Issuing and processing payment happens upon completion of the unload, where significant dwell time can occur.<\/p>\n<p>With Direct Bill, Capstone\u2019s contracted carriers can bypass payment altogether at select Capstone-supported sites. This provides unique value for shippers that leverage Capstone\u2019s integrated freight management and warehouse services.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Benefits for carriers include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Reduction in dwell time and detention<\/li>\n<li>Eliminates risk of not getting reimbursed<\/li>\n<li>Less hassle dealing with receipts<\/li>\n<li>Safe, contactless payment during the COVID-19 pandemic<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Benefits for shippers include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Faster unloading leads to shipper of choice status and carrier retention<\/li>\n<li>Streamlined payments that reduce wasted time and resources<\/li>\n<li>Less risk of fraudulent receipts or billing disputes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Capstone partners that have implemented Direct Bill have seen notable results.
