Managing your offers

Category: GeneralUpdated October 21, 2026

Your offers on rynda.io live in the "My listings" section. Responses arrive as chat; an offer leaves the marketplace when you archive it or when its time runs out.

Where to manage them

The "My listings" section — the first screen of the Deals space in the cabinet: a list of your cargoes and vessels, each one's status and its response count.

How responses arrive

An interested party opens your offer and clicks "Contact" — a conversation opens for you in Messages. Reply right there: the whole history for that offer stays in one place.

After you agree

  1. Agree the terms in chat.
  2. The offer's author — the person who was contacted — clicks "Agreed" first. Until then the other side has no button, only the note "Waiting for the counterparty to confirm".
  3. Once the author has confirmed, the button appears for the other side, who confirms too.
  4. Each party's contacts open.
  5. The offer stays active — the platform only reminds you that you may hide it.

Hiding and restoring an offer

Agreeing in chat does not close an offer. It leaves the marketplace on its own only when its time runs out:

  • a cargo — the day after its loading date, and no later than 30 days after posting;
  • a vessel and a "Vessel wanted" request — 30 days after posting;
  • a broker cargo — 2 days after its loading date, or 2 days after the end of its laycan window if one is set; broker tonnage — 30 days after its readiness date.

When the deal is done or the offer is no longer relevant, hide it yourself:

  1. A broker listing — the "To archive" button in its row in "My listings". A direct offer — the "Hide offer" button in the reminder that appears in the conversation after you both agree.
  2. The offer leaves the marketplace — no new responses come in.
  3. Changed your mind — bring a broker listing back with "Republish". For an archived direct offer, open it from "My listings" and pick "Republish" in the "⋮" menu: a form opens with a copy of the offer, and the copy goes through moderation again once published.

Hiding is reversible: archiving is not deletion, and the conversation is kept. Don't confuse it with "Cancel offer" in the same menu: a cancelled offer cannot be restored.

What a broker can do with their cargo and tonnage

A broker listing — cargo or open tonnage — has three actions in its "My listings" row and on the listing page:

Action When available What happens
"Change loading date" (for tonnage — "Change readiness date") listing is active the listing stays in the marketplace; only the date changes
"To archive" listing is active or under review the listing leaves the marketplace and "Active"; the conversation is kept
"Republish" listing is archived the listing returns to the marketplace; if the loading or open date has passed, you will be asked for a new one

Only the listing's owner sees these actions. On a phone the first button reads "Change date" — the dialog title says which date.

If the email the listing was built from gives no loading or readiness date, the public listing shows no date. Set it with "Change loading date" and it appears on the listing.

If the email gives loading as a date window ("laycan 10–15 Nov") or the weight as a range ("3000/7000 mt"), the listing shows them the same way: "Laycan 10–15 Nov", "3,000–7,000 t". You can also enter the laycan end and the maximum weight when you post a cargo by hand. If a new loading date falls after the end of the window, the window end is removed and the listing shows a single date.

What the "Rejected" status on a broker listing means

A moderator reviews every broker listing before it reaches the marketplace. An approved listing gets the "Active" status. A rejected one does not appear in the marketplace: in "My listings" it shows the "Rejected" status, and the line under its row reads "Rejected by a moderator." followed by the reason. Rejected listings sit under the "Rejected" filter: they do not mix with your other listings, and in the full list they come last.

Reason under the listing What it means What to do
"This offer is already on the platform." you have already sent this offer, and its listing is in "My listings" keep working with the existing listing — a second one is not needed
"You have already sent this offer: we updated its date." the same offer arrived with a later loading or readiness date; the new date was moved into the existing listing nothing: the existing listing already carries the new date
"Details are missing: cargo or vessel, ports, dates." the text is not enough to build a listing post the offer again with the cargo or vessel, the ports and the dates
"The offer is not about sea freight or vessel chartering." the subject does not fit the marketplace the marketplace takes cargo for sea carriage and vessels for charter

Every moderator decision arrives in Notifications: whether the offer was approved or rejected, and why. When the date is moved into the existing listing, the notification states the new date. An email is sent when the offer is approved, and when a rejected offer lacks details or does not fit the marketplace. If several of your offers are approved within an hour, the email covers the first one; the other decisions are in Notifications. To stop these emails, open Notifications in your account, find the "Which emails to receive" block and turn off "Moderator decisions", or follow the "Stop these emails" link at the bottom of an email. The same block turns off emails about replies, new messages, deal updates and offers moved to the archive. Notifications in your account keep arriving. If no reason is given, ask support.
