Cargo Payments & Billing Automation for Ground Handling Agents in Canada

Why ground handling agents in Canada choose Belli for payments

Across Canada, Ground Handling Agents run payments on infrastructure that wasn't built for how air cargo moves today. 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 Chicago O'Hare (ORD) — carriers in the class of ABX Air, Atlas Air — 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 Canada, not 12–18 months. Canada deployments inherit the same SLA.

The operational reality in Canada

The friction is specific, not generic.

• Compliance gaps with varying airline SLAs — compounded in Canada by e-commerce fulfillment cargo growth
• No real-time inventory visibility for airline customers — compounded in Canada by TSA CCSP compliance
• Running separate systems for each airline customer
• Canada-specific: PACT pre-load targeting. CBSA customs integration. CargoJet domestic network.

What changes with Belli

The same operation, re-platformed:

• Airline customer portal with live shipment visibility
• SLA compliance tracking and automated reporting
• Pre-built scanner and IoT device integrations

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 Canada

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

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

Built for Canada's requirements

Running cargo in Canada 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: TSA CCSP compliance; CBP ACE customs integration; and e-commerce fulfillment cargo growth. Canada adds its own layer — PACT pre-load targeting. CBSA customs integration. CargoJet domestic network. Carriers such as ABX Air, Atlas Air, WestJet Cargo operate against exactly these conditions.

Going live in 10 days in Canada

Switching is the part most ground handling agents dread — Belli compresses it into ten working days. Your existing integrations are reconnected, not rebuilt from scratch. The team is live and supported before the old system is switched off. After go-live you keep direct access to the engineers who built the system.

The bottom line for Ground Handling Agents in Canada

The decision comes down to one question for Canada operators. The status quo is expensive precisely because it looks free. The platform targets a concrete number: 2% dispute rate. The benchmark has already shifted; the only question is when you match it. Book the demo and get a go-live date in the same conversation.
