About us

Almost every single thing that you eat, wear, or use (yes, even the screen you’re reading this on) is imported. Freight quite literally moves the world. And we’re helping it move even better.

Freightos (Nasdaq: CRGO) is the global booking and payment platform for the trillion-dollar freight industry. Hundreds of airlines and ocean liners, thousands of freight companies, and over ten thousand importers and exporters use our platform to move goods around the world faster and more efficiently. This matters. Efficient freight ultimately makes things cost a little bit less when you buy them in the store.

As the leading global freight booking platform for a massive industry, we’ve been crushing it with double-digit growth, year after year, supporting well over one million shipments every year. 

WebCargo by Freightos is a critical part of the Freightos puzzle. With over a decade of experience digitizing digital freight sales, pricing, quoting and online bookings, we’re literally taking off. This isn’t some social media app; it’s providing the platform that quite literally helps freight companies connect the world. Are you getting goosebumps? Good.
