Model exactly how you pay — once — and FAST applies it to every trip, every settlement, every week.
The short version
FAST models any linehaul pay structure precisely: per-mile and flat-leg linehaul, tiered spot rates by lane, drop & hook, per diem, fuel-aware percentage pay, and per-driver overrides. Set the rules once and every settlement calculates itself — correctly.
The details are where the money leaks
No two carriers pay the same way, and the exceptions are where margin quietly disappears — a spot lane that pays differently, a driver with a special rate, a fuel component that should come out before the percentage. In a spreadsheet, each of those is a formula someone has to remember. Get one wrong and you overpay, underpay, or spend the week arguing about it.
Spot loads pay differently by lane, but your spreadsheet uses one flat rate.
A driver has a special rate that someone has to remember to apply by hand.
Fuel is (or isn’t) netted out before percentage pay — depending on who ran payroll.
Changing a rate means editing formulas and hoping you didn’t break last month.
Pay rules live in Company Setup — Payroll Options, Fuel Options, and spot-rate configuration.
Every way you pay, modeled as a rule
Per-mile & linehaul
Rate x miles, loaded/empty, and flat-leg pay — with the exact rounding and rules you use today.
Tiered spot rates
Pay spot work by tier or by named lane, with automatic migration from legacy single-rate setups.
Drop & hook + per diem
Accessorial and per-diem pay handled as first-class rules, not manual line items.
Fuel-aware pay
Net out fuel components before revenue-percentage math so percentage pay is always correct.
Per-driver overrides
Give a driver a different rate or spot override without breaking your company defaults.
Payout buttons & exports
One-tap payout rules and a pay-doc export layout that matches how you already work.
Tiered spot rates & per-driver overrides
Spot work is where linehaul pay gets complicated. FAST handles it natively: pay by tier or by named lane, give an individual driver a spot rate that beats the company default, and migrate a legacy single-rate setup into the tiered model without losing history. The right amount is calculated automatically — never negotiated in a spreadsheet.
Every trip paid on the exact rule you intended — spot, per-mile, drop & hook, or per diem.
Per-driver overrides that don’t break your company defaults.
Fuel handled correctly before percentage math, every time.
Rate changes that apply going forward without rewriting finalized pay.
