Math only: weekly gross × days to pay ÷ 7. Fee = your quoted % × about 4.33 weeks of gross. Your real terms and fees come from your broker and factor, not this page.

Close the gap with factoring

When we ran our dispatch desk, waiting on broker pay was one of the main reasons new carriers ran short on cash. Factoring pays you on the invoice instead of on the broker's terms. The factor we point carriers to is Triumph. Triumph lists same-day funding, free broker credit checks, fuel advances up to 50%, and no minimums or reserves (from Triumph’s own page). If this calculator shows a gap before your first load pays, that’s the moment to set it up.
