What data do you need to track a shipment?

How can I share shipments with customers?

Can I have a trial of your tracking services?

Do I have to sign an annual contract?

They invoice monthly for the actual shipments tracked (subject to minimum volume if agreed). If a shipment cannot be tracked for some reason, they do not invoice for it. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}
