Marketplaces give buyers the ability to compare multiple providers easily across a variety of metrics – pricing, reliability, performance, and more – rather than researching them one by one. While we are all familiar with the experience in the consumer world, with platforms like Expedia, business-to-business (B2B) platforms typically support both finding vendors as well as making it easier to work with the ones you find.

At Freightos.com importers and exporters can instantly compare, book and manage a variety of global freight solutions, whether air or ocean freight across multiple freight forwarders, comparing across parameters like price, transit time, reviews, andmore. Once booked, companies can easily manage and pay for all their shipments in one place across multiple providers. Instant comparisons combined with Freightos data and verified reviews means that importers save time on research prior to booking a shipment and save time on coordination during the process.

Booking through Freightos does not necessarily more than booking through a traditional freight forwarder. Our marketplace connects importers and exporters to instant comparison across multiple providers, giving them access to more competitive pricing and a wider range of services than they would get with a single provider. While Freightos does take a small percentage from the provider, this is typically far less than providers would pay for advertising, customer acquisition, and customer service, ensuring that rates on Freightos are transparent and competitive.
