How Encore works

A transparent path from cargo request to financially closed shipment — with a person accountable at each decision point.

How it works

From request to closed shipment

Six clear stages, each with a person accountable and a record you can trace.

  1. 1

    Request

    The cargo owner submits a transport request.

  2. 2

    Match

    Encore identifies eligible, verified trucks.

  3. 3

    Quote

    Encore prepares and issues an approved quotation.

  4. 4

    Approve

    The parties confirm the booking.

  5. 5

    Track

    Progress is monitored through compatible GPS and verified driver updates.

  6. 6

    Close

    Proof of delivery is reviewed and the financial record is reconciled.

Verification

Documents are uploaded to private storage, checked by the system, and reviewed by an authorised verification officer. AI can extract fields and flag problems, but it never approves a company or truck.

Matching and quotation

Requests are matched on route, truck category, capacity, availability, verification status, valid permits and transporter performance. Staff review exceptional or sensitive matches before anything is confirmed. A truck appearing in a match list is never an automatic booking.

Payments

You receive one official invoice from Encore and pay Encore — you are not asked to split payment between Encore and the transporter. Encore settles the transporter according to the agreed terms. Accepted payment methods are shown on each invoice.

Tracking

Where compatible GPS is available we show last known location and milestones. Otherwise authorised drivers send structured updates, which are clearly labelled as driver-reported. Location data is visible only to authorised users on active shipments.

Information on this page is a summary; final terms are agreed in writing.
