Book it, confirm it, bill it. One record, trade to invoice.

Enter the deal once, with both sides on the ticket. APACT emails the confirms, keeps commission ready to invoice and runs your end-of-day reports.

The problem

Today, your team re-keys the same deal at every step

Into the blotter, onto the confirm, onto the invoice, then into the end-of-day totals. Every re-key is another chance for a wrong price, a wrong quantity or a deal that never gets billed.

Step 1 · Book

One ticket, both sides of the deal

Pick the product, the buyer and the seller, then enter price, quantity, delivery and commission.

  • Company, entity and trader for each side
  • Trade value and commission worked out as you type
  • Save a draft while terms aren't final

Step 2 · Confirm

Confirms out to both sides, straight from the ticket

APACT builds the confirm from the ticket and emails it to the buyer and the seller, so the confirm always matches the trade.

  • Emailed to the buyer and the seller from the ticket
  • A timeline on every trade: created, submitted, confirm sent to each side
  • Amend a trade and the revised confirm goes to both sides

Step 3 · Bill

Bill each counterparty its commission

Commission stays with each trade until you bill. On your billing cycle, build each company's invoice from its trades for the period.

  • An invoice for each counterparty company or entity
  • Status from draft through sent, paid, overdue or cancelled
  • Outstanding and overdue totals at the top

FAQ

Common questions

Which commodities does APACT handle?

Energy, commodities and other bespoke OTC markets, from crude and refined products, power and gas to metals, agriculture, carbon and renewable fuels. We set up your products and units for each desk at onboarding. See markets →

How do confirms work?

APACT builds the confirm from the trade as booked and emails it to the buyer and the seller. Each send shows on the trade's timeline, and an amendment sends a revised confirm to both sides.

How is commission calculated?

However your desk charges it: a percentage of trade value, basis points, a flat amount or a rate per unit. APACT works out the dollars on each trade, and on your billing cycle you build each counterparty's invoice from its trades.

How is APACT priced?

Per broker seat, plus a platform fee that covers your ops, admin and owner seats. Counterparties, auditors and view-only users are free, and there are no per-trade fees. See pricing →

What does setup involve?

We set up your desks, products, counterparties and commission rates with you, so confirms, invoices and end-of-day reports work from day one.
