About 5 minutes of your time: your DOT number pulls company details straight from FMCSA, the wizard walks equipment, lanes and payment (direct or factoring with full NOA support), documents verify the same day, and the VERIFIED badge opens the live board.
Create your login in the Carrier Portal. Type your DOT number and your legal name, entity type and authority details auto-fill from FMCSA — no re-typing federal records.
Company → equipment & preferred lanes → dispatch preferences → payment (verified bank for direct pay, or your factoring company with the NOA) → e-sign the dispatch agreement and W-9 in-app (E-SIGN Act).
COI straight from your insurance agent, operating authority letter, and anything else on your checklist. Phone photos work — the built-in Scan-to-PDF turns pages into one clean file.
LoadBoot checks your authority status against FMCSA, the insured name against your legal entity, and every expiry date. Each document runs Uploaded → In review → Approved on a visible tracker.
The badge lands on your profile, compliance gates open, and the board shows loads with the full rate card in writing. Book in one tap; the trip runs itself.
“Authorized for Property” and for-hire. New authority is welcome — no minimum age on your MC. See authority & DOT setup.
From your agent: $1M auto liability and $100K cargo is the standard brokers expect. The insured name must match your authority exactly — the #1 rejection reason industry-wide.
Have yours ready — or skip the paperwork and e-sign one in-app; the PDF generates instantly.
Only if you factor: the Notice of Assignment from your factoring company. LoadBoot verifies it and routes broker payments to your factor automatically.
Direct pay: a voided check or bank letter so your remit-to is verified before the first settlement.
Fleet? CDL and medical card per driver — expiry tracking watches them so a lapse never surfaces at a roadside inspection.
Everything lives in the document vault with expiry reminders — you upload once and get warned before anything lapses.
Certificates that lapsed, or an insured name that does not match the authority. Ask your agent for a current COI in your exact legal name before you upload.
LoadBoot reads the federal record; if your entity changed, update FMCSA first so the records agree.
If you told us you factor, brokers pay your factor — but only once the NOA letter is on file and verified. Upload it with the packet.
Use the built-in Scan-to-PDF — it crops, straightens and bundles pages so reviewers can actually read them.
Most carriers are verified the same day once documents are in. The tracker on each document shows exactly where it is.
Yes. New-authority carriers are a core part of who LoadBoot serves; there is no minimum authority age. Start with the authority setup guide if you are still filing.
The account is free. LoadBoot earns a flat 5% only on loads it books for you — see pricing.
They get magic-link invites from your fleet roster — one tap on their phone and their trips, navigation and document capture are ready.
The vault warns you before expiry. If a required document lapses, booking gates pause until the fresh one is approved — problems surface before a load, never during one.
Just the NOA letter. Remit-to routing, per-broker control and the funding packet are built in — see factoring & NOA.
