Consent, handled
Drivers approve a check from their own phone.
A DVLA licence check needs to be approved by the employee or the contractor — that is the law. CarCloud asks for it directly, inside the CarCloud app, delivered and approved on their phone whenever it is requested, removing the need for time-consuming emails and messages back and forth.
One consent can last for up to three years of multiple checks. CarCloud tracks when it might expire and asks again before it lapses. Nobody has to chase a form, and nobody has to remember a date.

What it costs
£2.99 per licence check.
Charged per check rather than per driver per month — so the cost follows your recheck policy, not your headcount. Work out what that means for your fleet:
£2.99 per check. Indicative — your policy sets the frequency, and the frequency sets the cost.
Know who is allowed to drive today, before they leave the yard.
Licence checks with the driver’s consent, rechecked on a cycle you set, for every driver including grey fleet.
What changes
Three questions stop being difficult.
Can this person drive today?
Viewed immediately from the desktop, tablet or app rather than reconstructed from emails.
Who is our riskiest driver?
Surfaced as points appear, not at the annual review.
Can you evidence it?
Consents and checks held together for audit.
