Frequently asked questions

Hopstack 3PL Billing FAQs

Common questions about how Hopstack Billing fits existing 3PL systems and billing workflows.

Is Hopstack 3PL Billing only for Hopstack WMS customers?

No. Billing will be native to Hopstack WMS, while open APIs and operational data ingestion let 3PLs connect activity from another WMS or an internal warehouse system without replacing it.

What types of 3PL charges can the product handle?

The product is designed around warehouse-specific commercial structures such as per-unit rates, flat fees, tiers, minimum charges, percentage-based fees, cost-plus arrangements, and conditional charges.

How does AI fit into the billing workflow?

AI assists with reading rate cards and structuring commercial terms into billing rules for review. Anything unclear can be reviewed before activation, while billing calculations remain deterministic and traceable.

Do we have to set up every client's rate card ourselves?

The rate-card import flow is designed to reduce manual setup by structuring terms from the source document for review. Teams can then edit and version the resulting charges as commercial terms change.

Can billing teams add manual adjustments?

Yes. Billing workflows support additional charges, credits, and one-time adjustments alongside calculated operational charges.

Can we see why a specific charge was calculated?

That is a core part of the product model. A calculated charge can be connected back to the activity, quantity, billing unit, rate, rate-card version, billing period, and adjustment history that produced it.
