## What is Payload Mobile?

Payload helps producers and operators address the inefficiencies in their upstream services, from first bid to final invoice. It saves time in the field and gives head office better visibility and control. Simply and easily.

For service providers Payload helps dispatchers and drivers communicate in real time on orders in progress. No texts or emails required.

Our mobile app tracks changes and performance in real time — and helps reduce disputes and delays in getting paid. With the Payload app, drivers can receive up-to-date load information, documents and detailed site information. Drivers can capture events along the way including pickups, deliveries and issues. Capturing images and audio to complete the picture of what is happening in the field. With this data, Payload can produce rich and detailed ticketing information that can be transmitted to clients.

The Payload app uses the device’s GPS data to transmit geographical information to dispatchers. To operate the app a valid username and password issued by Payload is required.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2024-05-26, version 2.18.0*

Off to a new job in 2 weeks time.   Too bad it had to go this way    No stars.  Negative 5 stars

### 1/5 — Needs redesigned

*2023-11-24, version 2.15.4*

App not set up for companies hauling NGL/ Butane.   Causing more grief and headaches

### 1/5 — Ruins battery

*2020-04-30, version 2.6.0*

Tracks everything, uses MY Data, Kills my phone. The battery in my phone use to last 12 hrs of moderate use. Thanks to this app it barely makes 4.

### 1/5 — need a negative star to rate this properly

*2019-12-04, version 2.3.6*

have seen one person after another hand in their notice over having to use this app.
Wouldnt be an issue for me but it just feels wrong to use my personal device for an employer that isnt paying my bill

### 1/5 — Unhappy user

*2019-10-29, version 2.3.6*

I see absolutely no advantage to using this app, still need to do paper BOL for the DOT and for TDG all this does is create more work, also using my personal phone and my data plan for u to make money off of is not right no matter how little data it uses

### 3/5 — Up date

*2019-10-24, version 2.3.6*

When is the update going to be ready.

### 3/5 — Removed “Suggested Events”

*2019-10-07, version 2.3.6*

The removal of “suggested events” using the geofence is disappointing. It made it easier to start an issue at the same time as a pickup or drop off being started, while not having to have anything “done” in payload.

### 1/5 — Payload crap
