Preguntas frecuentes

Easy, start using Logitude e-AWB.

Absolutely! Please contact us at any time at info@logitudeworld.com and we will be happy to assist you to upgrade to our Economy or Business package.

Logitude was designed with the main purpose of being easy to use!  Consequently, you will be able to effectively use Logitude e-AWB on your first try. Nevertheless, we have extensive documentation and videos, which you can find on the Getting Started page in Logitude: e-AWB Quick Tour and e-AWB Tutorial that demonstrate the basic and the complicated procedures for opening and sending AWBs to the airlines. In addition, you will be assigned an account manager who will provide you with live training, and you will have full service support that will guide you and help you all the way!

You will need to purchase your first AWB package with your subscription. Five e-AWBs are supplied free of charge for testing purposes, following completion of the registration processes with the airlines.

Standard registration with an airline takes up to 30 days, depending on the airline’s response time to our registration request.  In some cases more time might be needed. At the end of the 30-day period, you will be able to choose to stay with the Business Package or move to the Economy package.

The free trial includes simulation of transmission of e-AWBs to airlines. Live transmissions in a free trial environment are not permitted due to registration processes within the airlines. All other Logitude functionality is available during the 30-day trial.

Yes! We have a demo environment where you can try the service. You can even simulate transmissions to airlines. Please contact us at info@logitudeworld.com.

Please note that the following currency conversion fees (markup percent) will apply:

You pay per message transmitted to an airline. If you transmit a MAWB and all the HAWBs, then you pay for all. Please note that it is advised to transmit HAWBs only in cases where due to such action you will avoid airlines fees.

AWB packages are shared across all of your users and are valid for 12 months (after which unused AWB credits will expire). Larger packages incorporate discounts reducing the cost per AWB. Additional packages can be purchased at any time.

e-AWB is based on a subscription fee plus pay-per-use fees for the AWBs transmitted to the airlines. For pay-per-use plans, see packages below. Subscription is free for existing Logitude Economy and Business customers – you only need to pay per AWB transmitted to the airlines. If you are not a Logitude customer, subscription to the e-AWB package is only USD 20 per user per month. Using the Logitude e-AWB package will typically save you, USD 10 in airline fees, per AWB.

Primarily, you can avoid some airline fees by supplying Master and House AWBs electronically. You benefit from printing AWBs on blank A4 paper and receiving automatic statuses from the airlines, which you can forward to your customer. If there will be new users in the additional environment, then the payment is per user. Users in an additional environment do not have free access to the parent environment.

Yes, assuming you have signed an “e-AWB agreement” with the airlines. This contract is needed since the e-AWB replaces the paper AWB as a contract of carriage between the “shipper” (forwarder) and the airline.

e-AWB is an IATA initiative to remove the paper AWB and replace it with electronic data.

There is no limit on the Data Storage you use, meaning there is no limit to the number of shipments or quotes you can open in Logitude. There is a limit on the Documents Storage. When you subscribe to the Logitude business package service you will receive 2 GB per user. This means that a company with 5 users will have 10 GB of Documents Storage.

The answer to this question depends on the size of each of the documents stored. For a general calculation we can estimate the size of an average document as 200k, and hence 1 GB is equivalent to 10,000 documents and in a company with 5 users (10 GB of storage) this is equivalent to 50,000 documents.

Each additional GB will cost one USD per month. This means that if a company with 5 users and 10 GB of storage needs to add 1 GB to the Documents Storage, the cost of the monthly subscription will grow by 1 USD only.

You can upgrade or downgrade your service package at any time; upgrades go into effect immediately. Downgrading the service package takes effect at the end of the billing cycle.

Sure! You can cancel your subscription at any time and for any reason. We offer a 30-day free trial plus a 30-day money back guarantee for your first month of subscription.

The 30-day trial provides you with full access to our recommended Business Package. During the trial period we will do our best to help you use as many features as possible, so that you understand how they help you save time, money and make you more productive. It is our goal to make sure you enjoy the system and understand its benefits.

At the end of the 30-day period, you will be able to choose to stay with the Business Package or move to the Economy package.

Logitude will work with any printer you have today. If you can print a PDF file and an Excel spreadsheet from your PC on your local printer, so can Logitude. The only feature that requires a more advanced printer is the double-side waybill (printing the Waybill on one side and the contract on the other side of a page in the same printing run). It is recommended, but not mandatory, to have a printer that supports double-sided printing to benefit from this feature.

No. The only thing you need is to be connected to the internet through a web browser.
