Help with Wharvex

Questions about quotes, providers and your workspace

Find out how to compare offers, request a quote and work with independent providers, or get help setting up your business workspace.

Frequently asked questions

Who supplies my products or handles my shipment?

The independent provider you choose supplies the goods or performs the service. Wharvex helps you discover providers and manage requests. Confirm coverage, specifications and terms directly with your provider.

Is a published freight rate my final shipment price?

Published rates show a charging unit and currency. Your final quote depends on the route, cargo, minimum charges and additional services. Check the rate details and request confirmation before booking.

How do I request a quote?

Choose Request a quote, describe your requirements and select a provider. Review your request on the provider page and sign in when submitting so you can follow up. Your initial description is not sent until you submit it.

Who is Wharvex for?

Wharvex is designed for customers, suppliers, sourcing agents, freight forwarders and warehouse teams. Each organisation gets a tenant-scoped workspace and can use the modules relevant to its work.

Does Wharvex provide freight forwarding services?

No. Wharvex provides the SaaS platform. Independent tenants advertise and deliver their own services through their branded workspace and public site.

Can each organisation publish a public profile?

Yes. Eligible organisations can publish provider profiles, products, catalogues, service offerings and rate cards. Public content remains attributable to the organisation that published it.

Can customers and suppliers log in?

Yes. External users can receive relationship-specific access to the relevant portal features without receiving internal staff permissions.

Can we configure roles and permissions?

Yes. Tenant owners and team leads can use permission sets and role-aware access controls. Sensitive actions and financial visibility can be restricted.

Does it support freight and sourcing together?

Yes. Sourcing projects can move through supplier comparison and approvals into freight quotation, shipment and delivery coordination.

Can a customer use Wharvex without another provider?

Yes. Customers can manage their own products, suppliers, RFQs, orders, documents and shipments, then involve a sourcing agent or freight forwarder only when needed.

How is tenant data protected?

The platform uses tenant-scoped access controls, lifecycle checks, audit events, MFA-capable security controls and controlled API and webhook credentials.

Can Wharvex integrate with other systems?

Yes. Tenant API keys, outbound webhooks and managed integrations support controlled connections to external systems.

How do we get started?

Create a workspace or contact the platform team to discuss your operating model, users, modules, data migration and rollout.

Resolve the key questions before starting

The public FAQs explain how to find information, prepare enquiries and distinguish platform tools from provider services. Start with the task you want to complete. Questions about a specific offer should be directed to the provider that published it.

Finding information

Use product and service discovery to locate relevant offers, then review the detail pages and provider profiles. Calculators can help organise measurements and estimates. If a specification, rate condition or document is missing, include that gap in your enquiry.

Understanding estimates

An estimate uses the inputs and assumptions available at the time. It may not include every service or condition relevant to your shipment or purchase. Ask the provider to confirm the final scope, units, currency, validity and exclusions before relying on the result.

Getting further help

Use the platform contact form for software and onboarding questions. Use the provider enquiry flow for operational work. For an existing workspace, include the record reference and a concise description of the issue when requesting help through the appropriate support channel.

Questions before you proceed

How can I get a useful quote?
Describe the product or service, origin and destination, quantities, dimensions, timing and any special handling. Include the assumptions behind your estimate so providers can respond on a comparable basis.
What should I confirm before proceeding?
Ask the selected provider to confirm the scope, currency, exclusions, validity, required documents and next steps in writing. A published listing or planning estimate is not a confirmed booking or purchase order.
