​CAT Scale’s Weigh My Truck™ App Now Accepting the Comdata Card for Payments

April 2016

WALCOTT, IA… CAT Scale Company is pleased to announce that its very popular Weigh My Truck application has added the Comdata Card to its available payment methods.

The Weigh My Truck application allows drivers to weigh their truck and pay for the transaction all from their smartphone. Drivers can weigh and then get the weights displayed right on their phone without ever leaving the cab. The app will also email a PDF copy scale ticket or weight information text file to up to five email addresses the driver specifies. If a driver needs a hard copy scale ticket, they can still pick up a printed CAT Scale ticket at the fuel desk within an hour after weighing using the Weigh My Truck application. Fleets have additional options available for driver enrollment and data receipt.

“We understand how valuable time is to a driver,” says Delia Meier, Senior Vice President of CAT Scale Company. “Use of the Weigh My Truck app has proven to have a significant and positive impact on the driver’s time. Having the Comdata Card available for payment within the app opens it up to an even greater number of CAT Scale customers, while still providing the fleets with confidence that their required controls and limits are in place.”

Kelle’s Transport Services, which operates more than 285 trucks and 400 reefer trailers from its headquarters in Salt Lake City, Utah, has been using the payment solution with Comdata for their CAT Scale transactions. “The time savings on the road have been invaluable,” said Carrie Burbidge, fuel and permits manager at Kelle’s. “Our drivers are easily saving 35 minutes or more for each transaction with this process.”

“We are excited to join with CAT Scale and integrate the Comdata Card for payment with the Weigh My Truck mobile app,” said Greg Secord, president of North American Trucking at Comdata. “Time is increasingly critical for our fleet customers and their drivers, so we are pleased to be able to help them simplify payment during the weighing process while still providing appropriate controls and oversight for the transaction.”
