Trucking and logistics merchant account requirements

Underwriting is not looking for a reason to say no. It is looking for enough evidence to say yes, and most delays are a missing document rather than a decision.

How the money reaches you

Underwriting is reading a description of this path. The clearer it is, the less there is to ask about.

What gets built for trucking, fleet & logistics

Commercial Card Optimization

Capture eligible Level 2 and Level 3 transaction information for commercial purchasing cards when supported. On freight invoices this is routinely worth more than anything a processor concedes on markup, and it needs a gateway that sends the fields rather than a negotiation.

Invoice-to-Payment

Turn invoices into payment links supporting appropriate card and ACH options, so the customer pays from the invoice rather than from a phone call to accounting.

Factoring Reconciliation

When receivables are factored, four numbers have to line up or the month does not close.

Fuel Payments

Support appropriate fleet and fuel-card environments where available, with their own interchange treatment worth checking separately.

Contractor & Driver Payouts

Integrate provider-supported payout rails for the money going the other way.

Proof-of-Delivery Evidence

Attach the bill of lading, proof of delivery, invoice and payment to the same transaction record, so a damage or delay claim months later has one place to look.

Show Us How a Load Turns Into Cash.

From the fuel purchase to the settled invoice, we will map where the money sits and how long it sits there.

The exact document list depends on the business rather than the industry, so we resolve it against what you tell us instead of sending everyone the same checklist. Pyper can give you yours in about a minute.

Applying commits you to nothing and is not an approval. The acquiring bank decides placement, pricing and terms — we build the file and tell you honestly what it is likely to meet.
