TruckerCloud Launches Instant Carrier Onboarding

ATLANTA, Nov. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- TruckerCloud, a real-time freight visibility software platform, announced it has launched Instant Carrier Onboarding.

With most freight visibility platforms, it can take up to 24-48 hours or more to onboard each carrier. With TruckerCloud's new, patent-pending technology, carriers can be onboarded instantly. It's so fast that shippers, brokers and 3PLs can use TruckerCloud's freight visibility for the spot market, so 100% of their loads can be tracked.

"Setting up a new carrier to track their trucks has traditionally been a challenge," said Spencer Mitchell, CEO of TruckerCloud. "Transportation folks have had to choose between two freight visibility options that weren't ideal. They could quickly set up mobile app tracking, which is imperfect (the driver's phone could be personal property and may not physically be with the truckload) and can be costly (if the app is pinging a cell tower every few minutes). Or they could use an ELD-based system, which is more accurate, but carrier onboarding is typically time-consuming and a hassle."

Spencer continued, "Now, shippers, brokers and 3PLs can get the best of all worlds. TruckerCloud's new functionality allows carriers to be onboarded instantly. It's cost-effective, and uses accurate, ELD-based data. We've heard from our customers that they're loving using TruckerCloud to view all their loads, even when they use spot market carriers."

For carriers new to the TruckerCloud platform, an email will be sent to them asking them to simply choose their ELD from a menu and add their credentials. The connection is instantly verified; truck location data is visible to their customers within minutes. For carriers already in the TruckerCloud ecosystem, they can quickly approve or decline new relationship requests within their account using their existing ELD credentials.
