a flight number, a named passenger and an agreed rate, and Fusion Link is shaped for that — flight tracking, meet-and-greet, corporate accounts and invoicing.
The books come with it
Fusion Link posts every invoice, client payment, driver payout, wallet top-up and job fee as a journal entry, with a trial balance and a period close. Onde's public pages describe an in-app wallet and reports, not a general ledger.

Onde reaches operators in the UK. Says 400+ companies run on it and sells for any language and any location. It names no country.
An operator launching a consumer ride-hailing service under their own brand, where the passenger app is the product. Onde ships that end to end — branded passenger, driver and operator apps — and genuinely charges nothing per vehicle or per driver. Their entry tier asks for no setup fee at all, which is a real answer to the one-time fee on the plans above it.
The revenue share is the problem, and the percentage is not published on the pricing page for the main plans. A cut of the fare scales with your prices rather than with the work the software did, and it is the one charge an operator cannot cap. The one-time fee is also large enough to be a decision of its own.
Common questions.
Onde says it charges nothing per vehicle or per driver. So do you. What is left to compare?
What each of us charges instead. Onde takes a share of every fare on top of its monthly fee, so the bill follows your prices. Fusion Link takes a flat amount per completed job, so a job you priced at four times the rate costs the same to run. On a chauffeur job that difference is the whole comparison.
Their entry product has no setup fee. Is that not the same as your zero?
Close, and worth saying. Onde.Light publishes a small monthly fee, a thousand free rides and 1.9% after that. Fusion Link has no monthly fee for the core system and no percentage at any volume — the flat job fee is the whole charge. Two optional add-ons bill monthly if you switch them on.
Do I have to sign a contract?
No. Fusion Link bills per completed job from a prepaid wallet. You can stop using it any day and owe nothing.
Can I keep my existing clients and branding?
Yes. You get a booking site on your own domain with your logo. We never touch your client relationship.
How long does setting up take?
Minutes, not a migration project. Your operator account, branded booking site, and driver invites all run from one place.
