    The problem with the Truckstop Pay.
    You book a load normal with a broker that uses the service.

    Unknowing about the extra charge.
    All paperwork is processed the same.

    Then the broker says" Truckstop Pay" will pay you. Well OK, I don't care who pays me as long as I get paid.
    Now, to get paid you have to sign up to Truckstop Pay and agree to their terms or prolong the pay process. Using Pay added at least 7 days to the pay period.

    And as mentioned an additional charge is deducted.
    This process may have changed since I used it. Any loads that are listed using PAY I haven't called.

    If you use the Truckstop loadboard .
    The column listed PAY, if that broker has a green check mark. They use the PAY service.

    I see very few brokers that use that service. Zmac is one I know uses that service.

    *GASP* - (falls out of chair).

    The $1.00 charge to remove funds from the Comdata card to deposit in the bank is one.

    $1.75 for using aforementioned card.

    $2 to use TRANSFLO, to scan in documents.

    $22 to the permit company per state order. On top of state fee.

    Then a % charge they charge LS for paying monthly.

    Then LS tacks on $5/state for “WHO KNOWS “.


    It’s never ending with the leeches in this industry.

    All I can do is laugh when agents baulk at a rate - because at least I’m not left with paying the nickels and dimes at the rate they think is fair.

    @Ruthless and @Old Man have taught me to focus on the higher income for quality service so you can ignore the pennies in expenses, that - will always exist, but drive you nuts if you focus on them.

    Thanks for sharing, OP! Something to be looking out for. I'll definitely be looking for that PAY check-mark and avoid it at all costs, pun intended.
