Running a fleet without systems costs more than you think
Without Niimbu
- You started a logistics company to move goods, not to chase fuel receipts. Without a system, fuel costs are guessed. Driver settlements take days. Route profitability is invisible.
With Niimbu
- Niimbu tracks every trip, every fill-up, every driver payment — so you know the real cost of every delivery.
Pay every driver, owner-operator and hauler on time
Whether you run three trucks or three hundred, getting payments right keeps your drivers on the road. Niimbu calculates driver wages, trip allowances and owner-operator settlements from verified trip data. Payments go out on the agreed date, every time, from the same account that handles fuel and maintenance.
- Trip-based and salary-based driver pay calculated automatically
- Owner-operator settlements with trip, fuel and toll breakdowns
- Per-diem and allowance tracking per route
- Payslips and payment records accessible to each driver
Know exactly where every litre of fuel goes
Fuel is the single largest variable cost for any fleet. Without tracking, discrepancies between pump readings, tank levels and driver claims add up to millions of naira a year. Niimbu logs every fill-up against a specific vehicle, trip and driver, so you see the real cost per kilometre and catch anomalies before they become losses.
- Fuel logged per vehicle, per trip, per driver
- Fuel card reconciliation with station and litre records
- Average cost per kilometre calculated automatically
- Anomaly alerts when consumption deviates from the norm

Fleet costs are under control and drivers are paid on time.
Before Niimbu, settling an owner-operator took two weeks of chasing receipts and doing maths on a spreadsheet. Now the settlement is ready within 48 hours of the truck returning, and the drivers trust the numbers.
Questions logistics operators ask
Everything you need to know about running your fleet on Niimbu.
Is Niimbu built for Nigerian logistics and haulage companies?
Yes. Niimbu is designed for Nigerian logistics operations, from last-mile delivery startups in Lagos to inter-state haulage fleets running between Port Harcourt and Kano. It handles trip management, driver payroll, fuel tracking and owner-operator settlements in Naira, with support for local bank transfers.
Can I manage both company-owned trucks and owner-operators?
Yes. Company-owned vehicles and owner-operator trucks are managed in the same account. Owner-operator settlements are calculated from trip revenue, fuel and agreed deductions, so each hauler sees exactly what they earned and what was deducted.
How does fuel tracking work?
Every fill-up is logged against a specific vehicle, driver and trip. You can record litres, cost and fuel station. Niimbu calculates average cost per kilometre per vehicle and flags anomalies when consumption deviates from the norm, whether from excessive idling, route deviations or fuel diversion.
Can drivers log trips from their phones?
Yes. Drivers or dispatchers can log trip details, departure, delivery confirmation, fuel, tolls and expenses, from a mobile phone. The data is captured at the point of action, so trip records are complete and accurate by the time the truck returns.
Does Niimbu handle inter-state haulage accounting?
Yes. Trips between states are tracked with route-specific costs including tolls, fuel, driver per-diem and loading fees. Revenue is linked to each trip, so you see the profit per route, whether it is Lagos to Abuja, Port Harcourt to Onitsha or any other corridor.
How do driver payments work?
You set up each driver's pay structure, salary, trip-based or a combination. When payroll runs, Niimbu calculates wages from verified trip data, deducts advances and loans if applicable, and pays each driver on the agreed date. Payslips are generated and accessible to each driver.
Can I track vehicle maintenance and insurance?
Yes. Every vehicle has a record with registration details, insurance policy dates and road-worthiness certificates. Niimbu tracks service intervals and sends reminders when maintenance is due. Repair costs are logged against each vehicle so you know the total cost of ownership.
Does it work for last-mile delivery companies?
Yes. Last-mile delivery operations in Lagos, Abuja and other cities use Niimbu to manage dispatch riders, track deliveries and reconcile COD collections. The same platform handles fleet management for two-wheelers and four-wheelers alike.
What does it cost to get started?
Opening an account is free and there is no monthly platform fee. You pay per transaction when money moves, driver payments, fuel purchases and settlements. A quiet month costs you nothing, and you can add vehicles, drivers and routes without extra charges.
How long does it take to set up a logistics operation on Niimbu?
Most logistics companies are running trips within a week. The setup involves registering your vehicles, adding drivers with their pay structures and importing your active routes. The Niimbu team supports you through the process.
