# **Reliable Contracts**

### Secure better contract rates with Reliable Contracts, a dynamic contract that guarantees the best rate and 100% PTA in *any* market condition.

[Talk to a Transportation Specialist](https://lp.loadsmart.com/reliable-contracts#form-anchor)

## Unlike traditional contracts, Reliable Contracts incentivize shipper savings.

The future of contract pricing is dynamic. Loadsmart's Reliable Contracts offer margin incentives to ensure we always pursue the lowest available rate. Our margins only go up when your costs go down. Shippers provide Loadsmart with committed volume and in return, shippers gain 100% PTA in any market condition, the best available rate, and guaranteed service.

##### Fair & Transparent Rates

We share what we pay on every load.

> “When we use this solution, we’re likely getting a better deal. We can ride the market down with Loadsmart, whereas if we had a contracted rate, we’re not actively capturing the benefit of riding that wave down. We share the risk as we both have skin in the game.”
