For 3PLs · Cash flow
Get paid before you ship.
3PLs have been forced to act like banks — fronting carrier costs and waiting weeks to be paid back. RocketFuel funds shipments in real time from a customer-prepaid balance, so you get paid before you pay carriers.
Stop financing your customers' shipping.
- Net-30 invoicing You float carrier costs for weeks.
- Chasing AR Reminders, statements, late payers.
- A line of credit Borrowing to cover the gap.
The New Normal
- Cash positive
- No AR to chase
- Funded before you pay
What prepaid billing does.
- Prepaid wallet Per-customer balance funded via ACH or credit card. PCI-compliant processor — RocketFuel never holds card data.
- Auto-recharge Drops below threshold, the saved method is charged automatically. Set the amount and threshold per customer.
- Direct deposit Funds land in your bank within days. RocketFuel never holds the money — straight from processor to you.
- Ledger-backed history Every shipment, adjustment, recharge, and void recorded with the resulting balance. Always traceable.
- Net terms when needed Activity-date-based: Net 7 means a shipment on the 1st accrues on the 8th. Predictable, never invoice-cycle dependent.

Getting paid before you ship is what the Recharge Meter does — a customer-prepaid balance that funds carrier costs in real time and auto-recharges on a threshold.
Frequently asked questions
Can I still offer net terms?
Yes. RocketFuel runs activity-date-based net terms — Net 7 means shipments on the 1st accrue on the 8th, the 2nd on the 9th, and so on. Predictable, not invoice-cycle dependent. You control the terms without becoming the bank.
What about third-party or LTL/FTL shipments?
Mark a parcel account as third party and RocketFuel won't bill for it. LTL and FTL get logged through manual charges — captured without forcing them through the parcel pipeline.
Does my warehouse team need to learn anything new?
No. Your WMS still runs the warehouse. RocketFuel hooks into the WMS and shipping API at label generation; the billing runs in the background.
