Verify by uploading your documents

You can verify your carrier identity by uploading the following documents:

• Certificate of Authority and/or W-9
• Proof of Insurance (optional)

You can begin by either tapping the Verify my carrier identity button on the Book tab or by navigating to the Profile tab. From the Profile tab, select the Your info menu and tap your Carrier MC / DOT.

You will be prompted with two options: Connect a broker account or Upload authority documents. Select Upload authority documents to get started.

You can upload your documents by taking a photo or by selecting the document from your device. Please make sure that your document adheres to our document guidelines:

• Ensure documents are readable
  • They should be scanned in a well-lit space and on a flat surface
• Include all four corners
  • Unfold any curved edges
• Avoid background objects
  • No fingers please

After uploading your documents, scroll to the bottom and tap the Confirm button.

Once your documents have been confirmed, your carrier identity status will update to Pending. If you wish to verify faster, you can connect a broker account.
