Requirements
What your application may need
Our review may request operating authority, vehicle, driver and insurance evidence applicable to your market.
Vehicles and equipment
Open or enclosed trailers, single-vehicle units and capacity.
Drivers
Driver qualifications and the checks you carry out.
Insurance
Cargo and liability cover, with validity dates.
Custody process
How you record pickup, transit and delivery.

Carrier vs broker
Brokerage and carrier responsibilities are different.
We will review your declared role and relevant authorization.
Carrier
- Operates the vehicles and employs or contracts drivers
- Holds operating authority and cargo insurance
- Records custody from pickup to delivery
Broker
- Arranges transport with qualified carriers
- Shows brokerage authorization for each market
- Doesn't become a carrier by applying
Capacity
Approved capacity, not assumed capacity
Dispatch eligibility depends on verified equipment, drivers and markets — and can change.
Example capacity profileDemo data

|---|---|---|
| Open trailers | 4 | Verified |
| Enclosed trailers | 1 | Pending |
| Drivers | 6 | Verified |
| Markets | United Kingdom | Verified |
| Cargo insurance | Until 30 Jun 2027 | Expiry tracked |
Pending means not dispatched
Equipment or drivers still pending can't be assigned jobs. Expired insurance pauses dispatch eligibility.

FAQ
Transport Partner Program questions
Proposed answers, pending legal and market review.
A legally authorized organization may start an application for the transport role and markets that apply to it. Eligibility depends on current market requirements, service scope and independent review.
No. Applying starts a review. You're only dispatch-eligible once authority, capacity and an agreement are all in place.
A carrier operates the vehicles and drivers that move cars. A broker arranges transport with carriers. Each role needs its own authorization.
Supported markets are added one at a time. Each market has its own requirements, and you're reviewed separately for each.
Only where you hold the operating authority and insurance your market requires. Drivers working for a carrier are reviewed as part of that carrier.
Typically operating authority, insurance certificates, vehicle and trailer details, and driver qualifications — depending on your role and market.
No. Jobs are only assigned once you're dispatch-eligible, and being eligible doesn't guarantee any volume of work.
Yes, where your equipment, insurance and driver training are approved for it.
No. Rates, fees and payout timing are set out in your agreement. There are no guaranteed earnings.
No. Verification checks your evidence. You remain responsible for holding valid cargo and liability insurance.
Only where your agreement allows it and the subcontractor is also approved. Brokering a job doesn't make you its carrier.
