Three Ways to Get Started

ChargeGuard's core functionality -- tracking detention and accessorial charges -- works from a driver's phone (a photo and a couple of taps), manual entry, or a CSV upload. Pick whichever fits how your carrier already operates.

Nothing to Install or Connect

There is no separate hardware or software to install, and nothing to connect or configure. Every carrier uses ChargeGuard the same way, on day one.

Flexibility for Small-to-Midsize Carriers

ChargeGuard is designed for small-to-midsize carriers who want a simple way to start, regardless of what other software they run. The platform adapts to your workflow, not the other way around.

No Lock-In

ChargeGuard does not require or favor any specific system your carrier already uses. Manual entry and CSV upload work the same way regardless of your existing setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need any special hardware or software to use ChargeGuard?

No. ChargeGuard works from a driver's phone (a photo and a couple of taps), manual entry, or a CSV upload -- nothing else to install or connect.

What if I already use other trucking software?

You don't need to change anything. ChargeGuard works the same way regardless of what other software your carrier already uses -- there is nothing to connect or configure.

Does ChargeGuard work with my specific setup?

Yes -- manual entry, CSV upload, and the driver app work identically no matter what other systems you run today.

Will this change in the future?

If ChargeGuard ever adds a way to connect other systems, it will remain optional -- manual entry and CSV upload will keep working exactly as they do today.
