Our livestock team is here to help you every step of the way on your first or 50th trip through Trading. Our secure payment flow guarantees that you won't be out of pocket by protecting your money until the animals arrive on your farm and making sure you are paid once you've sold them.

The Trading status bar will show you on web and mobile exactly what step is next and what action you are required to do to move the trade forward. The app will notify you via a push notification when there is an update and you'll also receive an email so you're always up to date.

Once the selling farmer has marked the animals as shipped and the buyer farmer has marked the animals as received the status bar will change to complete. This allows the transfer of animal data from the selling farmer to the buying farmer. Data such as weights and medicine usage will transfer. If the buying farmer is BCMS connected and has opted into do movements these animals will automatically appear on your regulatory dashboard ready for you to approve and send the movement directly onto BCMS.

Charlie from our Livestock team is on hand to support you at any stage of the process. Give him a call on 07385615137.
