The American Trucking Association reports that in 2015 there were 3.5 million employed truck drivers in the US. Typically, risks and costs associated with paying these drivers include check cashing, bill payment, money orders, fraud, IRS compliance and remittance fees. Drivers do not have immediate access to their funds, and they are not as secure carrying cash or checks. The MIFunds Disbursement platform holds the solution for those 3.5 million drivers and their companies.
How does it work?
The driver is linked to a registration page branded to your
company, and upon entering the required information; the card is created and
shipped to the new cardholder for their respective disbursements. When the account has been created, the
platform provides instant Driver profile access to authorized company
administrators responsible for disbursing funds.
From here, funds can be disbursed on an individual basis, or as a part of a group payout. Authorized administrators are also able to seamlessly view disbursement statuses and reverse or edit payouts.
