Let the data do the talking
EDIFTP is the modern way of transferring electronic data between you and SBB Cargo. EDIFTP comes from EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) und FTP (File Transfer Protocol). File transfer takes place over the Internet. You are given a secure account on our FTP server.

The data is usually taken directly from your in-house system, which minimises manual work and the need to repeatedly enter the same data. This makes EDIFTP the ideal interface for regular users of rail transport services.

Take a look at an example of an EDIFTP message with the possible data transfer procedure.

We have compiled a customer manual to help you with programming EDIFTP messages. This and other information can be ordered.
