Outgo Mobile App Review 2026: iOS + Android Factoring From the Cab
Most factoring companies bolt mobile onto a desktop product. Outgo built the mobile app for drivers who run their business from the cab. Here is how the iOS and Android app actually performs — including the DAT One integration that beats Bobtail for load-board users.

The Outgo mobile app delivers a complete factoring workflow on iOS and Android: invoice submission, POD capture, broker credit checks, payment tracking, and DAT One rate confirmation auto-import. The DAT One integration is the headline feature and gives Outgo a clear workflow edge over Bobtail (which markets itself as mobile-first but has no load-board integration), Apex Capital, OTR Solutions, and Triumph mobile apps. Free download, no subscription fees — Outgo charges only on factored invoices.
Verdict: 4.5/5
Best fit: 1-5 truck operations using DAT One as primary load board. The rate confirmation auto-import eliminates 5-10 minutes of paperwork per invoice — that adds up to 4-8 hours per month for an active hotshot operator running 16+ loads.
Where Bobtail wins:Carriers not using DAT One get less differentiation from Outgo's integration play. Bobtail's standalone mobile design is comparable for those users.
Where Outgo wins: DAT One subscribers, hotshot operators, new authority carriers needing fast NOAs, and anyone running invoice submission from the cab instead of a home office.

CarPlay / Android Auto

The DAT One integration: why this matters for mobile
DAT One is the most-used load board in North America. Outgo is built by DAT — the same parent company. The mobile app is the highest-leverage place to use the integration. Here is the actual invoice flow on the Outgo mobile app for a DAT One booking:
- Find load in DAT One mobile app. Filter by lane, rate, broker DAT credit score.
- Book the load. DAT One generates the rate confirmation. Broker info, lane data, and rate are captured.
- Deliver, capture POD on Outgo app. Driver photographs signed POD with phone camera. App auto-crops and brightens.
- Open invoice creation flow. Outgo app pulls the rate confirmation from DAT One automatically — no re-typing.
- Attach POD, confirm details, submit. 30 seconds to submit a complete invoice packet.
- Funded in 2-4 hours. For repeat brokers, same-day funding is the norm. Push notification when cash hits.
The eliminated steps: re-typing broker info, manually entering lane data, copying the rate amount, attaching the rate confirmation PDF. For a carrier running 16 invoices per month, that is 4-8 hours of paperwork saved monthly — significant time back for solo owner-operators.

The Bobtail counter-narrative — and where Outgo actually wins
Bobtail markets itself aggressively as "mobile-first factoring." The marketing is accurate in one dimension: Bobtail's app is well-designed for standalone invoice submission. But the comparison breaks down once you look at the full workflow for active load-board users.
Bobtail standalone vs Outgo + DAT One
Bobtail requires manual rate confirmation entry. Outgo pulls from DAT One automatically. For DAT One subscribers, this is a 5-10 minute time savings per invoice.
NOA speed in the app
Bobtail issues NOAs in 1-2 business days. Outgo issues NOAs in minutes — including via the mobile app. For high-broker-count operators (hotshot especially), Outgo wins.
Broker credit checks in-app
Bobtail provides credit checks but does not have DAT credit data as the source. Outgo is built on DAT credit ratings — the industry standard. More accurate broker risk assessment.
New authority acceptance
Both accept new authority Day 1. Equivalent here.
Pure mobile UX polish
Bobtail has invested heavily in app polish. For carriers who do not use DAT One, Bobtail UX may feel more modern. Outgo is functional but not flashy.
How to download and set up the Outgo app
The app is free to download and use. You sign up for Outgo first (web or mobile), then log into the app with the same credentials. Here is the full setup:
- Sign up for Outgo factoring. Complete the online application with MC, DOT, EIN, insurance, and bank info. Approval typically same-day.
- Download the Outgo app. Available on iOS App Store and Google Play Store. Search for "Outgo" published by DAT Freight & Analytics.
- Log in with Outgo credentials. Same email and password used during web signup.
- Connect DAT One (optional but recommended). If you have a DAT One subscription, link the account in settings to enable rate confirmation auto-import.
- Add your first broker. Enter broker info, tap to generate NOA, email NOA to the broker for your carrier packet.
- Submit your first invoice from the app. Snap POD, attach rate confirmation, confirm details, submit. Funding typically 24-48 hours for first-time brokers.
The total setup time is typically 30-60 minutes assuming you have your docs ready. Most carriers are submitting first invoices within 1-3 days of MC authority activation.

FAQ — Outgo mobile app
Does Outgo have a mobile app?
Yes. Outgo offers a native mobile app available on both iOS (Apple App Store) and Android (Google Play). The app supports invoice submission, POD capture via phone camera, broker credit checks, payment status tracking, and integration with DAT One load board for rate confirmation auto-import.
Can I submit invoices from my phone with Outgo?
Yes. The Outgo mobile app supports complete invoice submission from a phone. The workflow: snap a photo of the signed POD, attach the rate confirmation (auto-imported from DAT One or manually added), confirm broker details, and submit. Most invoices process within 2-4 hours of submission for repeat brokers.
Is Outgo mobile app better than Bobtail app?
For carriers using DAT One as their load board, yes. Bobtail markets itself as mobile-first, and its app is well-designed for invoice submission. The Outgo advantage comes from DAT One integration — rate confirmations flow directly from the load board into the factoring workflow, eliminating manual data entry. If you use DAT One, Outgo + DAT One in one mobile workflow beats Bobtail standalone.
Does the Outgo app work offline?
Partially. The Outgo mobile app supports offline POD capture — drivers can photograph signed PODs in remote areas without cell signal, and the app will queue the upload for when connection returns. Full invoice submission requires connectivity for broker verification and rate confirmation pull. For drivers running rural lanes, the offline POD capture is the most useful resilience feature.
Can drivers track payment status on the Outgo mobile app?
Yes. The Outgo app shows real-time invoice status: submitted, under broker verification, approved for funding, funded, or collected from broker. Drivers see each step in the timeline with timestamps. Payment notifications come via push notification when funds hit the bank account, typically within 2-4 business hours of approval.
Does the Outgo app integrate with DAT One?
Yes — this is the headline integration. Carriers who book loads on DAT One have rate confirmations automatically flow into the Outgo mobile app. No re-typing broker info, lane data, or rate amount. Sign in with DAT credentials once, and DAT One load bookings sync. This is the workflow advantage Outgo has over Bobtail, Apex, OTR Solutions, and Triumph mobile apps for DAT One users.
What does the Outgo app cost to use?
The Outgo mobile app is free to download and use. There are no subscription fees, no per-month app charges, and no separate mobile-app pricing. Outgo charges per factored invoice (flat $20-$35 per invoice) — the same fee whether you submit invoices via mobile app or web dashboard. The app is a workflow tool, not a paywalled product.
Is the Outgo app available on iPhone and Android?
Yes. Outgo publishes a native app on the iOS App Store (compatible with iPhone iOS 14+) and Google Play Store (compatible with Android 8+). Both apps share the same feature set. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are not integrated — the app is designed for stationary use (in-cab when stopped, at home, at the truck stop), not while driving.
Mobile-first factoring done right
Outgo + DAT One = factoring workflow built for drivers, not back-office staff. iOS and Android. Free download. Same-day funding.
