CargoVault

How CargoVault works

A verified B2B cargo marketplace with binding bids and manual escrow — from sign-up to settlement in five steps.

  1. STEP 1

    Register and verify your company

    Sign up with your business email, submit VAT and company type. Our team approves verified B2B accounts within 24 hours.

  2. STEP 2

    List your cargo or browse auctions

    Sellers publish lots with photos, documents and a reserve price. Buyers filter by category, port, price and verified status.

  3. STEP 3

    Bid or create a private deal

    Place legally binding bids on public auctions, or invite a specific counterparty to a private bilateral negotiation.

  4. STEP 4

    Funds frozen in escrow on agreement

    When a winning bid is accepted, the buyer wires funds to CargoVault's escrow account. The seller ships only after we confirm receipt.

  5. STEP 5

    Goods confirmed → funds released

    Once the buyer confirms delivery in-app, escrow is released to the seller. Both parties leave a public trust score.
