%ICON{"warning"}% *Note:* Partner offers will only be visible if the partnership is mutual or if the offer is available from the Freecargo Exchange. Please note that some partners never upload their offers to the Freecargo Exchange (closed user groups, private exchanges). So it is best to always ask partners to add you as their partner too (mutual partnership).

%ICON{"warning"}% *Note:* For more information about Partners, Closed User Groups and Private Exchanges see: AboutFreecargo.
