How it sells itself

Your carrier bills you weeks after the sale, in a file that does not mention order numbers. So the gap between what a customer paid for shipping and what the carrier billed you stays invisible. Freight Margin Guard reads your UPS, FedEx or LTL invoice, matches every line to the order it belongs to, and shows the margin on every shipment.

Othermile checks every order that crosses between Canada and the US before you ship it. It works out duties, tariffs, sales tax and carrier fees from the official rules in force, compares mail, courier and duty paid shipping, and applies your limits. Orders that would cost your customer too much at the door, or cost you too much to ship, wait for your OK on your phone.

Key points
  • Match every carrier invoice line to the Shopify order it belongs to
  • Compare shipping collected against carrier billed, order by order
  • Surface surcharges and weight adjustments you did not expect
  • Try a sample audit built from your own shipments before uploading a file
  • Check every order for duties, taxes and fees before it ships
  • Hold orders that break your limits until you approve them on your phone
  • Compare mail, courier and duty paid shipping on each order
  • Show shoppers the duties and taxes due at delivery before they buy
