    Nope.
    You have to scan at the truck stop or a terminal.

    Not sure why they aren't using the App yet.
    But it's Swift.

    Anyway not a big deal. should have been there when you had to drop the Trips in Boxes...
    Those Scanners are everywhere.

    Guessing they're still doing the 13 Trip thing. or was it 23?
    After you get your first trips in on time with no issues.
    You will get paid automatically even if you don't get the Trip in on time for a pay period.

    Don't remember, plus my last year with Swift I did Walmart Dedicated.
    We didn't have regular BOLs.

    It's called Accelerated Pay.

    After your first 20 trips scanned in on time you get on Accelerated Pay, which means that you get paid for every trip you complete before Wednesday at midnight (the cutoff for that pay period) on the next pay check.
    You still need to scan in the trips in a timely manner, meaning within 5 or 6 days, or you will be kicked off Accelerated Pay until you get caught up with the missing BOL's.

    I scan in trips once or twice a week, and I make it a point to have all past trips scanned in by Wednesday at midnight.
    (I was late a couple times (when I was off Accelerated Pay) and couldn't scan until around 0400 Thursday morning, Phoenix time. Those were also included in that pay period. So I think they really have to be scanned in by the time they get in Thursday morning when they finish processing everything.)
     
    OceanDan and DocWatson Thank this.
