Stripe Integration for Logistics Platforms

Freight and logistics payments run on B2B terms, not consumer checkout expectations — net-30 or net-60 invoicing, large transaction values where bank transfers beat card fees by a wide margin, and often a multi-party payout structure across carriers, brokers, and the platform itself.

B2B Invoicing and Multi-Party Payout Patterns

• Stripe Invoicing configured with custom net terms and automated reminder sequencing rather than immediate-due defaults
• Bank transfer/ACH as the default rail for high-value freight transactions, cards reserved for smaller ad hoc charges
• Connect-based payout splitting across carriers and brokers, using the same architecture we apply to marketplace platforms
• Late-payment handling that matches B2B norms (grace periods, late fees) rather than consumer dunning sequences

The mistake we most often correct in existing logistics integrations is B2B invoicing bolted onto a payment flow originally built for consumer transactions — net terms and multi-party payouts are a different problem shape than a one-time card charge, and treating them as an afterthought is usually where reconciliation breaks down at scale.
