CarGoal drivers keep 95% of every job's transport fee we only charge a 5% platform commission. Compare this to the 15 to 20% that informal port brokers take. On a GH₵ 5,000 Tema to Kumasi job, a CarGoal driver earns GH₵ 4,750. With consistent jobs through the CarGoal network, drivers report significantly higher monthly earnings than through traditional broker arrangements.

CarGoal drivers receive payment instantly the moment the importer confirms delivery. Payment goes directly to the driver's mobile money account MTN MoMo, Telecel Cash, or AirtelTigo within minutes of delivery confirmation. No waiting days or weeks for payment. No chasing importers for money. CarGoal's escrow system holds the payment securely from booking and releases it to you the moment delivery is confirmed.

Yes. Drivers need a smartphone with WhatsApp to receive job notifications and communicate through CarGoal's current WhatsApp-based system. When the CarGoal app launches, drivers will need the app installed to receive jobs, navigate routes, and confirm deliveries. Basic Android smartphones are sufficient CarGoal's app is optimised for low-data use.

No. CarGoal charges drivers just 5% per completed job one of the lowest platform fees in the industry. Traditional port brokers take 15 to 20% of the transport value. CarGoal's model is built to maximise driver earnings, not extract them. More earnings per job means drivers are motivated to deliver consistently and grow their rating on the platform.

Every CarGoal driver builds a performance score based on three metrics: Acceptance Rate (jobs accepted vs offered), On-Time Rate (deliveries completed on time), and Completion Rate (jobs finished without incident). Importers can also leave ratings after each delivery. Higher-rated drivers receive priority job matching and access to higher-value cargo. The rating system creates accountability and rewards reliable drivers with more business.

CarGoal currently has 400+ verified drivers across Ghana, covering all major routes from Tema Port. Our driver network spans 20ft flatbeds, 40ft flatbeds, open bucket trucks (20ft and 40ft), box trucks, single car carriers, and multi-car transporters. The network is growing as we approach our full app launch.

CarGoal is actively developing return trip matching connecting cargo from upcountry destinations back toward Tema and Accra for trucks completing long-haul deliveries. This feature reduces empty return miles and increases driver income per day on the road. Ask about availability when joining the network.

Yes. CarGoal welcomes single truck owner-operators. Whether you have one flatbed, one open bucket, or one box truck, you can join the network and start receiving job assignments from Tema Port. WhatsApp us at +233 555 389 551 with your truck type and details, and we'll get you registered and matched with cargo right away.

Each truck is matched to jobs based on its type and availability, giving you continuous job assignments across your entire fleet. You manage your trucks we bring the cargo. Contact us on WhatsApp at +233 555 389 551 to discuss a fleet partnership and contract arrangements tailored to your operation.

CarGoal accepts: 20ft flatbeds, 40ft flatbeds, 20ft open bucket trucks, 40ft open bucket trucks, box trucks (enclosed), single car carriers, and multi-car transporters. If your fleet includes any of these truck types, we have cargo waiting for you. Each truck and driver goes through the same verification process before being activated on the network.

Fleet owners have two payment options. For one-time trips, payment is released instantly to mobile money the moment the importer confirms delivery MTN MoMo, Telecel Cash, and AirtelTigo are all supported. For contract partnerships, fleet and truck owners can choose consolidated payment cycles: every 3 to 4 days, weekly (8 to 9 days), or monthly. Consolidated payments are calculated based on the number of trips completed within the chosen period, making them especially practical for town trips within the Accra to Tema enclave. Fleet owners can track earnings per truck and per trip through their WhatsApp conversation with CarGoal, with a full digital record of every job.

The CarGoal app is being prepared for Android and iOS. It will bring the same verified drivers, insurance, and transparent pricing into one simple experience.

CarGoal's current WhatsApp service provides manual tracking updates at key milestones driver assigned, cargo picked up, en route, and delivered. The CarGoal app (launching soon) includes full GPS live tracking: watch your cargo's exact position on a map from pickup to delivery, updated in real time.

CarGoal is built on three layers of safety: verified drivers (identity, license, and vehicle checked before any driver joins), cargo insurance (GH₵ 500,000 cover per shipment through Enterprise Insurance Ghana), and secure payment (funds held in escrow and released only on delivery confirmation your money is protected if delivery fails). Every transaction is recorded digitally with a full audit trail.

CarGoal is better than a broker in four ways. Speed: one WhatsApp message vs hours of phone calls. Price: 5% platform fee vs 15 to 20% broker markup. Safety: insured cargo vs uninsured informal arrangement. Visibility: real-time tracking vs no knowledge of where your cargo is. CarGoal replaces the middleman with a platform that works for both importers and drivers.

Yes. CarGoal operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week including weekends and public holidays. Cargo doesn't stop moving and neither does CarGoal. WhatsApp us at +233 555 389 551 any time.

CarGoal accepts Mobile Money (MTN MoMo, Telecel Cash, AirtelTigo), bank transfer, and card payment. Payment is collected securely at booking and held in escrow until delivery is confirmed at which point the driver's earnings are released instantly to their mobile money account.

Every CarGoal driver goes through a manual verification process before joining the network: national ID (Ghana Card) verification, valid driver's license check, vehicle registration inspection, and background assessment. Drivers who fail verification are not admitted to the network. This is why CarGoal can offer cargo insurance because verified drivers carry significantly lower risk than anonymous informal operators.

CarGoal currently specialises in cargo transport originating from Tema Port Ghana's largest and busiest port. We are expanding to include cargo movement from other origins across Ghana. If you have cargo moving between cities not involving Tema Port, contact us at +233 555 389 551 and we'll advise on availability.

Yes. Open bucket trucks on the CarGoal network are ideal for agricultural produce transport cocoa, maize, tomatoes, plantain, yam, and other bulk agricultural goods. We serve routes from port warehouses and farms to markets and processing facilities nationwide.

Yes. CarGoal's flatbed and open bucket trucks regularly transport building and construction materials including cement, steel rods, sand, gravel, timber, roofing sheets, and construction equipment from Tema Port to construction sites across Ghana.

CarGoal does for cargo transport what Uber does for passenger rides but built specifically for Ghana's port logistics market. Instead of passengers, we move containers and cargo. Instead of regular cars, we have 400+ verified flatbeds, open bucket trucks, and box trucks. Instead of metered fares, we use transparent distance-based cargo pricing. And every shipment includes GH₵ 500,000 cargo insurance something no regular transport arrangement provides.

CarGoal was founded by Richmond Akesseh and Desmond Osei Duodu two Ghanaian entrepreneurs who spent months interviewing importers, clearing agents, and drivers at Tema Port to understand the real problems in Ghana's port logistics chain. Together, they bring a decade and a half of combined hands-on experience in the port sector, grounded in a family lineage of importers, clearing agents, and freight forwarders. CarGoal is built from the ground up for the Ghanaian market, by people who understand it firsthand not just from research, but from generations of lived experience in the trade.

Four things make CarGoal trustworthy: verified drivers only (no unknown operators), cargo insurance on every shipment (GH₵ 500,000 through Enterprise Insurance Ghana), secure escrow payments (your money is protected until delivery confirmed), and transparent pricing (you see the full breakdown before paying nothing added after). Trust is built into the platform at every level.
