FAQ

Common questions

Can carriers use the portal on mobile devices?

Yes. We design mobile-friendly flows for confirmations, updates and document capture where field access matters.

Do you integrate carrier portal activity back into our TMS?

Yes. Portal events typically sync to TMS or middleware so ops teams do not maintain a separate partner spreadsheet.
