What is a Time Slot?

Supplier production capacity, defined in hours.

A Time Slot reserves a defined number of hours on a supplier's manufacturing capacity for an agreed period. The reservation becomes firm after the supplier confirms availability and the agreed payment is made, and may remain valid for up to 12 months unless otherwise agreed.

MetaMint does not provide or arrange finished goods, raw materials, product design, specifications, manufacturing, packaging, logistics, shipping, customs, import or export. Those requirements must be arranged independently outside MetaMint.

Anatomy of a slot

A defined reservation with a connected record.

Every Time Slot receives a unique ID connecting the reserved production hours to the supplier confirmation, agreement, invoice, payment and current reservation status.

  • Supplier capacity measured in defined production hours
  • Valid for up to 12 months unless otherwise agreed
  • Capacity only — goods and related services are excluded

Who it's for

Three perspectives. One shared record.

Plan earlier

Secure a defined number of supplier production hours before the related capacity requirement is due.

Know what is reserved

Connect the supplier, hours, validity, commercial terms and confirmation evidence to one Time Slot ID.

Keep the boundary clear

Reserve capacity without treating the Time Slot as a purchase of goods, manufacturing or logistics services.

Define available hours

Confirm the production hours and reservation periods your operation can make available on agreed terms.

Protect confirmed capacity

Once payment confirms the Time Slot, the agreed capacity is protected from conflicting allocations.

Keep records connected

Use the Time Slot ID to connect supplier confirmation, agreements, invoices and payments.

Structure client reservations

Use a repeatable framework for acquiring and allocating supplier production hours across your network.

Deploy under your brand

Use a bespoke white-label configuration while MetaMint provides the underlying Time Slot framework.

Operate across markets

Support consistent reservation records across Asia, South Africa and Europe without blurring commercial roles.

Plan your next capacity requirement with clarity

Tell MetaMint how many production hours you need, the period you are planning for and where you operate. Our team will assess the requirement and explain the next step.
