If you process DAs in shipping, we can help 

Our aim is to help you save money, improve efficiencies, enhance compliance and provide transparency on your disbursement accounts. DA-Desk automates your port cost management processes in one easy platform. From agent appointment to voyage closing, from managing payments to maintaining regulatory maritime compliance, we offer an end-to-end digitalised service to help reduce the stress of port cost management. DA-Desk integrates directly with your existing Voyage Management System (VMS) to elevate your disbursement account process to help you work faster and smarter.

What is DA-Desk and how do we work? 

We provide one simple platform to automate all of your disbursement accounts and payments. The process is straightforward with only three touchpoints needed from you:

• Touch 1 – Appoint the agent that you want whether that be your own preferred one or using our directory of over 10,000 agents.
• Touch 2 – Approve the PDA
• Touch 3 – Approve the FDA

Benefits of our disbursement account platform

The four foundations of DA-Desk are risk reduction, smart operations, reduced costs and VMS integration and these are just a few of the many benefits that our system offers.

Smart operations

Remove the need for paperwork and lengthy operational tasks by elevating your operational efficiency. Our system removes the need for manual processes such as managing payments, validating both PDAs and FDAs and compliance checks.

VMS integration

Our DA-Desk integration system (DIS) supports a high-quality data integration between both VMS and DA-Desk.  DA-Desk integrates seamlessly into all major VMSs.

Risk reduction

Maritime compliance is at the heart of everything we do as we understand how complex and potentially costly this can be. DA-Desk helps to mitigate your financial, legal, transactional, regulatory and operational risks.
