How often is foreign trade shipment data updated?
— Shipments are uploaded regularly — typically 2-4 times a month we load updated data (for the previous calendar month) found in open sources. Therefore, not all shipments always have the same level of detail. All timelines are flexible.
We specialize in Russia's foreign trade, so data on shipments from other countries is a bonus, the updating of which is not guaranteed.
Can I sign a contract and pay via bank transfer?
— Unfortunately, we no longer have representatives in Russia. Therefore, this form of payment is currently not possible.
The concept of cryptocurrency is new to me. And in general, everything is unclear. Please explain in more detail.
— Actually, everything is very simple. Through a crypto exchange, you buy USDT with your bank card, and this amount is automatically credited to our account. The process itself is similar to a card-to-card transfer through a regular banking app. We receive payment and activate the selected services according to the tariff. One note: we do not recommend purchasing cryptocurrency with a corporate card, as the bank may consider the transaction suspicious and block it.
I made a payment. What's next?
— Send a screenshot of the payment or transaction ID to your personal consultant via email or website chat. Within half an hour, the payment will be credited and all services activated.
How can I contact you by phone?
