01The problem

Pricing a quote by hand takes ten minutes. Every time.

Find the price list for the zone, work out which surcharges apply, add your markup, write the reply. Here's the same request, done both ways.

Which carriers does Qotery work with?

Any carrier you have prices for. Upload their rate sheet as CSV or Excel, with zones, weight bands, fuel and surcharges, and Qotery prices from it. DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT, DPD, Parcelforce and others get their own badges; anyone else can have their logo uploaded. More about rate sheets

Do I need Outlook?

No. You can forward requests to your own Qotery address or paste them in. If your team uses Outlook, the add-in puts a “Quote this” button next to every email. About the Outlook add-in

Where do my rates come from?

Your own negotiated rate sheets. Qotery never uses published or shared prices, so every quote reflects your buy rates and the margin you choose.

What if the request is missing information?

Qotery flags it: dimensions that look like millimetres, missing postcodes, weights, stackability, goods descriptions or Incoterms. It drafts one polite email asking for everything at once.

Does Qotery send emails without me?

No. Qotery drafts; you review, adjust the margin if you like, and send.
