FAQ
What is EDI?
EDI is the electronic exchange of business documents like purchase orders, invoices, and shipping notices between companies in a standardized format.1 It allows businesses to automate and streamline transactions with trading partners, reducing manual data entry and associated errors.
How does EDI work?
- Trading partners agree on EDI standards and set up a connection
- One partner creates an electronic business document (e.g. purchase order)
- The document is translated into the agreed EDI format
- The formatted document is transmitted to the receiving partner’s system
- The receiving system translates and integrates the document data

Is this an alternative to SPS Commerce?
Yes! Our solution can connect to any business with EDI capability. Time and time again, we’ve talked to customers who are frustrated by SPS. They rightly complain that SPS is difficult to work with, especially during implementation. They also confirm SPS costs are prohibitive.
We created our EDI solution to eliminate the time, effort, and sacrifice of connecting and getting orders from Home Decor, Gifts, Furniture, and Garden products wholesalers to retail partners.
What are the costs of your EDI solution?
We’ve benchmarked the entire EDI industry in the USA. We’ve set our costs to you lower than any other EDI vendor.
We charge a $200 set-up fee for each document we have to implement, e.g., 850, 846, 855, etc. Then, an ongoing fee of $350 a month gives you up to 1,000 documents a month.
Additional channels to Trading Partners:
Providing you’re using the same document types, e.g., 850 (Customer Purchase Order), 855 (Customer Purchase Order Acknowledgement), and 810 (Customer Invoice), you don’t pay for implementing these documents again, and your ongoing costs don’t change.
This means you can add multiple trading partners and send and receive up to 1,000 documents without increasing your costs (up to 1,000 documents).
Beyond 1000 documents, we’ll agree on a per-transaction charge allowance. We’ll advise you on the incremental ongoing fees if you’re sending and receiving thousands of documents.
