Cargo Payments & Billing Automation for Ground Handling Agents — Latin America

Why ground handling agents in Latin America choose Belli for payments

Belli rebuilt payments from first principles for ground handling agents in Latin America — not as a bolt-on to a legacy core. Cargo billing is notoriously error-prone. Belli automates the complete billing cycle from AWB rating through to CASS settlement. Latin American air cargo is driven by perishable exports, mining equipment, and growing e-commerce.

Operators routing through Lima (LIM) and Mexico City (MEX) — carriers in the class of Aeromexico Cargo, GOL Cargo — face the same pressure: more volume, tighter slots, and zero tolerance for a load plan that leaves revenue on the ramp. Belli's payments targets a measurable outcome — 2% dispute rate — and goes live in 10 days for teams operating in Latin America, not 12–18 months.

The operational reality in Latin America

Here is what actually breaks for ground handling agents in Latin America.

• Compliance gaps with varying airline SLAs — compounded in Latin America by mining and energy sector equipment cargo
• Scanner and IoT device integration nightmares — compounded in Latin America by currency volatility requiring multi-currency pricing
• Paper-based ULD acceptance and handover processes

What changes with Belli

The same operation, re-platformed:

• Airline customer portal with live shipment visibility
• Single platform serving all airline customers
• Automated ULD acceptance, build-up, and handover

Before Belli: Manual billing takes 15+ minutes per AWB. 20% of invoices disputed. After Belli: Automated billing in real time. Invoice disputes below 2%. Full CASS integration.

How Belli's Payments works in Latin America

Belli's payments runs as one connected workflow, configured for Latin America from day one.

In practice, that means aging reports and collection workflows, IATA CASS settlement integration, and payment gateway integration. Belli also covers invoice generation and distribution against Latin America's specific constraints. Every step is auditable, and changes deploy continuously rather than in quarterly batches.

Built for Latin America's requirements

Latin America is not a single market — it is a set of regulators, hubs, and carrier models that punish one-size-fits-all software. Latin American air cargo is driven by perishable exports, mining equipment, and growing e-commerce.

That shows up in the details: currency volatility requiring multi-currency pricing; growing e-commerce driving air freight demand; and perishable cargo dominance requiring cold-chain management. Carriers such as Aeromexico Cargo, GOL Cargo, Avianca Cargo operate against exactly these conditions.

Going live in 10 days in Latin America

Switching is the part most ground handling agents dread — Belli compresses it into ten working days. Historical AWBs, allotments, and contracts move across without re-keying. Training runs in parallel, not after the fact. Post-launch, changes ship continuously rather than waiting for a quarterly release.

The bottom line for Ground Handling Agents in Latin America

The decision comes down to one question for Latin America operators. Each delayed integration is margin that never shows up on the P&L. 2% dispute rate is the outcome Belli is engineered to deliver. Carriers like Aeromexico Cargo, GOL Cargo, Avianca Cargo already operate at this standard. The next step is a working demo, not a six-week sales cycle.
