[Spot & Tender](https://help.g2mint.com/en/g2mint-user-guide/spot-tender?hsLang=en) January 12, 2026 # Spot Quote & Tender for Shipper Guests ## A guide for Brokers to enable and manage spot quote requests for Shipper Guests ### Feature Highlights: ### For Shipper Guests: - **Spot Tab added to the Rate Draw screen:**  Access is enabled for **Shipper Client Guest** and **Shipper Client Guest w/ Agreements** personas to request spot quotes and tenders directly from the broker. ![](https://help.g2mint.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-11-2026-02-45-14-7271-PM.png?width=670&height=231&name=image-png-Jan-11-2026-02-45-14-7271-PM.png) - Shipper Guests can only request and view spot requests from the **Broker** by default. - What if a broker wants to enable access for their shipper guest to send spot quotes directly to specific carriers? Specific carriers must be manually activated by the broker in the new **Spot tab located  in the Engage Client Account** under the Agreements\>Freight\>Spot tab**.** - **New Spot Grid:** A dedicated section in the **Client Account** allows users to toggle carrier visibility (inactive by default). ### For Brokers - **Spot & Tender Page:** A new grid that will eventually enable the broker to manage and respond to all incoming spot and tender requests from guests. - Note: Currently, this grid is primarily used to see any pending requests waiting for the Broker to submit a rate via the email link received. - **Tender Management:** Accepting a tender now **locks all charges** without immediately awarding the shipment. Financials are generated only upon the final award. - **How to enable additional carriers for your Shipper Client?** Go to **Engage\>Accounts\>Agreements**, there is a "Spot" tab under **Agreements → Freight** to manage which carriers are visible to for each specific Shipper Client account.   **Note:** By Default, a Shipper Guest will be given access to only submit a Spot to you, the Broker.  To activate additional Carriers, it must be done on an account-by-account basis (Engage\>Accounts\>Select Shipper Account Name\>Agreements\>Freight\>Spot\>activate via the 'Availability' toggle option next to each of your Carriers).  ![](https://help.g2mint.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-11-2026-02-51-46-1571-PM.png?width=670&height=225&name=image-png-Jan-11-2026-02-51-46-1571-PM.png) ### How it works? 1. **Guest Shipper builds a Shipment or Load,** selects 'Get Rates' and goes to the **'Spot'** tab within the Rate Draw screen. 2. **Guest Shipper selects the 'Request' button** to request a Spot Rate from the Broker. ![](https://help.g2mint.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-02-2026-08-09-27-7949-PM.png?width=670&height=125&name=image-png-Jan-02-2026-08-09-27-7949-PM.png) 3. **Broker sees the Spot Request and receives an email:** Upon the Shipper Guest selecting 'Request', a Spot Request appears in the '**Spot & Tender'** tab with a status of 'Pending' for the Broker and the specified broker contact(s) receive a request email with a link to enter a rate. 1. The **'Spot & Tender'** page is a collection of Spot Requests from Guest Shippers with a status of Pending. *(All action by the broker must be taken via the email link to submit the rate-Future enhancements will enable additional options via the grid)* 2. The broker contact(s) with the contact type of **'Spot**' (or the Default contact, if none assigned) receives an email requesting a Bid. ![](https://help.g2mint.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-02-2026-08-13-50-0397-PM.png?width=670&height=263&name=image-png-Jan-02-2026-08-13-50-0397-PM.png) 4. **Broker will need to enter the bid through the email link** *(future functionality will allow the Broker to enter the bid through the Spot & Tender grid as well)*.  The required fields to Submit a Bid are **Submitted By** and **Cost**. ![](https://help.g2mint.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-02-2026-08-20-56-8633-PM.png?width=338&height=230&name=image-png-Jan-02-2026-08-20-56-8633-PM.png) ![](https://help.g2mint.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-02-2026-08-24-14-8771-PM.png?width=434&height=433&name=image-png-Jan-02-2026-08-24-14-8771-PM.png) 5. Once the bid is entered by the Broker through the email link provided, the Shipment moves to the Manage\>Shipments grid.  The assigned Rate can be viewed in the Rate Drawer by the Shipper. ![](https://help.g2mint.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-02-2026-08-30-20-0717-PM.png?width=670&height=65&name=image-png-Jan-02-2026-08-30-20-0717-PM.png) 6. The Shipper can now 'Tender' the shipment, which will send an email to the Broker, allowing the Broker to accept the Tender to complete the Spot Quote process. - [Getting started](https://help.g2mint.com/en/g2mint-user-guide/getting-started?hsLang=en#main-content) -
