100%zero-emission goal
Trackingstatus at every step (live GPS map coming)

Use Procurement, Distribution, or both - on a single business account, with no obligation to combine them.

Two business services. One dashboard.

Source from our network of verified suppliers, distribute your own products through our delivery network, or do both from the same account. Every shipment - yours or a supplier's - moves through the same ODA driver network working toward a zero-emission objective, with a rate disclosed before you confirm.

WHY CHOOSE OCSAPP

Everything your business needs, delivered.

01

Procurement requests

Submit a single request spanning multiple suppliers - OCSAPP coordinates procurement and consolidates delivery into one shipment.

02

Shipments tracked at every step

Every shipment is tracked end to end by our ODA driver network, from pickup to proof of delivery. The live GPS map is coming.

03

Recurring routes

Set up recurring delivery routes for your regular restocking - no need to submit a new request every time.

Two services, one account, fully transparent.

What every business can count on, regardless of which service you use.

No hidden markup on supplier prices - ever

✓

Every delivery moves through OCSAPP's own ODA network - never a third-party carrier

✓

Use Procurement, Distribution, or both, with no obligation to combine them

Dedicated account support

A dedicated team and built-in messaging to answer your questions and resolve any issue quickly.

Team access (coming soon)

Coming soon: add team members with role-based permissions, to separate procurement, finance, and receiving access.

Spend analytics

Monthly and quarterly spend reports by supplier and category. Identify your top suppliers and savings opportunities.

Supplier messaging

Communicate directly with suppliers through the portal for order clarifications, custom quotes, or delivery scheduling - all logged and searchable.

Surcharges - disclosed before you confirm, never a surprise

Some requests or shipments carry a surcharge on top of the base fee. Each one is calculated automatically and shown before you confirm.

Oversize order surcharge

Above 25 kg (25-50 kg base band): $10.00 / $11.25 / $12.50 by zone, plus a $5.00 / $5.63 / $6.25 increment per additional 10 kg beyond 50 kg. Standard maximum: 100 kg.

Additional-stop fee

Procurement: $4.00 / $4.50 / $5.00 per supplier beyond the first two. Distribution: same rate, per delivery stop beyond the first two (all tiers).

Long-distance surcharge

Beyond 10 km of routed distance: $10.00 / $11.25 / $12.50, plus a $5.00 / $5.63 / $6.25 increment per additional 5 km beyond 15 km. Standard maximum: 30 km.

Weight: never yours to declare

For Procurement, weight comes from each supplier's own product listing. For Distribution, it comes from your own shipment data at creation - nothing to estimate either way.

You can dispute it

You have 5 business days to dispute a surcharge or charge, directly from the Business Dashboard, with supporting evidence.

Funded by the transaction, not by OCSAPP

These surcharges fund the ODA delivery network - they create no additional cost for OCSAPP and only apply when an order or shipment exceeds the standard threshold.

CUSTOM PRICING

High, consistent volume? Let's talk custom contracts.

For businesses with high, predictable order volume:

  • OCSAPP may offer volume-based pricing, negotiated terms, or custom delivery arrangements to business clients with consistent, high-volume orders.
  • This arrangement takes the form of a written addendum to your business account agreement - in its absence, standard tier pricing (below) applies.
  • To discuss custom pricing, contact info@ocsapp.ca with your estimated monthly volume and product categories.

Contact Us

Note: You can use Procurement alone, Distribution alone, or both together on the same business account. A flat delivery fee of $19 (West Island), $21 (Laval), or $24 (Greater Montreal), by zone, applies to each shipment on every Distribution tier, in addition to the distribution fee. The distribution fee percentage is the same in every zone; only the delivery fee and surcharges vary by zone.

Payment processing fee: 2.9% + $0.30 CAD. With Distribution, the business account absorbs this fee: it is added to each shipment invoice, itemized separately, and is never charged to your own customers. With Procurement, the business account pays no processing fee: the supplier absorbs it.

Why the Pro rate is higher: Pro's rate reflects the added logistics of multi-location routing and recurring-route optimization, not a reduced-value tier.

PAYMENT & CREDIT TERMS

How net-30 terms work

Net terms aren't available immediately on activation - here's exactly how to become eligible.

Qualification period

Pay by card, PayPal, or EFT for your first 3 completed orders and your first 30 days of account activity - both are required - before becoming eligible for net-30 terms.

Credit check

Before extending net-30 terms, OCSAPP conducts a business credit check through a recognized bureau (Equifax Canada or Dun & Bradstreet Canada), with your authorization.

Credit limits by account type

Procurement-only or Starter: $2,500. Pro: $10,000. Enterprise: negotiated individually. Increases available case-by-case based on your payment history.

Card on file required

A valid card stays on file at all times, regardless of the payment method chosen per order - a backstop if a net invoice remains unpaid 5 business days past due.

Deposit on large orders

For an order exceeding 50% of your approved credit limit, a deposit of up to 50% of the order value may be required before processing.

Maintaining eligibility

Net terms may be suspended after 15 days past due, two or more late payments in 12 months, or a material drop in credit standing. Reinstatement is at OCSAPP's discretion.

Late payment interest

An invoice not paid by its due date accrues interest from the due date until paid in full. The rate is 18% per year (1.5% per month), as stated in your Business Account Agreement and on your invoice.

INSURANCE

Insurance requirements for Distribution

Only applies if you use Distribution - Procurement-only accounts are exempt:

  • Starter tier: minimum $1,000,000 commercial general liability
  • Pro tier: minimum $2,000,000 commercial general liability
  • Enterprise tier: minimum $2,000,000, up to $5,000,000 depending on volume and product category
  • Product liability coverage required if you distribute food, produce, or consumable goods

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know.

How do I register my business?

Click "Register Your Business," complete NEQ verification, and your account is activated once approved.

How does procurement work?

Submit a request listing the products and quantities you need. OCSAPP sources from your suppliers, consolidates the order, and confirms pricing before shipment.

Can I set up recurring deliveries?

Yes, with the Distribution Pro tier or above, or during your Founding period if you are a Founding Partner - set up a recurring route to automate your restocking on your chosen schedule. Pause, resume, or cancel anytime from your dashboard.

How much does it cost?

Procurement is free (1% fee, no monthly subscription) - we source from our suppliers for you. Distribution is a separate service for your own products, with Starter, Pro, and Enterprise tiers. Use one, the other, or both. No hidden markup on products.

Can I track my shipment?

Yes. You follow the status of every shipment at each step, from pickup to delivery, in your dashboard, with proof of delivery. The live GPS map is coming.

How does payment work?

Pay by card, PayPal, EFT, or net-30 terms once eligible - see the Payment & Credit Terms section above for exact conditions. You receive a purchase order, bill of lading, and invoice for every transaction.

What happens if a supplier can't fulfill an item?

We contact you immediately to approve a substitute or adjust the order before shipment. You always have the final say.

What zones are served?

We currently serve the West Island, with expansion planned to Laval and Greater Montreal. Contact us to check availability in your area.

Is there a minimum order size?

Minimum order quantities (MOQs) are set by individual suppliers and vary by product - they're clearly displayed in the catalog before you order. There's no platform-level minimum.

Can I negotiate pricing directly with suppliers?

Yes. For large or recurring orders, you can request custom quotes directly from suppliers through the portal's messaging feature. OCSAPP can also facilitate contract pricing negotiations for high-volume accounts - contact info@ocsapp.ca.

Can I add multiple team members?

Coming soon. Role-based team access is in development. For now, each business account has a single login; email support@ocsapp.ca if you need help in the meantime.

Do surcharges affect my base fees?

No - they're added on top of standard fees only when an order exceeds a threshold (weight, distance, or stop count), and are always disclosed before you confirm. They never change your procurement or distribution fee rate.

What happens if one of my customers reports an issue with a Distribution shipment?

The same automated photo evidence system determines whether the issue occurred before pickup (your product or packaging) or in transit. If it's determined to be your fault, a Dynamic Chargeback - the reverse-logistics fee plus the claimed value - is applied to your next payout or invoice. You're never charged for an issue that occurred in transit, which OCSAPP absorbs directly. You have 5 business days to dispute, with the right to an explanation and a human review of any automated decision.

Do I need insurance?

Only if you use Distribution. Requirements vary by tier ($1,000,000 minimum for Starter, up to $5,000,000 for Enterprise depending on volume) - see the Insurance section above. Procurement-only accounts have no insurance requirement.

How are disputes with OCSAPP resolved?

OCSAPP and your business will first attempt to resolve any dispute through good-faith negotiation. If unresolved within 30 days, it may be submitted to the courts of the judicial district of Montréal, Québec, to whose exclusive jurisdiction you and OCSAPP submit. OCSAPP does not require mandatory arbitration in your agreement.

What legal requirements apply to my business?

Every business account needs a NEQ, GST/QST registration (unless it qualifies as a small supplier), compliance with the Charter of the French Language (Bill 96) in its signage and communications, and the certificate of occupancy (certificat d'occupation) its city or borough requires for its premises. Depending on your size and activity, you're also responsible for:

Enterprise register: keeping your registration up to date, including the declaration of ultimate beneficiaries.

CNESST: registering as an employer if you have employees, and following workplace health and safety rules.

Francization: completing the Office québécois de la langue française (OQLF) francization process if you have 25 or more employees in Quebec.

Environment: an MELCCFP authorization (section 22 of the Environment Quality Act) if your operations release contaminants or wastewater.

Zoning: operating in a zone that permits your activity, with the certificates your municipality requires.

This summary is a guide, not legal advice.

How does the Founding Partner Program work?

The Founding Partner program has 5 places for business accounts. A place is reserved for your business account when it is created, in the order in which business accounts are created, while places remain, for accounts created on or before December 31, 2026. It is confirmed when your account is approved. A place reserved for an account with no registration document on file after 30 days is released. You do not need to apply separately. Once your place is confirmed, you get the Distribution Starter rate (5%) locked for 6 months at no monthly fee, a dedicated account manager, and access to recurring routes during that period. The Procurement fee is also waived on your first $10,000 of volume, automatically.
