New FreightCheck app for fast factoring
Bibby Financial Services’ new FreightCheck app is designed to allow trucking business owners among their factoring clients to upload their load documents for invoicing and submit them for funding directly from their phone. The app also supports instant messaging and real-time feedback on applications, so that any issues can quickly be resolved and the funding dispatched to the client. Further, carriers can select which loads they would like to issue on the same invoice, as well as just how they want to receive money – by ACH, fuel card or bank wire.
FreightCheck is currently available for iPhone and iPad via the Apple App Store.We wanted to make getting funded as easy as taking a picture on your phone and I believe we have achieved that through the FreightCheck app,” said Mary Ann Hudson, EVP Managing Director of Bibby Transportation Finance (subsidiary of Bibby Financial Services).
