Invite suppliers

With Invite suppliers, your suppliers can book freight on your Sendify account number, using your agreements and your prices. You keep full visibility and control.

What is Invite suppliers?

Sometimes you want a supplier to ship goods to you, but on your terms. With this feature, your supplier books the freight on your Sendify account number. That means they use your Sendify agreements and prices, and the freight cost lands on your account.

Your supplier does not need their own account with freight agreements — they book on yours. You decide who gets invited, and you see everything that is booked.

Full visibility and control

Every shipment your suppliers book on your account number appears in your shipment list, just like your own bookings. Nothing is booked out of sight. You see everything all your suppliers book — and each supplier sees only their own shipments.

Among other things, you can:

See every shipment booked on your account number.
Track shipments directly in Sendify.
Cancel a shipment if something has gone wrong.

Because the freight cost lands on your account, you have the final say. You carry responsibility for what is booked, and Sendify gives you full control to match.

How to invite a supplier

person_add

Go to Suppliers in the menu.
No Sendify account number yet? Create one first — that is the number your suppliers will book on.
Click Invite suppliers and fill in the supplier's company name, first and last name, and email address.
Choose a pre-filled recipient address. That address is filled in automatically for the supplier when they book, so they do not have to type it themselves.
Click Send. Your supplier receives an email with an invitation.

The supplier appears in your list with a status:

Status	What it means
Pending	The invitation has been sent but not yet accepted.
Active	The supplier has accepted and can book.
Expired	The invitation was not accepted in time.

Can my supplier see my prices?

You always see the prices on everything that is booked. The Show prices toggle lets you decide whether your supplier sees the freight cost for what they book, or not.

How your supplier experiences it

Once you send an invitation, your supplier receives an email with a link. What happens next depends on whether they already use Sendify.

1New to Sendify

A guest account is created automatically and they are logged in straight away. No registration or payment details required.

2Already on Sendify

They choose which of their accounts to connect to your account number.

After that, the supplier can book straight away, with your recipient address already filled in. They pay nothing themselves — the cost sits on your account.

info

What the supplier can see and do. The supplier has full access to their own shipments and can cancel them or rebook the pickup. They see only their own bookings — never yours or those of other suppliers.

Frequently asked questions

Who pays for the supplier's shipments?

You do. When a supplier books on your account number, the freight cost lands on your account.

Does my supplier need a Sendify account?

No. If they do not have one, a guest account is created automatically when they accept the invitation.

What is a guest account?

A simple account created for a supplier who is new to Sendify, so they can book on your account number without registering or adding payment details.

Can I cancel a shipment my supplier booked?

Yes. All shipments on your account number appear in your shipment list, and you can cancel them just like your own.
