...

Any containers supplied replace all existing containers in the subscription.

You can update the port code, category, event type and facility codes if you wish, but this isn't recommended as a different subscription id can result, possibly causing confusion.

Example

For instance, subscription id 3 w can be updated to include containers:

...

  • $0.05NZD per call if not subscribed to Track & Trace
  • Free for Subscribed Track & Trace users

Container Visits

  • $0.05NZD per container/per call (max 10 containers per call) when searching containers directly.

Container Event Subscriptions

  • $0.20NZD per event update (Notification) sent*
  • Includes 1 free callback to the container visit URL to retrieve standing container data (provided in the callback payload).
*High volume users may qualify for preferred customer discounts.
