AtoB Announces $130 Million in Funding to Drive Innovation in the Trucking Industry

AtoB, a leading provider of modern payment solutions for the transportation industry, has announced major milestones, including securing $130 million in equity and debt funding. This latest round of investment, which comes as part of AtoB’s Series C, will fuel the company’s product expansion and team growth, further supporting its mission to transform the financial systems that power the trucking industry.

The funding round was led by General Catalyst and Bloomberg Beta, with additional participation from Mastercard and other key players in the trucking and logistics sectors. The investment will enable AtoB to continue offering innovative payment solutions designed to meet the unique needs of fleet owners, trucking companies, and independent truck drivers—a critical segment of the U.S. economy that often faces financial challenges.

“As AtoB continues to grow and scale, we remain dedicated to transforming the trucking industry’s financial systems,” said Vignan Velivela, CEO of AtoB. “Trucking is one of the largest occupations in the U.S., with small and medium-sized trucking businesses making up the vast majority of fleets today. These milestones will allow us to better support truckers and the small businesses they represent—the backbone of America’s economy—with tools that promote transparency and efficiency.”

Addressing Industry Challenges with Fintech Solutions

AtoB’s innovative approach to financial technology helps trucking companies navigate common financial hurdles, including rising fuel costs and tight profit margins. The company’s flagship product, the AtoB Carrier Wallet, offers fleet owners and drivers 24/7 instant access to earnings while managing both fuel and non-fuel expenses. This solution is designed to help drivers optimize their finances, reduce fraud, and maintain financial stability—crucial factors for success in the fast-paced world of transportation.

Rapid Growth Fueled by Strategic Partnerships

Over the past year, AtoB has seen a staggering 500% increase in revenue and transaction volume, thanks to partnerships with industry giants like Uber Freight and Mastercard. AtoB’s collaboration with Uber Freight includes a co-branded fuel card aimed at streamlining fuel purchases and helping trucking companies manage operational costs more efficiently.

Additionally, AtoB’s partnerships with freight factoring companies, top-10 brokerages, and energy firms have further strengthened its position as a key player in the transportation fintech space. By focusing on delivering cutting-edge payment solutions, AtoB is well-positioned to continue supporting small and medium-sized trucking businesses as they navigate the evolving financial landscape.
