Annual size of the transportation sector is 300 billion TL
In our country, where 92% of the transportation is done by highways, 600 thousand trucks carry loads every day. In Turkey, Europe’s largest truck market, 850 thousand trucks are on the road. 1.2 million SRC certified drivers earn their living from this business. Hundreds of logistics companies, transport cooperatives, warehouses and thousands of subcontractors are engaged in freight organization and transportation.
“Payment” is one of the most critical processes in the transportation sector, where an annual amount of money is over 300 Billion TL. Because the rate of trucks belonging to the logistics companies, called “ÖZMAL”, is below 5%. 95% of the trucks on the roads in Turkey belong to individuals. The entire operational load of the truck is on the back of the trucker. For the trucker, the liquidity of payment and payment instruments is vitally critical.
Daily shipping payment amount in Turkey is over 800 Million TL. At least 1/3 of this amount is made directly in cash. The amount of daily cash payments made to truck drivers in Turkey is over 250 million TL.
