The fruits of its collaboration with CargoAi have now been unveiled: Global Logistics Network (GLN) launched its own global payment platform, GLN CargoWALLET, this month. It has been “built specifically for freight and logistics professionals,” says the release, and uses CargoAi’s CargoWALLET technology which enables secure, real-time payments across more than 150 countries and 47 currencies. GLN CargoWALLET has been implemented across GLN’s international network of 250 logistics companies in over 137 countries, and early adopters have already shared positive feedback.
GLN CargoWALLET addresses longstanding challenges faced by freight forwarders, consolidators, and air and ocean cargo handlers. The platform allows GLN members to seamlessly send or receive payments, even if the recipient does not have a GLN CargoWALLET account. And that brings far greater flexibility and opportunity to business transactions that otherwise face considerable challenges if traditional payment methods are used.
Key features of GLN CargoWALLET include instant payment processing for real-time settlements, guest payment options for non-members, robust multi-currency support, and enterprise-grade security with end-to-end encryption and full traceability. These features not only enhance security but also streamline operational efficiency, making reconciliation and cash flow management much simpler for logistics companies.
Ernst van der Heijden, President of Global Logistics Network, stated: “GLN CargoWALLET represents a major step forward for our network. By integrating a smart, seamless, and secure payment solution into our ecosystem, we’re enabling members to operate with greater efficiency, speed, and trust.”
GLN member, Jürgen Anwander, General Manager of Aero Africa, explained. “Traditional payment methods are time-consuming and costly. With GLN CargoWALLET, transactions are real-time, affordable, and easy to manage.”
Olivier Veyrac, SVP of CargoWALLET at CargoAi, concluded: “We’re proud to partner with GLN on the launch of GLN CargoWALLET. This collaboration brings our advanced payment infrastructure to a global logistics network, offering freight professionals a future-ready tool to streamline their financial operations and unlock new efficiencies.”
