Pricing for Notifications

There are two parts to this cost:

  1. Users must be signed up to Subscribed Track & Trace which is a monthly charge of

...

  1. $118 excl.

...

  1. GST. 

  2. Notifications cost $0.20 per Notification. Users can sign up for as many or as few Notification event types (called Notification Defaults) as they like and based on this multiple Notification events could be sent for a single container.

e.g. If a user signed up to receive Notifications for Discharge and Gate-Out events then for Import containers they would receive two Notifications per container for a total cost of $0.40.

  • The monthly subscription provides users with access to the detailed container information that PortConnect holds.

  • Notifications provide users with access to automated updates when events occur against containers. Notifications are in an XML format that allows users to automatically process this information into their system rather than manually checking the website – the per Notification cost covers the cost of providing this service.

  • Note, there is no charge for sending registration of interest (ROI) messages, only for receiving Notifications.

...

Setting up Notifications Defaults

...

NOTE: You need to set up your Notification Defaults first before you register containers. You can see Instructions on setting up your defaults are above.

...

Requesting Notifications via B2B ROI

...

PortConnect has an API (Application Programme Interface) version of the notifications functionality providing a new, more modern way of sending and retrieving data from PortConnect. You can read more about this on our API Developer's GuideDocumentation.

...

Receiving Notifications

How long it takes for the status to be sent?

  1. Within 30minutes of the event occurring in the port internal system, OR

  2. Within 15minutes of the event being recorded in PortConnect

Once you have requested a notification on a container, notification emails will start being sent to the nominated email address. The first email will include all the events/changes that you have signed up for and have already occurred against the container. Future emails will include any new events/changes that have occurred against the container.
