When creating a Rate Card, pricing, service type, serviced locations, transportation details, charges, and fees are defined. Once reviewed and published, this information becomes instantly available for quoting.
Service Type
The service type establishes which portion of the shipment the rate card applies to.
Available service types include:
First Mile Services, covering the initial movement of cargo from the origin, such as pickup or origin handling.
Final Mile Services, covering the final delivery portion of a shipment, typically from the destination port or terminal to the end location.
Port-to-Port Services, covering transportation strictly between ports or airports, without including first or final mile services.
Transportation Mode
The transportation mode defines how the cargo is moved and influences the pricing structures available within the rate card.
Supported modes include:
Airfreg
Ocean LCL (Less Than Container Load)
Ocean FCL (Full Container Load)
Partner
Rate cards are created for specific partners, selecting a partner determines which agent can access and use the rate card when quoting shipments.
Service Locations
Service locations define where the service is available. By selecting countries, the system determines which ports or airports can be used. From there, the rate card can be linked to specific ports or airports .
Fees
The fees included in a rate card represent the cost components associated with the selected service and transportation mode. Some fees are essential for the service to function correctly and are included by default. These fees can be adjusted, and additional fees can be added to reflect the specific services being offered.
