Freight brokers consistently grapple with manual payment processes, fraud risk, and cash flow constraints. To address these challenges, Tai Software has integrated the HaulPay Freight Payment Wallet directly into its Transportation Management System (TMS). This partnership enables brokers to verify payees, automate carrier payments, and access optional working capital in a single, seamless workflow, moving from "shipment delivered" to "fully paid" with just one click.
Tai Software integrates HaulPay's payment wallet directly into its TMS platform.
The feature enables one-click, automated carrier payments with built-in payee verification.
It offers optional, non-recourse financing to improve broker cash flow.
The integration aims to reduce fraud, manual work, and back-office bottlenecks.
Brokers can automate carrier remittances and access reconciliation-ready exports.
The solution is available to Tai TMS customers with no integration fees.
The core benefit of this integration is the consolidation of critical financial operations within the broker's primary workflow. Instead of juggling multiple platforms, brokers can now handle payments directly in Tai TMS. The HaulPay wallet includes essential guardrails, such as built-in payee verification, which helps prevent fraud and misdirected funds—a significant risk in the industry. Daniel Ely, Chief Product Officer at Tai Software, emphasized the user experience, stating, “Integrating HaulPay’s payment wallet gives our customers a faster, safer way to pay carriers and reconcile transactions within Tai. The result is less manual work and more confidence in every payment.”
Beyond automation, the partnership provides a strategic financial advantage. HaulPay offers optional embedded financing based on a non-recourse model, meaning the funding is tied to the shipper's credit rather than the broker's own balance sheet. This allows brokers to scale their operations and pay carriers quickly without straining their capital. Steve Kochan, President at HaulPay, explained, “By bringing our verification and financing guardrails into Tai, brokers can automate payouts, avoid misdirected funds, and unlock cash flow so they can grow without stressing their own balance sheet.”
The integration is designed to tackle persistent operational inefficiencies. By automating carrier payments and remittances, the solution significantly reduces the high-touch administrative tasks that often require substantial back-office headcount. Features like automated status tracking and reconciliation-ready exports further streamline accounting processes. This allows brokerage teams to reallocate time from manual payment follow-up to more strategic, revenue-generating activities, ultimately improving profitability and carrier relationships through faster payment cycles.
The collaboration between Tai Software and HaulPay represents a significant step toward a more integrated and intelligent logistics ecosystem. By embedding financial services directly into the operational workflow, they are empowering freight brokers to operate with greater speed, security, and financial agility.
