USD. Excludes shipping postage, packaging, taxes, returns and special projects. The minimum applies only to pick-and-pack charges in this model. Check the scope and billing units in each provider's contract.

02 / THE MATH, MADE VISIBLE

A cheaper pick fee
can hide a bigger bill.

We calculate pick-and-pack charges from monthly orders and average units per order, then add pallet storage, inbound receiving and fixed monthly charges.

If pick-and-pack charges fall below the monthly fulfillment minimum, we add the shortfall. This keeps the minimum from being counted twice.

Use your quote's numbers. The prefilled example is fictional. Seasonal storage, peak surcharges and provider-specific minimum rules require separate adjustments.
