One Platform. Three Countries.
Full Compliance.

Shipmater is built for the USMCA trade corridor from day one β€” separate regulatory compliance, GPS tracking, background checks, and payouts for US, Canadian, and Mexican carriers and shippers.

Country-Specific Compliance

Each country has its own authority, licence, and verification requirements β€” all handled automatically.

How Cross-Border Onboarding Works

Everything adapts automatically based on where the carrier operates.

01

Carrier registers with operating country

When a carrier selects their operating country, the platform shows the correct licence class options (CDL / Class 1 / Licencia Federal), authority number fields (DOT+MC / NSC / Permiso SCT), and country-appropriate ID verification.

02

Identity verified

All three countries are covered by government ID verification β€” passport, driver's licence, national ID card β€” with selfie match and liveness detection across 100+ countries.

03

Background check routes by country

Checks are automatically routed using the carrier's operating country. US carriers get full FMCSA SAFER + criminal. Canadian carriers get provincial criminal records. Mexican carriers get adverse media and document verification.

04

GPS tracking works across all three

Phone GPS via the carrier's mobile browser works in the US, Canada, and Mexico without configuration. For fleet operators, hardware trackers with cellular LTE connectivity cover all USMCA countries seamlessly.

05

Payouts in local currency

USD, CAD, and MXN payouts to local bank accounts. Shippers can pay in their preferred currency; the platform handles FX where applicable.

06

Documents use correct terminology

BOL and POD documents auto-populate carrier authority fields with the appropriate format β€” MC# for US, NSC# for Canada, Permiso SCT for Mexico. Carrier credentials shown match the operating country.

Documents for Every Country

All PDF documents are tenant-branded and auto-populate the correct authority numbers based on the carrier's operating country.
