Cass Information Systems Forms Strategic Partnership with Brazilian Firm Lupeon to Drive Global Growth

Partnership demonstrates continued commitment
to deliver best practices and global visibility to multinational
clients
Cass Information Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CASS) (“Cass”), the
leading global provider of freight audit and payment solutions, has
announced a partnership with Lupeon, Brazil’s leading freight audit
provider, to deliver an in-region solution for Cass’s global client
base.
U.S.-based Cass provides a global solution covering all other
regions of South America. In Brazil, unique regulatory requirements
for freight charges necessitate a highly distinct process. An
invoice can include federal, regional, and city taxes, as well as
tolls and insurance. Additionally, to combat fraud, carriers file
invoices with the Brazilian tax authority, who in turn issues the
invoice to the shipper.
“Our clients, many of whom operate in Brazil, prefer a single
platform for global visibility into their freight spend. The Lupeon
solution allows this, no matter where our clients are located,”
said Kees de Jongh, vice president of Cass’s freight audit and
payment group. “It makes more sense to partner with Lupeon rather
than continue to scale on our own. Not only is this the most
efficient approach, it’s also the one that will deliver the best
client experience.”
Client support and carrier onboarding will be provided locally
by Lupeon, with a roll-up to a global Cass account manager. Other
aspects of the solution, such as reporting, will be seamless
through Cass.
“Our commitment to Brazilian companies and our ambition to lead
freight audit innovations in this market led us to this partnership
with Cass,” said José Fernando Abreu, CEO of Lupeon. “By combining
our localized expertise with Cass’s global footprint, we can offer
unparalleled service to our multinational clients.”
This news follows two recent product expansions from Cass:
Amplify by Cass™, a working capital solution for shippers and
carriers, and an integration partnership with SONAR for advanced
market intelligence.
