The logistics payments process could soon get more efficient for some users, as Texas-based payments network provider TriumphPay said that freight broker ArcBest had joined its platform.

According to ArcBest, the move will let it better serve carriers, improve operational efficiency, and enhance payment security in transportation and logistics.
