Prove you're really the company. Once.
Every vetting check in freight ultimately asks the same question: is this really the company on the MC, or someone wearing its number? The badge answers it publicly, so it stops being asked one broker at a time.
How it works
We read your federal record
Your MCS-150 filing puts a contact email on your public FMCSA record. We look it up — the same source vetting tools use.
You see it masked
d•••@y•••.com — enough to recognize your own address, useless to anyone else.
One-time code
We send a 6-digit code to that address. Only someone with access to the company's on-record inbox can complete this step — that's the whole proof.
Badge goes live
✓ FMCSA-Verified appears on your page and link previews. Your page becomes search-indexable and joins the verified directory.
Why this specific check matters now
The email-vs-record match is the highest-signal identity check in modern carrier vetting — because double-brokering scams almost never control the real company's email. And since the Supreme Court's Montgomery v. Caribe ruling made carrier selection a legal liability, brokers need carriers whose identity they can document. Pre-verified is the new preferred.
No usable email on your record? Fixable — free.
Tons of legitimate carriers have a filing agent's email (or nothing) on their FMCSA record. You still get your site — and we walk you through the 10-minute MCS-150 update so you can verify after it processes. Pro tip: once you have name@yourcompany.com, put that on your record — then the email-domain check passes everywhere, automatically, forever.
Verification questions
What is the FMCSA-Verified badge?
Proof that you control the contact email on your official FMCSA record. We send a one-time code to the address FMCSA has on file; enter it and the badge goes live. It's the same identity check broker vetting tools run — answered before it's asked.
What happens if FMCSA has an old or agent email on my record?
You still get your site — verification just waits. We show you exactly how to update your MCS-150 (free, about 10 minutes at the FMCSA Portal); once it processes, come back and verify for the badge.
Is TenFour affiliated with FMCSA?
No. FMCSA is the federal regulator and doesn't endorse third-party products. TenFour builds from your public FMCSA record and independently verifies your control of the contact on it.
Why does my email domain matter so much?
Because it's the first identity check in broker vetting - a free Gmail can't prove company affiliation, while an email at your own domain can be matched against your company and your FMCSA record. It's the difference between clearing vetting in 30 seconds and getting passed over.
