Trust, Verified.

Know who you're working with, before freight moves. 
Launching February 26, 2026.

A Faster Way to Verify Carrier Identity is Coming

SCAC Verified strengthens the industry’s most widely used carrier identifier by adding identity verification at issuance and renewal, so the people moving freight can reduce fraud risk, protect legitimate businesses, and operate with greater confidence. 

It’s the same Standard Carrier Alpha Code® (SCAC) the industry already depends on—now enhanced to help stop impersonation, double brokering, and fictitious pickups, before they happen. 

The Problem Isn't Data.

It's a Lack of Trust.

Freight fraud doesn’t succeed because systems are broken. 
It succeeds because identity is unclear at the moments that matter:

Onboarding, tendering, and pickup.

Bad actors exploit gaps between systems, reuse stolen identities, and impersonate legitimate carriers. The result:

Financial loss

Operation

Operational disruption

Reputation

Reputational damage

 

The industry needs a shared, reliable way to check trust—without slowing freight down.

The Outcome: Fewer Blind Spots, More Confidence

SCAC Verified helps the industry move from assumption to assurance. 

With SCAC Verified, you can:  

  • Confirm carrier identity using a code the entire industry already recognizes;

  • Reduce exposure to identity-based fraud without adding friction; and

  • Align teams around one consistent signal.

When trust is easier to check, fraud becomes harder to execute. 

What SCAC Verified Delivers

Trust Signal-Driver2-pt3

Confidence at the Point of Decision

SCAC Verified confirms that a real individual completed identity verification during the SCAC issuance or renewal process—so you’re not relying on unverified claims. 

Consistency Across the Industry

Because SCAC is already embedded across freight systems, SCAC Verified creates one shared signal—not another siloed tool.

Protection for Legitimate Carriers

By raising the barrier to impersonation, SCAC Verified helps protect carriers’ identities, reputations, and livelihoods. 

Privacy Without Compromise

Only status information is shared. No personal data. No exposure of sensitive information.

How SCAC Verified Works

SCAC Verified builds trust into the SCAC lifecycle, without changing how the industry already operates.

  • Identity verification occurs at SCAC issuance and renewal 
  • SCAC status becomes a checkable trust signal 
  • Users can search and confirm SCAC status through the SCAC Verified platform 

This turns SCAC from a static identifier into a living signal of trust.

A Shared Signal Makes a Stronger Industry

Freight fraud is a shared problem, and shared signals are how the industry responds. 

When carriers, brokers, shippers, and platforms rely on the same verified identifier, trust scales across the network, and bad actors lose room to operate.
