Freight Moves Fast. Payments Should Too.

Businesses in transportation and logistics have a sprawling web of vendors to enroll and pay. They need to reduce payment delays, eliminate manual vendor management, and improve cash flow visibility to thousands of carriers, freight providers, fuel suppliers, warehouse partners, and service partners every month.

This creates significant complexity and risk, with Gartner estimating that 5-15% of all freight invoices contain errors and that manual processes lead to mistakes, payment delays, and vendor frustration. For industries built on timing, AP falling behind the times directly translates to lost revenue and business opportunities.

70% of transportation companies issue at least 1,000 payments per month

FAQs

How does Paymode work?

Paymode allows payers and their vendors to exchange secure, fast digital payments. Once a payer joins the Paymode network, Paymode works on behalf of the payer to enroll their vendors in the network. Once payers and vendors have been authenticated using a thorough process, payments can be exchanged securely through the network.

Paymode can integrate with any ERP and general ledger system. Paymode also works closely with banks and financial technology companies to offer the network’s many benefits to their end customers as well.

What payment methods are available through Paymode?

Payers can pay vendors using ACH, virtual card, and check. Paymode is also unique in that it offers a Premium ACH payment type, which allows vendors to stop the detective work around payments and apply cash faster. Payers also earn cash back rebates on Premium ACH payments. Paymode virtual card payments can be made via Visa, MasterCard, or American Express, depending on what card provider payers use. Payers can also opt to outsource their check payments to Paymode, using either the managed check option through their bank which allows them to receive a positive pay file for every check or the directed check option which is processed through Paymode’s bank and receive rich remittance files.

How does Paymode prevent payments fraud?

The Paymode network has zero fraud losses annually because of layered, comprehensive security measures. This includes validating vendors using over 300 data points, step up authentication including passkeys and biometrics during key account actions, and 24/7 monitoring of the network for suspicious behavior and fraudulent login attempts.
