OTR Solutions and LoadConnect Launch Integrated Fraud Protection for Freight Carriers

OTR Solutions and LoadConnect have announced a strategic partnership that introduces integrated credit approvals and fraud prevention measures directly into freight carrier dispatch workflows. The collaboration combines LoadConnect's automated freight dispatch platform with OTR's comprehensive freight broker credit data, creating a real-time security layer within the load boards carriers regularly use. This integration aims to protect carriers from the escalating threat of freight fraud, which has cost the industry millions annually through double brokering, fake loads, and impersonation scams.

John Landrum, VP of Marketing at OTR Solutions, emphasized the significance of this partnership, stating that it represents the next evolution of carrier protection by transforming back-office credit processes into real-time safeguards embedded directly within dispatch workflows. The integration addresses one of the freight industry's most pressing vulnerabilities by providing carriers with immediate access to broker credit verification and fraud prevention data before accepting any loads. This approach gives carriers transparency and trust at the critical moment of load booking decisions.

The partnership leverages OTR Solutions' position as the exclusive provider of True Non-Recourse Factoring and its recently launched Truly Instant Funding service. OTR has built its reputation on protecting carriers from financial losses due to broker nonpayment through its extensive network of approved brokers and rigorous credit verification processes. By integrating this financial intelligence with LoadConnect's platform, carriers gain comprehensive protection that combines real-time broker verification, pre-approved factoring visibility, and automated load management in a single seamless experience.

Through the integrated system, carriers using LoadConnect can now access real-time broker credit data from OTR's extensive network, instantly verify whether loads are pre-approved for factoring with OTR Solutions, and confirm authentic broker contact information directly within LoadConnect's system to prevent impersonation fraud. This functionality not only safeguards carrier payments but also strengthens every transaction from dispatch through delivery, providing carriers with the confidence to operate their businesses without interruption or financial risk.

Ronen Gilkarov, CMO of LoadConnect, described the collaboration as bringing automated dispatch efficiency together with financial verification and security to the carrier community. He noted that this partnership represents just the beginning of a long-term relationship between the companies, with plans already underway for deeper integrations and expanded functionality. The ongoing development aims to continuously evolve alongside carrier needs while setting new benchmarks for safety, visibility, and trust in freight technology. The partnership reflects a shared mission to build a more secure and transparent freight ecosystem by combining automation with trusted financial intelligence.
