Freight and payments are foundations of global trade, but both introduce friction. Until today, forwarders booked cargo on one platform and paid on another, which is like shopping on Amazon but paying on Paypal. With WebCargo Pay, both are digitzed on a single platform, revolutionizing how forwarders and carriers interact and providing a better experience for importers and exporters. We recently interviewed Esen Dogan, VP Payments at WebCargo by Freightos, for a deep dive into how WebCargo’s payment solutions are setting new industry standards with a superior level of convenience, transparency, and efficency.

SmartPay is here, but what does it mean for carriers? 👇 ➡️ Less hassle Rather than sending invoices by email or post, you can easily invoice through our platform, so you know for sure your invoices have been received. ➡️ Less chasing Easily see the status of all your invoices, from awaiting approval to paid. No more chasing updates or payments. We'll be able to see when payments are late – and take action to reduce late payments. ➡️ Faster payments On certain jobs, you'll get paid within days (this depends on the invoice terms). When an invoice is paid via SmartPay, you'll have funds by the end of the day, 7 days a week. If a load poster pays you on a Sunday, you'll receive payment on the Sunday! The best part? It doesn't cost couriers a thing! We don't take any fees from couriers, and it's available to all CX members.
