Modern payments for Ground Handling Agents in United States

Belli rebuilt payments from first principles for ground handling agents in United States — 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. 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, Amerijet International — 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 United States, not 12–18 months. United States deployments inherit the same SLA.

The operational reality in United States

On the ground in United States, the failure points are concrete.

  • Paper-based ULD acceptance and handover processes — compounded in United States by US ACAS mandatory pre-departure filing
  • Manual warehouse slotting and inbound/outbound tracking — compounded in United States by canada PACT pre-load targeting requirements
  • Compliance gaps with varying airline SLAs
  • United States-specific: ACE customs system. ACAS pre-departure filing. TSA screening compliance.

What changes with Belli

What ground handling agents get instead:

  • Airline customer portal with live shipment visibility
  • Real-time warehouse management with barcode/RFID integration
  • 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 United States

The mechanics are built for throughput, not paperwork — whether cargo moves through Chicago O'Hare (ORD) or a dozen stations.

In practice, that means IATA CASS settlement integration, automated AWB rating and charge calculation, and credit management and limit controls. Belli also covers aging reports and collection workflows against United States's specific constraints. Every step is auditable, and changes deploy continuously rather than in quarterly batches.

Built for United States's requirements

North America is not a single market — it is a set of regulators, hubs, and carrier models that punish one-size-fits-all software. 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 US ACAS mandatory pre-departure filing. United States adds its own layer — ACE customs system. ACAS pre-departure filing. TSA screening compliance. Carriers such as ABX Air, Amerijet International, Kalitta Air operate against exactly these conditions.

Going live in 10 days in United States

There is no multi-quarter cutover here. The first days are spent migrating live bookings, tariffs, and message flows. Cutover happens with a Belli engineer on the line, not a ticket queue. Post-launch, changes ship continuously rather than waiting for a quarterly release.

The bottom line for Ground Handling Agents in United States

Strip away the demos and it is about outcomes. The status quo is expensive precisely because it looks free. 2% dispute rate is the outcome Belli is engineered to deliver. Carriers like ABX Air, Amerijet International, Kalitta Air already operate at this standard. The next step is a working demo, not a six-week sales cycle.
