Questions

Do drivers need an app?

No. Each driver gets a link on WhatsApp for their trip: the site, mark loaded and delivered, and a photo as proof. They see no prices.

Can I sell in brass and in tonnes?

Yes. Each material has its own unit and how many tonnes make a brass for it.

Does this include a website or marketing?

No. This package is billing and driver tracking only, with protected delivery links. Reach, growth tools and a public website are excluded.

How does driver tracking work?

The driver opens the trip link on their phone and allows location access. The office sees the latest received position while the trip is on the road; updates depend on the open link, phone permissions and connectivity.
