How it works
We calculate the expected charge
Expected amount is the agreed rate multiplied by the contracted quantity, then compared against the amount actually billed to find the variance.
Get a variance and match-confidence score
The result shows the dollar and percentage variance plus a 0–100 match-confidence score that falls as the variance grows, with a clear approve/review/hold verdict.

Frequently asked questions
Does FreightBill Match connect to my invoicing or ERP system?
No. FreightBill Match computes results only from the figures you enter manually — it does not connect to live invoicing, accounts-payable, or ERP/spend-management systems. It is a standalone check, not an automated audit feed.
What counts as the "expected amount"?
It is your agreed or contracted rate multiplied by the contracted quantity or weight — the charge you should see on the invoice if the terms were followed exactly.
What does a negative variance mean?
A negative variance means the invoice billed less than expected (potential underbilling). A positive variance means it billed more than expected (potential overbilling).
Why does the match-confidence score drop so fast?
The score subtracts four times the absolute variance percentage from 100, so even a moderate discrepancy pulls the score down quickly — this is intentional, since freight billing errors are usually meant to be caught early.
Can I use this for partial shipments or split invoices?
Yes — enter the billed and contracted quantities for the specific shipment or invoice line you are checking rather than a full order total.
Is this a replacement for a freight audit service?
No. It is a quick manual check for a single invoice. A dedicated freight audit provider or your accounts-payable process should still handle systematic, ongoing invoice auditing.
