Fast UK Couriers - Delivery management platform

The Problem

Challenges Courier Delivery Faced

Manual Parcel and Rider Assignment

Dispatchers assigned parcels to riders by hand, without checking parcel size or vehicle type, which caused delays, mismatched deliveries and wasted effort.

No Real-Time Visibility for Customers

Senders and business clients could not see where a parcel was, so they kept calling for updates and had little confidence in delivery times.

Complicated Billing and Payments for Businesses

Business accounts needed a simple way to manage monthly delivery credits and invoices, and customers wanted to pay with their preferred method without friction.
