FA-85615 / Ride-hailing fare and surge pricing / Member archive

Quote honored at the exact expiry second · case 05

A request exactly five minutes after the quote still uses the locked surge.

Case contract

A fare quote locks its surge for 300 seconds: requests with 0 <= elapsed < 300 seconds are locked (a request timestamped before the quote, from clock skew, is not). A locked request uses the lower of the quoted and current surge; otherwise the current surge. Price = core x surge / 10, half up. Return [price, locked|requoted].

Why this case matters

Ride-hailing prices are computed per trip at scale; ordering, unit and boundary slips become systematic over- or under-charging.
