Verified Pickup: Shipper is the gate-side verification tool built for shipper facilities and warehouse teams operating in North American freight. Before releasing a load, your facility staff can instantly confirm that the person standing at the dock and the truck behind them are exactly who the carrier assigned — no phone calls, no paper logs, no guesswork. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open the load in Verified Pickup: Shipper. 2. Scan or enter the driver's license number and the truck's license plate. 3. Verified Pickup checks both against the Verified Carrier database in real time. 4. A clear match or mismatch result appears immediately — your team knows whether to release or hold. WHY FACILITIES USE IT • Prevent cargo theft — catch identity or vehicle mismatches before the trailer leaves the yard. • Reduce fraud exposure — every check is logged with a timestamp and user ID for full auditability. • Speed up gate operations — verification takes seconds, not minutes. • No training required — the interface is designed for gate guards and dock workers, not IT staff. • Works across US, Canada, and Mexico — built for cross-border North American freight operations. WHAT GETS VERIFIED • Driver's license number matched to the driver assigned to the load. • Truck license plate matched to the vehicle assigned to the load. • Both records cross-referenced live against the Verified Carrier database. BUILT FOR OPERATIONS TEAMS Verified Pickup: Shipper is part of the Verified Carrier platform used by carriers, shippers, and brokers across North America. The shipper-side app gives your facility team a focused, distraction-free tool for one job: making sure the right person with the right truck picks up the right freight. Compatible with iPhone and iPad. Requires an active Verified Carrier account.
