Frequently Asked Questions
What is driver settlement software?
Driver settlement software calculates and pays what trucking drivers earn for completed loads. It handles per-mile, percentage-of-revenue, flat-rate, and hybrid pay structures, plus accessorials, deductions (advances, escrow, fuel), and reimbursements. ZuzHQ generates settlements automatically from the same load and rate confirmation data already in the dispatch board.
Can I pay drivers with multiple different pay structures?
Yes. ZuzHQ supports per-mile, percentage of line haul, flat per-load, and any combination — including different structures for company drivers vs owner-operators vs lease purchase drivers. Each driver's settlement is calculated according to their specific pay agreement.
How does ZuzHQ handle accessorials and deductions?
Accessorials (detention, lumper, layover) are added to the load and flow into the driver's settlement automatically. Deductions (fuel, advances, escrow, equipment damage, IFTA) are tracked per driver and applied to each settlement run. Drivers see a full breakdown so disputes drop sharply.
Can drivers see their own settlements?
Yes. Drivers can view past and current settlements in the mobile app, see line-by-line breakdowns of pay and deductions, and download statements. This transparency is the single biggest factor in reducing settlement disputes.
What is the best software for driver settlements, and how does it help manage driver pay?
The best driver settlement software calculates pay automatically from the load record and each driver's pay rules — per-mile, percentage, flat, or hybrid — then applies accessorials and deductions without spreadsheets. ZuzHQ does exactly this: settlements generate from completed loads, detention and lumper accessorials flow in automatically, fuel and advance deductions are tracked per driver, and drivers see a line-by-line breakdown in the mobile app. Because the pay ties directly to the same load data used for dispatch and invoicing, there is no re-keying and disputes drop sharply.
