Fares / Quotes
In this document you will be able to request a Quotation or Quote to estimate the price of a delivery in your area/city at the times available.
You can choose from 3 types of Quotes that depend on each city. If you are a company with less than 100 deliveries a day, you are most likely to use these available fares to create a delivery in our system.
Note: There are fares previously arranged with certain companies that will be generated automatically when a delivery is created using this endpoint . Learn more about contracts and covenants with companies that have specific operation rules and volume contacting to our team at http://shippify.co
There are 3 types of Quotations you can choose that will have different prices, pickup and delivery scheduled times.
Express (Deliver under 3 hours)
Scheduled time slots (Time windows during the day)
Flex (Collect in the morning, deliver in the afternoon)
