Driver Settlements: Automate Accuracy and Build Driver Trust
Aurora’s Driver Settlements module pulls live dispatch, mileage, and pay-rule data directly from your TMS to calculate every payout with precision. Eliminate manual entry, reduce disputes, and give drivers complete visibility into their earnings.
About Driver Settlements
Aurora’s Driver Settlements module simplifies complex payout processes through complete integration with your TMS. It calculates driver and contractor pay directly from shipment, routing, and mileage data already stored in your system. By removing third-party tools and manual spreadsheets, Aurora ensures every payout is accurate, transparent, and aligned with your billing data.
Built to handle any pay structure, Driver Settlements supports company drivers, owner-operators, and mixed fleets with flexible rules that scale. Real-time updates reflect route and order changes instantly, while all supporting documentation is automatically attached for a clear audit trail.
