Relay Payments has been named a finalist for the Women in Trucking Technology Innovation Award | So Good News

“We are proud to be a member of the Women in Trucking Organization — we share the organization’s vision of empowering women in the industry.” – Spencer Barkoff, founder of Relay Payments

ATLANTA (PRWEB)
09 November 2022

Relay Payments, a fintech company modernizing payments for the supply chain, logistics and trucking industries, is one of three finalists for the inaugural Women in Trucking Technology Innovation Award. Women in Trucking (WIT) is a non-profit organization that empowers women in the trucking industry by promoting their success and reducing barriers that may stand in their way. The WIT Technology Innovation Award is dedicated to honoring technical advances that advance the trucking industry, particularly the inclusion of women.

“At Relay, we know that technology can break down the barriers that prevent women from working in the trucking industry, while also helping them feel safer. “We’ve heard from countless female drivers who appreciate our contactless technology because it reduces frustrating interactions and eliminates friction, whether they’re paying or trying to find a safe parking spot at 3 a.m.,” said Relay Founder Spencer Barkoff. “We are proud to be a member of the Women in Trucking Organization — we share the organization’s vision of empowering women in the industry.”

Relay has grown rapidly and become a force in the global supply chain and shipping industries. The Atlanta-based company launched in 2019 to help digitize payments, aiming to make the driver’s life easier. Relay technology solves the problem of difficult unloading times in warehouses, where drivers can wait for hours for approval to pay cash or fleet checks. Reliance on cash and paper checks leads to inefficiency and fraud, so Relay has introduced a fully digital, secure and contactless payment solution to eliminate these issues. The Relay mobile app was quickly adopted and loved by truckers because it increases service hours and revenue potential per load.

Today, more than 300,000 truckers use the Relay mobile app to make on-the-go payments, and nearly every warehouse in the United States participates in their payment network.

This recognition from the Trucking Women Association is the latest in a series of awards that Estafeta has received for its innovation and culture. Other recent honors include the FreightTech 100, Fast’s Most Innovative Companies and Inc Magazine’s Best Places to Work.
