Border Buddy CargoWise Integration
Gravit-e was originally tasked by Border Buddy to create an integration between their proprietary lead management system and a new customs brokerage management system being introduced in Canada. Following an initial discovery and requirements analysis phase, a solution based on a new middleware application was recommended. We proceeded with the development of this middleware, which serves as an integration hub for all of Border Buddy’s essential tools and services, including Cargowise, NxGen, Stripe, Xero, and their proprietary lead management system. In addition, a Shopify marketplace app was created as a new sales channel for Border Buddy, enabling US merchants to sell to Canadian customers with all customs and duty costs prepaid. This app connects with the middleware to automatically transfer all necessary data into the brokerage management software whenever a new transaction occurs in the merchant’s Shopify store. Gravit-e also offers continuous support, maintenance, and devops services to manage the production hosting environment for the middleware and the Shopify application.
