[0026] With the continuous development of the chauffeur service market, chauffeur SaaS platforms have provided convenient operation and management solutions for numerous chauffeur service providers. In chauffeur services, coupons are a common marketing tool widely used to attract users, increase user stickiness, and promote order completion. However, existing chauffeur SaaS platforms have many problems with coupon billing.

[0027] For example, the integration of billing models and coupons is weak, and the existing billing models have a poor correlation with coupons, failing to fully consider the flexible adjustment role of coupons in the billing process. Coupons are often used only as simple amount deductions and are not deeply integrated with various fees in the billing model (such as starting fees, mileage fees, time fees, waiting fees, and long-distance fees), resulting in the potential value of coupons not being fully realized.

[0028] For example, the deduction logic is too simplistic. Existing coupon deduction logic is relatively simple, usually only supporting amount deductions and unable to provide targeted discounts based on different fee types (such as mileage fees, time fees, etc.). This single deduction method cannot meet the diverse needs of users in different scenarios. For example, users may want to get mileage fee discounts when driving long distances or deduct waiting fees when waiting time is long, but the existing model cannot provide such flexible solutions.

[0029] The billing model based on coupons is often inflexible and fails to meet the diverse marketing needs of different ride-hailing service providers. For example, different regions, time periods, and user groups may require different coupon usage rules and billing methods, but existing platforms struggle to quickly customize and adjust them. Furthermore, the lack of an efficient and accurate calculation model for combining coupons with actual trip costs leads to complex and error-prone calculations, potentially causing disputes between users and platforms. In other words, the correlation between coupons and billing models in related technologies is weak, making it difficult to accommodate various coupons across different scenarios, resulting in insufficient efficiency and accuracy in coupon deduction during cost settlement.

[0030] To facilitate understanding of the technical solution of this application, the relevant terms will first be explained: Starting fee: This is the minimum charge for chauffeur services. Within a certain range, regardless of the actual driving distance or time, users will need to pay a starting fee as long as they place an order and use the chauffeur service.

[0031] Mileage fee: This fee is calculated based on the actual mileage traveled during the chauffeur service. It is usually charged per kilometer.

[0032] Time-based fee: This fee is calculated based on the actual service time of the designated driver service. It is usually charged per hour or per minute.

[0033] Waiting fee: The waiting fee is the charge incurred by the designated driver while waiting for the user. It is usually charged per minute or per hour.

[0034] Long-distance fee: This fee is charged when the distance traveled by a designated driver service exceeds a certain range. It is usually used to compensate the designated driver for the extra costs incurred due to long-distance travel.

[0035] According to an embodiment of this application, a coupon billing method based on a SaaS platform is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart in the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions. Also, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be executed in a different order than that shown here.

[0036] This embodiment provides a coupon billing method based on a SaaS platform, applicable to tenants of the SaaS platform. Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a coupon billing method based on a SaaS platform according to an embodiment of this application, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the process includes the following steps: Step S201: Create various types of coupons, each with an expiration date, redemption location, and eligible recipients.

[0037] This embodiment of the coupon billing method based on the SaaS platform adopts a multi-tenant architecture design. Through technologies such as data isolation and access control, it ensures that different ride-hailing service providers (tenants) have independent, secure, and reliable data when using the platform. Each tenant can have independent coupon rule configurations and fee calculation parameter settings to meet its personalized needs. For example, tenant A can set up discount coupon rules suitable for its own business, while tenant B can set up different mileage coupon rules according to its own situation, without interfering with each other.

[0038] This embodiment of the coupon billing method based on the SaaS platform adopts containerized deployment technology, encapsulating the platform's functional modules using Docker containers and managing the containers through Kubernetes. This enables independent deployment, upgrades, and expansion of each module. When the coupon billing module needs to be updated, only the relevant container needs to be operated on, without affecting the operation of other modules, greatly improving deployment efficiency and system stability.

[0039] The platform is decomposed using a microservices architecture, breaking down coupon billing-related functions into multiple independent microservices such as coupon management and trip billing services. These microservices communicate via RPC and can be independently scaled and maintained. For example, when coupon redemption volume surges, only the coupon management microservice needs to be scaled up to ensure service response speed.

[0040] Specifically, chauffeur service providers among the tenants of the SaaS platform create various types of coupons. These coupons have attributes such as validity period, redemption location, and eligible recipients. They are used to target different regions, times, and individuals to improve the coverage and usage rate of the coupons.

[0041] Step S202: Receive the target coupon and driving-related information received by the passenger.

[0042] Specifically, the target coupon refers to the chauffeur service coupon that passengers receive on a mobile device that has access to the chauffeur service provider's services installed. Driving-related information refers to information such as the actual mileage, driving time, and waiting time of the vehicle the passenger traveled in.

[0043] After passengers arrive at the designated location by vehicle, the tenant receives the coupons and travel-related information collected by the passengers.

[0044] Step S203: In response to the passenger submitting a billing request, determine the target billing deduction model based on the target coupon received by the passenger.

[0045] Specifically, a billing request refers to the network request made by a passenger when paying for a fare on a mobile terminal. This network request is sent to the tenant to calculate the final fare. The target billing deduction model refers to the billing deduction model used for a target coupon.

[0046] When a passenger pays for their ride, or after the passenger confirms their arrival at their destination, the tenant selects the target billing deduction model that matches the target coupon the passenger has already received.

[0047] It should be noted that the tenant can automatically initiate a billing request response based on whether the passenger has reached their destination.

[0048] Step S204: Based on the driving-related information, the target fare deduction model is used to deduct the target coupon to determine the passenger's fare.

[0049] Specifically, after determining the target fare deduction model corresponding to the target coupon, the travel-related information and the information in the target coupon are combined, and the passenger's travel fare is calculated through the target fare deduction model.

[0050] In one example, the target coupon is deducted based on information such as the starting mileage, travel time, and waiting time associated with the trip, and the passenger's fare is calculated.

[0051] This embodiment provides a SaaS platform-based coupon billing method that creates various types of coupons, each with an expiration date, redemption location, and eligible recipients, providing multiple coupon types as data sources for coupon billing. It receives the target coupon and travel-related information redeemed by the passenger, providing comprehensive data preparation for coupon billing. Responding to a passenger's billing request, it determines the target billing deduction model based on the target coupon redeemed by the passenger, facilitating the use of different models for different types of coupons, improving the accuracy and efficiency of coupon deduction. Based on the travel-related information, it uses the target billing deduction model to deduct the target coupon, determining the passenger's fare, thus improving fare settlement efficiency and coupon deduction accuracy.

[0052] In an optional implementation, step S203 above, which determines the target fare deduction model based on the target coupon received by the passenger, includes: Step a1: If the target coupon is a mileage coupon, then the mileage-based billing deduction model is used as the target billing deduction model.

[0053] Step a2: If the target coupon is a discount coupon, then the discount billing model is used as the target billing model.

[0054] Step a3: If the target coupon is a discount coupon, then the discount billing model is used as the target billing model.

[0055] Specifically, mileage-based coupons are coupons that deduct fees based on mileage. The mileage-based deduction model refers to a model that deducts coupon fees based on mileage information. Full-amount-reduction coupons are coupons that deduct fees based on the total billed amount. The full-amount-reduction model refers to a model that deducts coupon fees when the total billed amount reaches a preset amount. Instant-reduction coupons are coupons that directly deduct the order amount. The instant-reduction model refers to a model that directly deducts the instant-reduction coupon amount based on the order amount.

[0056] This implementation method provides different billing models for various types of coupons, thereby improving billing efficiency and accurately calculating the deduction of various coupons.

[0057] In an optional implementation, step S204 includes: Step b1: If the target fare deduction model is a mileage-based fare deduction model, then the fare is determined by deducting based on the driving-related information and mileage coupons. The mileage coupons are used to reduce the fare for discounted mileage.

[0058] Step b2: If the target fare deduction model is a full-reduction fare deduction model, then determine the fare based on the travel-related information and the full-reduction coupon.

[0059] Step b3: If the target fare deduction model is the instant discount fare deduction model, then determine the fare based on the travel-related information and the instant discount coupon.

[0060] Specifically, mileage coupons are used to reduce the cost of rides on discounted mileage. Discount coupons are used to reduce the cost of rides on the total amount of a qualifying order. Instant discount coupons are used to reduce the cost of rides on the current order.

[0061] If the target fare deduction model is a mileage-based fare deduction model, then the fare will be calculated based on the actual mileage traveled in the driving-related information and the discounted mileage of the mileage coupon.

[0062] If the target fare deduction model is a full-reduction fare deduction model, then the fare will be calculated by deducting the total cost of the actual mileage traveled from the driving-related information and the full-reduction amount of the coupon.

[0063] If the target fare deduction model is an instant discount fare deduction model, then the fare will be calculated based on the actual mileage traveled according to the driving-related information and the instant discount amount of the instant discount coupon.

[0064] This implementation method calculates fares based on travel-related information and corresponding coupons for three different fare deduction models, thereby improving the efficiency of coupon deduction settlement.

[0065] In one optional implementation, step b1 includes: Based on the actual mileage traveled according to the driving information, mileage coupons can be used to deduct the starting fee, mileage fee, and long-distance fee to obtain the fare.

[0066] For mileage coupons, the first starting fee coupon, the first mileage fee coupon, and the first long-distance fee coupon are deducted one by one in sequence, and the starting fee, mileage fee, and long-distance fee are deducted in sequence based on the actual mileage driven in the driving-related information.

[0067] In one possible implementation, for the mileage-based billing deduction model, the mileage voucher deduction logic is executed, and the deduction amount is calculated in order of discount for each of the following fees: starting fee, mileage fee, and long-distance fee.

[0068] 1. To calculate the starting mileage discount, first determine if the initial mileage is sufficient to offset the discount. If it is, calculate the starting mileage discount amount; Formula for calculating starting fee discount:

[0069] If the distance is insufficient, the starting fee will be fully deducted, and the remaining discounted mileage will be calculated as: Discounted mileage - Starting mileage.

[0070] 2. Calculate the mileage fee discount amount and determine if the mileage for which the mileage fee is charged is sufficient to offset the remaining discounted mileage. If sufficient, calculate the mileage fee discount amount: Mileage fee discount calculation formula:

[0071] If the mileage fee is insufficient, it will be fully deducted.

[0072] 3. Calculate the long-distance fare discount; determine if the discounted mileage is greater than the starting mileage for the long-distance fare. If it is less, no long-distance fare discount is calculated; otherwise, the discount is calculated. Formula for calculating long-distance fare discounts:

[0073] In one example, a passenger receives a mileage coupon for 20km, and can use the coupon to fully deduct the mileage when the actual distance traveled is 10km.

[0074] In another example, the initial mileage is 3km, the initial fee is 12 yuan, the passenger receives a mileage coupon for 20km, the vehicle actually travels 50km with passengers, and the mileage fee is 2 yuan per kilometer. Therefore, the mileage fee = (50-3)*2 = 94 yuan, the remaining discounted mileage = 20-3 = 17km, and the mileage fee deduction = 17 / 47*94 = 34 yuan. Therefore, the total fare is 94-34 = 60 yuan.

[0075] This implementation method deducts the initial fare, then the mileage fare, and finally the long-distance fare for different travel distances. This ensures a reasonable deduction based on the actual mileage traveled, maximizing the use of mileage coupons and applying different deductions for different distances. This improves the accuracy of coupon deduction settlement.

[0076] In one optional implementation, step b2 above includes: If the actual fare based on the travel distance is greater than the discount amount of the coupon, the discount coupon will be applied in the following order: starting fee, mileage fee, time fee, waiting fee, and long-distance fee, to determine the fare.

[0077] Specifically, when the coupon is a discount coupon, if the total fare for the passenger's actual travel distance is greater than the discount amount of the coupon, then the fare can be reduced. The calculation formula is: Fare = Total Fare - Discount Amount.

[0078] Furthermore, for the total fare reduction, the reduction will be applied sequentially according to the following order: starting fee, mileage fee, time fee, waiting fee, and long-distance fee, until the full amount of the fare reduction is deducted.

[0079] This implementation method enables fast and accurate deduction and billing for coupons with minimum spending requirements.

[0080] In one optional implementation, step b3 above includes: Obtain the actual mileage of the trip based on the driving information, and use the instant discount coupon to deduct the fare in the following order: starting fee, mileage fee, time fee, waiting fee, and long-distance fee.

[0081] Specifically, when the coupon is an instant discount coupon, it will be applied to the total fare regardless of the actual distance traveled, with the discount amount being the coupon's full amount. The discounts are applied in the following order: starting fare, mileage fare, time fare, waiting fee, and finally long-distance fare. If the discount is fully applied to an earlier fare, the application process ends. Otherwise, it continues to the next fare until the discount is exhausted.

[0082] This implementation method enables fast and accurate deduction and billing for instant discount coupons.

[0083] This embodiment provides a coupon billing method based on a SaaS platform, applicable to mobile terminals such as mobile phones and tablets. Figure 3 This is a flowchart of another coupon billing method based on a SaaS platform according to an embodiment of this application, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the process includes the following steps: Step S301: Receive the target coupon issued by the tenant of the SaaS platform.

[0084] Step S302: Obtain the user's driving-related data.

[0085] In step S303, in response to a user-triggered billing event, driving-related data and target coupons are sent to the tenant.

[0086] Specifically, on the passenger's mobile terminal, the passenger receives a target coupon issued by the SaaS platform's tenant (chauffeur service provider) through an application installed on the mobile terminal. After the passenger completes the ride, the mobile terminal obtains the user's driving-related data. When the user clicks to pay or start the settlement process, a billing event is triggered. The mobile terminal sends a network request to the tenant to request billing for the current mileage and sends the driving-related data and target coupon to the tenant. This provides the tenant with driving-related data and coupon data that allow for accurate cost calculation.

[0087] Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating another coupon billing method based on a SaaS platform according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 4 As shown, when a passenger queries a price using their mobile terminal, the mobile terminal initiates a network request to the tenant, carrying coupon information. Based on the type of the target coupon received by the passenger, a target billing deduction model is determined. When the target coupon is a mileage-based coupon, the mileage-based billing model is used as the target billing deduction model for mileage coupon deduction logic. When the target coupon is a discount coupon, the discount billing model is used as the target billing deduction model for discount billing logic. When the target coupon is an instant discount coupon, the instant discount billing model is used as the target billing deduction model for instant discount coupon deduction logic. For these three different types of coupons, the billing methods differ. For example, the mileage-based billing model focuses more on billing based on mileage traveled, while discount and instant discount models focus more on billing based on travel time.

[0088] For the mileage coupon deduction logic, firstly, the starting mileage in the actual mileage data submitted by the passenger is compared with the discounted mileage of the mileage coupon. If the discounted mileage is less than or equal to the starting mileage, the starting fee deduction amount is calculated using the formula: Starting Fee Deduction Amount = (Discounted Mileage / Starting Mileage) * Starting Fee. If the discounted mileage is greater than the starting mileage, the starting fee is fully deducted. Remaining deductible mileage = Deductible Mileage - Starting Mileage, where the deductible mileage is the actual mileage traveled. Next, it is determined whether the remaining discounted mileage is greater than the toll-based mileage. If so, the mileage fee is fully deducted; otherwise, the mileage fee deduction amount is calculated using the formula: Mileage Fee Deduction Amount = (Remaining Discounted Mileage / Toll-Based Mileage) * Mileage Fee. For long-distance fees, it is determined whether the deductible mileage after calculating the mileage fee is greater than the starting deductible mileage for long-distance fees. If so, the toll-based long-distance fee deduction amount = ((Deductible Mileage - Starting Mileage for Long-Distance Fee) / (Actual Mileage - Starting Mileage for Long-Distance Fee)) * Long-Distance Fee.

[0089] For the full-reduction fare model, first determine whether the total fare is greater than the discount amount of the full-reduction coupon. If so, use the same processing logic as the instant-reduction fare model to deduct the coupon amount.

[0090] For the instant discount coupon deduction logic, it checks if the discount amount is greater than the starting fee. If not, the starting fee deduction amount equals the discount amount; if so, the remaining discount amount equals the discount amount minus the starting fee. It then checks if the remaining discount amount is greater than the mileage fee. If not, the mileage fee deduction amount equals the remaining coupon amount; if so, the time fee, waiting fee, and long-distance fee are calculated and deducted sequentially. This allows for fast and accurate processing of each type of coupon using the corresponding billing model, improving the efficiency and accuracy of coupon deduction and billing.

[0091] This embodiment also provides a coupon billing device based on a SaaS platform, which is used to implement the above embodiments and preferred embodiments; details already described will not be repeated.
