OTR Solutions has formed a strategic partnership with LoadConnect to integrate freight broker credit data and fraud-prevention insights directly into motor carriers’ dispatch workflows.
The collaboration merges LoadConnect’s automated load-management platform with OTR’s credit intelligence to give trucking companies more visibility and protection against broker fraud at the point of booking.
“By combining OTR’s credit intelligence with LoadConnect’s platform, we’re turning what was once a back-office process into a real-time safeguard,” said John Landrum, vice president of marketing at OTR Solutions.
Addressing a Growing Freight Fraud Threat
Freight fraud continues to rise, costing carriers millions annually through double brokering, fake loads, and impersonation schemes. The integration places OTR’s credit-verification data inside LoadConnect’s web-based load board extension, helping carriers vet brokers before moving a load.
OTR Solutions offers True Non-Recourse Factoring and recently introduced Truly Instant Funding. Its network of approved brokers and credit-screening process are designed to prevent nonpayment and reduce carrier exposure to chargebacks, disputes, and unreliable broker relationships.
By combining OTR’s factoring oversight with LoadConnect’s tools, carriers gain real-time broker checks, factoring approval visibility, and automated load management in one workflow.
Through the integration, LoadConnect users can:
Access real-time broker credit data from OTR’s network
See whether a load is pre-approved for OTR factoring
Verify broker contact information to avoid impersonation
Streamline dispatch through automated, secure load workflows supported by financial data
“This collaboration brings the best of both worlds — automated dispatch efficiency paired with financial verification and security,” said Ronen Gilkarov, chief marketing officer at LoadConnect. He added that deeper integrations are planned.
Building Toward Broader Freight-Tech Integration
Both companies describe the partnership as part of a longer-term effort to build safer, more transparent freight operations.
Future development is expected to expand functionality with additional tools that strengthen carrier financial security and reduce risk across the booking and delivery cycle.
