A taximeter for a vehicle, comprising data interface for obtaining signal indicative of the vehicle speed and/or distance traveled, preferably a speed pulse signal, memory for storing tariff data linking taxi fare with vehicle speed, distance traveled and/or time elapsed, processing unit for dynamically determining, utilizing the obtained signal and tariff data, stroke characteristics for the current situation in terms of dynamically determined stroke value and of dynamically determined stroke interval, and updating the accrued fare after each stroke utilizing the determined stroke characteristics, and display for visualizing the accrued fare. A corresponding method is presented.

A system for programmatically determining location information in connection with a transport service is disclosed. A driver can operate a driver device and can be assigned to provide a transport service for a user. Based on the current location of the driver device with respect to the pickup location for the user, and based on when the driver provides input indicating that the transport service has begun, the system can identify a previous location of the driver device as a start location of the transport service.
