What Is Freight Factoring and How Does It Work?
Freight factoring is a simple way for trucking companies to get paid quickly instead of waiting weeks for a broker or shipper to settle an invoice. Rather than carrying the cost of fuel, repairs, and payroll while an invoice sits unpaid, you sell that invoice to a factoring company and receive the money up front. Porter Freight Funding then handles all of the back-office support, including paperwork, collections and debtor management.
For owner-operators and growing fleets, this matters because the gap between delivering a load and getting paid is often where a business gets squeezed. Freight factoring closes that gap, turning a 30-, 60-, or 90-day wait into same-day funding.
With Porter Freight Funding, the process is straightforward:
Deliver your load. Submit your paperwork. Get funded fast.
Porter then handles payment from the broker directly. There’s no long wait, no chasing payments, and no taking on debt. You don’t have to worry about a loan payment, interest rates, or tying up credit lines, just to improve your cash flow.

All-In-One Maintenance with PorterGO
PorterGO brings the day-to-day running of your trucking business into one place. From a single app you can run instant credit checks before accepting a load scan and submit documents, track the status of your funding, browse load boards, and find fuel discounts at more than 2,500 locations nationwide.
Get Paid the Moment You Pick Up a Load
Sometimes waiting even one day for funding isn’t an option. Fuel, repairs, and operating expenses need to be covered before the load is delivered. Porter Wallet 24/7 Advances let you draw against a load the moment you pick it up, any day of the week, including nights, weekends, and holidays. Advances are managed entirely through the PorterGO app, so you can access cash whenever you need it without a phone call or a wait.
Fuel Discounts
Save on diesel costs with nationwide fuel discounts and expense management tools.
Accepted everywhere with discounts at over 2,500 locations.
Fuel is one of the largest and least predictable costs a trucking company faces. Porter’s fuel card program is built to make that cost easier to manage – giving you access to discounted diesel at locations nationwide, along with simplified expense tracking that makes tax reporting easier.
