Agreed Average MPG
Locked in with you when you sign on, based on your specific truck and equipment type — not renegotiated load by load.
Atlas Carrier Group • Pricing
Simple, disclosed, no surprises.
One commission structure. No setup fee. No long-term contract. Here's exactly what it costs to have us dispatch your truck.
We don't charge a setup fee or lock you into a term. You start at 5% of gross pay for your first 30 days, then move to 8% of net pay (after a standard loaded-fuel deduction) — only ever a percentage of loads we actually book for you.
Intro Rate
5%
of gross pay, first 30 days
Full dispatch service at a discounted rate while we earn your trust.
Standard Dispatch
8%
of net pay, ongoing
The same full-service dispatch, standard rate, after your first 30 days.
Fleet Partner
Coming Soon
for 2+ truck fleets
A dedicated tier for growing fleets — details soon.
All commission-based pricing is disclosed upfront before you run your first load with us — no hidden fees added after the fact.
No long-term contract on any tier — week-to-week, walk away any time.
Tier 01 • 5% of gross • first 30 days
Intro Rate
Every new carrier starts here. Full dispatch service at a discounted 5% of your gross pay for your first 30 days — no fuel deduction, no setup fee, no long-term contract.
- Full service from day one. Load booking, negotiation, and paperwork — same as any paying carrier.
- Calculated on gross. 5% of the full load payout, before any deduction — the simplest, cheapest way we can prove ourselves.
- No contract. Week-to-week — walk away any time, nothing owed beyond commission on loads already booked.
- Automatically converts. Moves to Standard Dispatch after your first 30 days — no action needed on your end.
Best for: Any new carrier ready to start working with a dispatcher right away.
Tier 02 • 8% of net • per load
Standard Dispatch
After your first 30 days, this is ongoing full-service dispatch for a single truck at our standard rate — calculated on net pay, meaning your gross minus a standard loaded-fuel deduction, not your full gross.
- Everything in Intro Rate, continued as your ongoing service.
- Calculated on net, not gross. We deduct an estimated loaded-fuel cost first, then take 8% of what's left — since fuel typically runs 15-30% of a load's gross payout, this often lands closer to a 6-7% effective rate on your full gross.
- Dedicated dispatcher. The same person learns your truck, your lanes, and your preferences.
- 24/7 support. A call or text away when something comes up on the road.
- Weekly load reports. Every invoice shows the gross, the fuel deduction, the net, and the commission math — so you can check it yourself.
Best for: Owner-operators continuing on with ongoing dispatch after their first 30 days.
How Net Pay Is Calculated
No receipts to chase down. Just a clean formula.
The Standard Dispatch rate is 8% of net pay — gross minus an estimated loaded-fuel cost. Here's exactly how that number gets calculated, every time:
Loaded Fuel = (Loaded Miles ÷ Agreed Average MPG) × Regional Average Fuel Price
Regional Fuel Price
Pulled from the U.S. Energy Information Administration's (EIA) published weekly diesel price index for your region — a public number, not something we set ourselves.
Shown on every invoice
Gross, fuel deduction, net, and the resulting commission are all broken out on your weekly invoice, so the math is never a black box.

FAQ
Common questions before you start.
Do you offer a free trial?
We don't run a free trial — instead every new carrier starts at a discounted 5% of gross pay for their first 30 days, moving to 8% of net pay after that.
Why does the rate go from gross to net?
The 5% intro rate is calculated on your full gross pay, no deductions — as cheap and simple as possible while we earn your trust. The 8% standard rate is calculated on net pay (after an estimated fuel deduction), which typically brings the effective cost on your gross closer to 6-7%.
How is the fuel deduction calculated?
Loaded Miles ÷ your Agreed Average MPG (locked in when you sign on) × the current weekly EIA regional diesel price. It's a public, verifiable formula — not a guess, and not based on chasing down fuel receipts.
Do I need my own MC authority?
Yes — we're a dispatch service, not a broker, so you'll need active authority (or authority under 90 days is fine too).
What if I want to stop working with you?
No problem. There's no long-term contract on either tier — it's week-to-week, so you can stop working with us at the end of any week.
When does Fleet Partner launch?
We're finalizing details now. Reach out on the Contact page and we'll follow up as soon as it's ready.
