Why ground handling agents in North America choose Belli for payments

Ground Handling Agents that depend on payments in North America can no longer absorb the cost of ticket-queue support that answers in days, not minutes. Cargo billing is notoriously error-prone. Belli automates the complete billing cycle from AWB rating through to CASS settlement. North American air cargo is dominated by the US ACAS/ACMS security regime and sophisticated customs requirements.

Operators routing through Toronto (YYZ) — carriers in the class of Kalitta Air, CargoJet — 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 North America, not 12–18 months.

The operational reality in North America

The friction is specific, not generic.

  • Scanner and IoT device integration nightmares — compounded in North America by CBP ACE customs integration
  • Running separate systems for each airline customer — compounded in North America by canada PACT pre-load targeting requirements
  • Compliance gaps with varying airline SLAs

What changes with Belli

The same operation, re-platformed:

  • Single platform serving all airline customers
  • Airline customer portal with live shipment visibility
  • SLA compliance tracking and automated reporting

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 North America

Under the hood, payments is engineered to remove the manual steps that slow ground handling agents down.

In practice, that means automated AWB rating and charge calculation, credit management and limit controls, and invoice generation and distribution. Belli also covers payment gateway integration against North America's specific constraints. Every step is auditable, and changes deploy continuously rather than in quarterly batches.

Built for North America's requirements

Running cargo in North America means living inside its rules, not around them. North American air cargo is dominated by the US ACAS/ACMS security regime and sophisticated customs requirements.

That shows up in the details: canada PACT pre-load targeting requirements; USMCA trade agreement customs facilitation; and CBP ACE customs integration. Carriers such as Kalitta Air, CargoJet, Amerijet International operate against exactly these conditions.

Going live in 10 days in North America

Belli treats implementation as a sprint, not a saga. Historical AWBs, allotments, and contracts move across without re-keying. Training runs in parallel, not after the fact. A named engineer stays attached after launch — reachable 24/7, not via a portal.

The bottom line for Ground Handling Agents in North America

The decision comes down to one question for North America operators. Manual workflows do not just cost hours — they cost yield on every departure. Belli turns payments from a cost center into a measurable gain — 2% dispute rate. Operations through Toronto (YYZ) move at this pace today. Start with the demo and a 10-day plan, not a pilot committee.
