From a single parcel to the whole hold.

Whatever your customers ship — courier packets, trader cartons, or full-load contracts — PortWala prices it, books it, and tracks it on your existing departures.

How it works

From counter to consignee, in four steps.

STEP 01

Book the parcel

Counter, agent app, or customer link. Rate auto-applied from your route card, LR printed in 30 seconds.

STEP 02

Load & manifest

Scan each piece onto the bus. The driver carries a digital manifest — no loose chits, no missing cartons.

STEP 03

Track in transit

Bus GPS feeds every LR. Customers get WhatsApp updates automatically at each milestone.

STEP 04

Deliver & settle

OTP + photo POD at handover. To-Pay and COD amounts reconcile into your daily settlement report.

Platform

Built for operators, not brochures.

Rate engine

Route cards that price themselves

Set per-kg slabs, minimums, and parcel-type surcharges once per route. Every counter, agent, and franchise then quotes the same rate — no undercutting, no leakage.

  • Weight slabs, minimums & fragile/perishable surcharges
  • Agent-wise commission baked into every LR
  • Seasonal rate revisions pushed to all counters instantly

Smart documents

LR, e-way bill, and GST invoice — automatic

Every booking generates a printed-or-WhatsApp LR. Cross ₹50,000 in consignment value and PortWala files the e-way bill from the customer's GSTIN before the bus leaves.

  • Thermal-printer LRs with QR tracking code
  • E-way bill auto-generated & linked to the vehicle number
  • Monthly consolidated GST invoices for B2B clients

  • UPI QR on every LR for instant collection
  • Counter-wise and agent-wise daily settlement
  • COD remittance to B2B clients on a fixed cycle

"Cargo was always side income written in a register. With PortWala it became a proper division — 22 buses, 9 counters, and every LR accounted for. We added ₹11 lakh a month without adding a single bus."

"E-way bills used to scare my counter boys, so they refused trader cartons. Now PortWala files it automatically and B2B part-load is our fastest growing revenue line."
