Book it Now 
Book it Now allows you to immediately book any shipment that displays the Book it Now icon right away (at the stated Book it Now price), without ever having to wait for the shipper's approval of your bid! This means you can get contact information and start scheduling trips faster than ever, without having to worry if and when your bid will be accepted. Our new Book it Now requirements for transportation service providers are a feedback score of at least 10 with at least 90% positive feedback - so be sure to maintain your feedback at or above these minimums to continue to remain eligible for Book it Now.
Ship it Now 
Can you provide automated quotes through an API or rate table? If so, the Ship it Now tool is perfect for your business. Qualified and approved providers are able to integrate directly into the uShip platform and provide automated bids on every shipment listed in a single or multiple categories depending on the type of transport they provide. Automate your bids and let the business come to you!
Group Bidding
Group bidding is an advanced bidding tool that allows qualified* Service Providers to bid on multiple shipments without the risk of overbooking and incurring cancellations. With group bidding, you can "group" multiple shipments and set a limit on how many bids from that group you can service. Once you reach that limit, uShip will automatically cancel all other bids from that group.
