WebCargo by Freightos, a leading independent booking and payment platform for the international freight industry, announced a new partnership with Thai Airways, the national carrier of Thailand.
“In the coming months, Thai Airways will integrate its cargo capacities into WebCargo’s platform, offering real-time booking, pricing, and payment processes. Soon, forwarders will be able to book and pay for air cargo directly with WebCargo Pay, an integrated payment solution that enables more seamless payments and reconciliations,” says an official release from Freightos.
In its initial phase, the collaboration will leverage Thai Airways’ network to some freight forwarders in Australia, Japan, Thailand and the United Kingdom seeking to book and pay for cargo services through WebCargo’s platform, the release added.
“By helping forwarders of different sizes easily book and pay for Thai Airways capacity on WebCargo’s platform, we are not only expanding digital access to one of Asia’s largest air cargo networks but also continuing our mission to help evolve how cargo bookings and payments are handled,” says Manuel Galindo, Chief Revenue Officer, Freightos. “With WebCargo eBooking and Pay, Thai Airways will be able to expand their audience and provide their customers with smooth access to flexible credit and payment options, and to complete their bookings in seconds.”
Chirachet Chanawiset, Head of Cargo & Mail Commercial, Thai Airways Cargo adds: “Thai Airways aims for service of excellence to provide secure and environmentally-responsible air transport solutions. Our collaboration with WebCargo by Freightos is a key milestone in our digital transformation journey. With WebCargo Pay, we are excited to reach a broader audience and empower a wider array of freight forwarders to grow their businesses, easily and securely.”
