Aproms

What Aproms does

Aproms (Associação dos Postos de MS) is a Brazilian fuel station association founded in 2003 and headquartered in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, that operates APROMS NET, an electronic freight payment platform serving transport companies, accredited fuel stations, and truck drivers across Brazil. The platform handles freight document payments through a twice-weekly settlement cycle (Tuesdays and Thursdays), supports digitized document management with files exchanged before originals arrive, and issues CIOT (Electronic Manifest of Freight Operations) documents free of charge via an ANTT-homologated system.

The underlying technology combines electronic freight payment processing, digital document collection/verification, an accredited-network map-based locator, and an online balance calculator, integrated with transport companies via file exchange. APROMS NET also operates a Rede de Apoio (Support Network) that extends the accredited partner model to any business with commercial relationships to drivers along freight routes. Revenue is generated through transaction fees on freight payments processed through the accredited network; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with the company claiming the best cost-benefit rate in the Brazilian market. Distribution is via a direct sales-led motion (WhatsApp and phone outreach) and a channel-partner model in which accredited fuel stations and support networks serve as the primary customer touchpoints. The group operates without disclosed external investors, PE/VC backing, or a parent company, and ownership is held collectively by member stations consistent with cooperative-style association structures.

Broad incumbents

• TIVIT: TIVIT is a large Brazilian technology and digital services company that has been associated with Repom's electronic freight payment operations. It is comparable as a broader incumbent offering freight payment and logistics technology at national scale.
• Ticket Log (Edenred): Ticket Log, the Edenred-owned fleet management and fuel card business in Brazil, manages fleet fuel expenses at scale and competes for the fuel-station-payment relationship that APROMS NET addresses via its accredited network. It serves a broader fleet management mandate rather than pure freight payment.
• Ipiranga (Comply / Km de Vantagens): Ipiranga is one of Brazil's largest fuel retailers, with its own fleet/professional customer programs and digital tools that intersect with the fuel station and transport company relationships APROMS NET serves through its accredited network.
• ValeCard: ValeCard is a Brazilian fleet card and payment management business serving companies with vehicle fleets for fuel and maintenance purchases. It is comparable to APROMS NET in the fuel/fleet payment ecosystem, though it focuses on corporate fleet spend rather than freight-specific payment flows.

Emerging players

• 99Frete: 99Frete (backed by 99/Didi) operates a digital freight marketplace in Brazil connecting truckers to loads, with growing financial services offerings. It is comparable to APROMS NET as a digital intermediary serving Brazilian transport companies and drivers.

• FreteBras: FreteBras is a major Brazilian digital freight marketplace connecting shippers and truckers, with adjacent financial services including freight payments. While not a pure electronic freight payment platform, it competes for the same transport company wallet and increasingly bundles payment/credit services.
• TruckPad: TruckPad is a Brazilian digital platform connecting truck drivers and freight opportunities, with adjacent financial and support services for drivers. It overlaps with APROMS NET in serving the same Brazilian trucker and transport company ecosystem.

Direct peers

• PAGPRAX: PAGPRAX (formerly Prafrent/Prax) is a Brazilian electronic freight payment platform serving transport companies and fuel stations with similar document management and accredited network dynamics to APROMS NET. It competes head-to-head for the same transport company and posto credenciado segments.
• Repom: Repom is one of Brazil's largest electronic freight payment platforms, processing payments between transport companies and fuel stations/roadside establishments. It is the most direct competitor to APROMS NET in the Brazilian electronic freight payment (Pagamento Eletrônico de Frete) category, operating at significantly greater national scale.
