Relay Payments provides a digital payment platform tailored to the freight and logistics industry. It enables secure, end-to-end payments that connect freight brokers, fleets, drivers, and merchants, covering costs like fuel, lumper services, and parking. The app lets drivers locate nearby merchants along their route and pay for diesel, lumpers, parking, and other over-the-road expenses, while centralized transactions and receipts help businesses automate back-office tasks and manage cash flow. Revenue comes from transaction fees on its services. The platform differentiates itself by focusing specifically on trucking needs, offering instant lumper payments, on-route merchant discovery and payments, and centralized expense tracking to improve carrier loyalty and fleet efficiency. The goal is to keep freight moving by delivering a secure, efficient payment network that saves time, generates additional revenue, and simplifies fleet administration.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • June 2026 Platform Science access puts Relay in more fleet workflows immediately.
  • Relay said 500,000+ drivers and carriers use its network, widening transaction volume.
  • 2025-2026 partnerships with Circle K, RaceTrac, Steam Logistics, and TA expand reach.

What critics are saying

  • RoadSync's 2021 trade-secret case still frames Relay as a feature-fast follower.
  • Fuel-payment acceptance depends on partners like TA, Circle K, and Love's staying committed.
  • If brokers and fleets standardize on incumbents, Relay becomes a thin transaction layer.

What makes Relay Payments unique

  • Relay's June 2026 Platform Science integration embeds fuel payments inside driver tablets.
  • Relay Pulse, launched May 21, 2025, hardens fuel authorization against first-party fraud.
  • Relay's network spans 3,000+ fueling locations and 300+ integrations across fleet software.
