Now, keep your hand up if you also enjoy overpaying for years until your EDI VAN provider suddenly “discovers” they can offer you a lower rate. No takers? Didn’t think so.
If your provider only offers you a discount after you bring them a lower quote from a competitor, chances are you’ve been overpaying for years. But how much have you actually overpaid? Let’s break it down.
Start by looking at your VAN invoices from the past year. Identify your average monthly bill before any recent “discounts” were applied.
Compare your costs with a provider like BOLD VAN. Our pricing is transparent, fair, and designed to save businesses thousands. Scalable EDI pricing is key to ensuring you don’t pay more than necessary as your business grows. If your current provider suddenly slashes their rates when you mention leaving, that’s a red flag.
Use this simple formula to estimate how much extra you’ve paid over time:
(Old Monthly Bill – New Monthly Bill) x Number of Months You’ve Been Overpaying = Total Overpayment
For example:
($1,000 - $600) x 36 = $14,400 Overpaid
That’s $14,400 straight out of your company’s pocket — all because your VAN provider was comfortable charging you more until you spoke up.
If your EDI VAN could afford to give you a lower rate all along, why didn’t they? The answer is simple: They were profiting off your loyalty.
By staying after they “miraculously” offer a discount, you’re reinforcing the idea that they can continue to overcharge you until you challenge them. That’s why more and more businesses are making the switch to BOLD VAN — where fair pricing isn’t a negotiation tactic, it’s our standard, with scalable EDI pricing that grows with your business needs.
Don’t wait until you’ve overpaid for another year. Get a fair price from the start with BOLD VAN and stop letting big-name VANs dictate your costs.
