The freight quoting process is notoriously time-consuming, complex, and opaque. It can take up to 30 hours to receive a quote that may not be accurate or transparent. That's a lot of time wasted when you could be shipping your goods and getting your products to market.
Silq is changing that with My Rates
My Rates is a new tool that gives you instant access to your specially customized shipping rates for your critical trade lanes. With My Rates, you can easily compare rates for different shipping modes, including Silq’s unique SCL (Shared Container load) mode. You can also see a crisp breakdown of your port-to-port rates by charge categories and their corresponding rates. This means you can see exactly what factors are affecting your shipping costs and easily evaluate your shipment options.
This level of transparency is unprecedented in the freight industry
It's never been easier to make informed decisions about your shipping. With My Rates, you can see exactly how your shipping costs are calculated, how they’d change with a different mode and what environmental impact they’d have (coming soon!) so you can make the best possible choices for your business.
Here are just a few of the benefits of using My Rates:
- See your customized rates for different shipping modes
- Compare rates to find the most cost-effective way to ship your goods
- Lock your rate for up to one month

We hope you find My Rates tool to be a valuable resource. If you have any questions or cannot find the feature, please contact your account manager. Currently, My Rates only supports port-to-port rates, but we will be adding port-to-door rates in the future. Please stay tuned for updates.
