Offer

Estimate and offer are separate stages

Carrier offer

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

When should I create the transfer?

Because MVP1 focuses on planned transfers, create the reservation request by choosing the date and time in advance.

What is the difference between an estimate and an offer?

An estimated price is a planning indicator only. A carrier offer contains the price and service conditions from a licensed company.

Who assigns the vehicle and driver?

After the customer approves a suitable offer and successfully pays the full amount by in-app card, the real reservation is created and the licensed carrier company assigns the vehicle and driver.
