PayCargo, LLC

PayCargo, LLC is a fintech platform for the global logistics and freight industry, providing digital freight-payment processing, accounts-payable automation, and supply-chain payment visibility. Founded in 2007, PayCargo connects payers (shippers, freight forwarders, cargo owners) with vendors (carriers, terminals, warehouses, and other logistics providers) so freight charges can be paid electronically via ACH, credit card, or prepaid funds for faster cargo release. The platform spans ocean, air, and intermodal freight and offers products including PayCargo Payments, AP Automation, the Container Payment Portal, PayCargo Finance, and document/response automation. PayCargo exposes a partner-facing API (GET/POST) for retrieving charges due, processing payments, and reconciling transactions directly from a customer's own accounting/TMS systems, alongside EDI and SFTP integration options. API access is provisioned to partners rather than published as an open developer portal.

More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles PayCargo, LLC the way a machine reads it — 2 machine-readable artifacts across 1 API, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — PayCargo, LLC scores 29.0/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile PayCargo, LLC

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for PayCargo, LLC. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 1

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

Security Posture 1

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
