How it Works

1. Sign Up and Profile Creation:

   - Begin by signing up for an account on Mariners On-Demand. Create a detailed profile that highlights your shipping needs or available shipping spots. The more information you provide, the better we can match you with suitable partners.

2. Browse Open Shipping Spots or List Your Availability:

   - Shippers can explore our platform to find open shipping spots posted by others. Alternatively, if you have available shipping spots, list them on our platform, specifying details such as departure location, destination, and any specific requirements.

3. Connect and Communicate:

   - Once you find a potential match or someone expresses interest in your shipping spot, use our messaging feature to communicate and discuss the details. This ensures clear communication and helps both parties understand each other's requirements.

4. Agree on Terms:

   - Reach an agreement on the terms of the shipping arrangement. This may include logistics, timelines, and any special considerations. It's essential to have a transparent and mutually beneficial understanding before proceeding.

5. Secure Transactions and Documentation:

   - Mariners On-Demand provides a secure platform for transactions related to shipping arrangements. Ensure that all necessary documentation, such as permits or certifications, is exchanged and verified through our platform to facilitate a smooth process.

6. Track and Confirm Shipments:

   - Track your shipments in real-time through our platform. Shippers and those with available shipping spots can receive updates on the status of the shipment, ensuring transparency and accountability throughout the process.

7. Rate and Review:

   - After the shipment is completed, both parties have the opportunity to rate and review each other. This feedback system builds a trustworthy community, allowing users to make informed decisions when engaging in future shipping arrangements.

8. Continuous Improvement:

   - Mariners On-Demand is committed to continuously improving our platform. We value user feedback and use it to enhance our services, making it even easier for shippers and shipping spot providers to connect efficiently.
