- 3See every payment as it happens
Haulage firms and owner-drivers carry everything from cement and crops to containers and fuel. Many customers pay per load, some pay half up front and half on delivery, and big clients often pay weeks later. Meanwhile the owner pays for fuel, tolls, repairs and drivers every day, often by handing cash to a driver on the road. A payments app that sends a link when a load is booked and another when it is delivered, and lets owners send drivers money for fuel and expenses from a phone, can win these firms, and every business that pays them sees your app.

Get paid per load
A link for the advance when a load is booked and another when the delivery note is signed means money arrives the same day, not weeks later.

Send drivers money on the road
Sending fuel and expense money to a driver's phone, with a note for each payment, replaces cash in envelopes and shows what each trip really cost.
Grow through the businesses you carry for
Truck owners carry for farmers, traders, factories and wholesalers. When those businesses pay through your app, they see how it could work for their own customers.
