Abstract
An apparatus is described for increasing a fare to a rounded-off amount, in which the fare is determined by an electronic taximeter and prior to the preparation of a voucher in an assigned voucher printout mechanism the amount payable is rounded-off by an increase of the fare amount manually preselectable in predetermined steps, based on an actuation of operating keys. A stepwise or discretely adjustable rounding-off is selectable for printout in the voucher printer in such a way that the voucher shows the sum, formed from the fare+surcharge+additional amount selected by the passenger.
