A guide to onboarding with the Wise last-mile delivery platform

11 January, 2024

The Wise Platform provides innovative technology to companies that use drivers in their day-to-day operations – to save time, money and grow their business. 

Providing an efficient onboarding process for your workforce is crucial now more than ever in today’s fast paced world – nearly everyone wants to begin work immediately to start earning cash! If your onboarding process is proving too slow and long-winded, you could find that you will struggle to recruit as people will opt to work for your competitors.

Overview of the Wise Platform

Our innovative platform currently supports over 250 clients in the logistics industry with our cutting edge tools and solutions.

OnboardingOnboard new recruits in as little as 10 minutes. With the Wise driver app, you are able to remove manual tasks and reduce paperwork. We streamline the onboarding of your workforce, so you can get drivers out on the road quicker than ever.

Compliance Compliance can be confusing, but we make it simple! The Wise Platform has been created to make being compliant as easy as possible, our software sends automatic notifications to your drivers every 10 months to resign their Service Level Agreement and all documents that have been uploaded can be downloaded into an audit pack for carriers or HMRC.

Also, our specialist compliance team is on hand to review and enhance your contracts or even create a tailored, compliant contract for your business.

Payments  – Bid farewell to payment headaches – you can save 10 hours per week by using the Wise payment technology.

Pay all your users in bulk, using our simplified software, reduce your admin time and be confident knowing your processing accurate payments. On top of this, your workforce are able to view their upcoming payments directly within the Wise app, creating a smooth communication line and visibility of what is due.

Retain – The logistics industry is notorious for having a high turnover rate, with Wise you can stay competitive in a high demand industry by offering perks, at no extra cost to you.

With the logistics industry, consisting of many self-employed drivers, you are unable to provide your workforce perks directly. However, we’re here to help you provide perks, like never before!

Wise is the market-leading software for onboarding, payments and compliance – do not miss out!
