FAQs

A few things you might be asking yourself

Why should I get an onboarding program?
All of your carriers must fill out paperwork and be onboarded as contractors for your business before they can start transporting freight. An onboarding program simplifies this process. DAT lets carriers fill out profiles online and fill out forms from any device.

How does OnBoard help brokers?
Quality carriers are the cornerstone of your business. With OnBoard, you gain access to more than 50,000 detailed carrier profiles so you can find the right partners for your business. All contracts can be signed electronically and you can onboard carriers from anywhere, via any electronic device.

How does OnBoard work?
Once you direct carriers to your DAT-hosted website (which features your logo and other branding), carriers will have the opportunity to complete a profile and upload important documents from any device. We’ll then validate the carrier’s W9 information so they can sign a copy of your contract.

Can OnBoard save me time?
Absolutely! By moving everything online, OnBoard saves you all the time you used to spend on data collection and entry.

Does OnBoard integrate with my TMS?
Yes. Qualified carrier information from OnBoard is uploaded right into your TMS so you can view relevant information with ease.
