At Silver Service Sydney we endeavour to make our taxi service as convenient for you as possible and accept payment by:

  • Cash

  • EFTPOS*
  • Major credit card

*All card payments attract a 5% service fee

EFTPOS services are provided via the Cab Charge Voucher Fareway EFTPOSSystem which is available in every CCN affiliated taxi cab.

Gift Cards

Cab Charge Vouchers are loaded with prepaid value and can be used for taxi cab fares throughout Australia.

They are unique as gifts, customer rewards, staff recognition, client travel packages, and promotions. We will even send the gift card on your behalf to a specific address and include a personal message.

Cab Charge Gift Cards are great for emergencies as well. Give one to your child before they go out with friends. Should their designated driver not fulfil their responsibility, your child can book a taxi cab to get home and be sure they’re able to pay their designated Taxis Combined Driver.

Whether going out, to work or in case of emergency, everyone should have one.

You can easily check your balance online or by SMS.

Refusal to carry an assistance animal by any Driver is against the law.

You must be able to provide an access card identifying your companion as an assistance animal if requested by the Driver.

Transport of non-assistance animals is at the discretion of the Driver and may be subject to the taxi cab owners policies.
