Every load confirmed, none lost in a chat.

Many loads still arrive in WhatsApp groups and spreadsheets, where a missed reply sends the order to another transporter. Zimpra gives every booking an owner and a status, so each one gets an answer in time.

Before Zimpra
A WhatsApp group where a manufacturer asks transporters to confirm vehicles, then moves the orders to other transporters

Loads offered in a group chat.

No reply in time, and the order moves on: “As we don’t get confirmation from you, we diverted orders to other transporters.”

A real dispatch group. Group and company names hidden.

With Zimpra

One list. An owner for every booking.

Each request is captured, assigned to a desk and tracked until the vehicle is placed.

Questions, answered.

Who is this for?

Transporters who receive bookings from customers and source their own or market vehicles to fulfil them.

Where do bookings come from?

From customer emails, and from bookings your team enters directly.

How is it different from Dispatch Automation?

Dispatch Automation is for manufacturers and shippers planning outbound trips. Booking and Vehicle Sourcing is for the transporter receiving that demand and finding the trucks.

Will invoicing connect to booking and tracking?

Yes. That link is being built now, so one trip will run from booking and tracking to a paid invoice in Zimpra TMS. Until then, trips are added to invoicing directly.
