FareTrade is a Canadian logistics management company whose core product is a cloud-based Transportation Management System (TMS). It also provides logistics management and consulting services. The platform targets everyone from startups shipping only a small number of orders per week to large enterprises handling thousands of shipments weekly. Its goal is to centralize carriers, rates, shipping, tracking, and transportation data in a single system.
The product focuses on multi-carrier shipping management, transportation automation, real-time tracking, shipping data analytics, invoice audit and reconciliation, custom shipping documents, and bulk label printing. The system already includes more than 200 carriers, including UPS, FedEx, Purolator, DHL, Canada Post, Loomis, Canpar, and others. Customers can also add their existing carriers; if they do not have carrier relationships, FareTrade can provide access to its partner carrier network.
For integrations, the available materials explicitly mention full Shopify integration, as well as support for WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Volusion, and other e-commerce platforms. FareTrade also has a dedicated team for ERP integrations and notes that the system can connect with WMS platforms. API, Webhook, SDK, or developer documentation is not disclosed.
FareTrade does not publish fixed pricing plans. Pricing depends on shipping volume, number of users, number of locations, and other factors, so customers need to contact the company for a quote. It offers a 30-day free account, which requires booking a free demo/consultation to activate. Subscriptions can be cancelled at any time with no additional fees. Deployment is cloud-based, with no on-premise installation required, and the platform can be accessed from phones, tablets, laptops, and desktop devices.
On collaboration, the platform supports unlimited users and unlimited locations, depending on the plan. Multiple departments can use it independently and manage their own transportation costs. Customer service is one of its strengths: FareTrade mentions IT and technical support, free online training, live support, and assistance with customs, duties, and taxes. In terms of security and compliance, only privacy policy and terms pages are visible; there is no disclosed information on encryption, certifications, data residency, or compliance standards.
Its strengths are the combination of software and consulting, a broad multi-carrier network, suitability for multi-location and multi-department shipping, and the ability to optimize transportation costs through data. The main drawbacks are opaque pricing and limited information on permissions, security/compliance, and APIs. FareTrade is best suited to North American companies with some level of shipping complexity that need to integrate e-commerce/ERP/WMS systems and optimize transportation costs. Access from mainland China, supported payment methods, and localization support are unknown. For Chinese cross-border e-commerce use cases, it may also be worth comparing with ShipStation, Easyship, Shippo, AfterShip, or domestic options such as Kdniao, Dianxiaomi, and Mabang ERP.
