During National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, Gophr is promoting recurring commissions for current and prospective drivers.
LAKE CHARLES, LA, UNITED STATES, September 16, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Gophr App, Inc. today announced the nationwide rollout of a new driver affiliate program, giving approved drivers recurring commissions on referred business customer orders, even when another driver makes the delivery.
Following successful beta testing in July 2026, the program is available throughout the continental United States. 8,000 Gophr drivers are automatically enrolled while new drivers can apply using Gophr’s mobile driver app. Approval typically takes 24hrs, according to the company.
The announcement coincides with National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, Sept. 13 through 19, recognizing America’s 3.6 million professional truck drivers and as higher fuel prices increase operating costs for independent drivers. The U.S. Energy Information Administration reported regular gasoline at $4.157 per gallon on Sept. 7, up 96.5 cents from a year earlier. On-highway diesel averaged $5.967, up $2.201.
“For an independent driver, a higher fuel bill takes money directly out of what they bring home,” said David Soileau, co-founder and chief revenue officer of Gophr App, Inc. “These drivers know local businesses that need dependable delivery service week after week. When they introduce those businesses to Gophr, they can earn a share of qualifying orders from the account, including deliveries handled by other drivers. That gives their local relationships lasting earning potential.”
How it works
Each approved driver receives a unique QR code through the mobile app to share with businesses that need delivery services. When a new customer creates an account using that code, Gophr attributes the account to the referring driver.
Driver affiliates begin by earning 1% of the gross order revenue Gophr collects from qualifying referred accounts. The commission applies to qualifying orders regardless of which driver or vehicle type fulfills them and continues while the customer remains active and in good standing under the program terms. According to program details, an affiliate’s commission rate can grow to as much as 5% based on total referred revenue based on factors such as account quality, order frequency, customer retention, professionalism, and overall account revenue growth.
This new program supports Gophr’s expansion beyond its strongest historical operating presence along the Gulf Coast from Houston to New Orleans.
“The technology behind this program allows Gophr App to connect national delivery capacity with the knowledge drivers have about their own markets,” said Warren Vandever, founder and chief executive officer of Gophr App, Inc. “Our long-term vision is to give businesses a faster and more transparent way to manage deliveries while creating meaningful opportunities for the people helping us expand into new communities.”
Referred businesses receive access to instant quotes, real-time tracking, direct driver communication, and vehicle options ranging from sedans to 18-wheelers. Gophr uses AI-assisted dispatch to match deliveries with appropriate vehicles and approved drivers.
Common questions about the Gophr App Driver Affiliate Program
Who can participate?
Existing approved Gophr App drivers and new applicants who become approved can access the program throughout the continental United States.
How are referrals tracked?
The driver’s unique QR code links a new customer account to the referring affiliate driver. As new orders are placed, the referring affiliate is credited a share of each sale starting at 1% with the potential to grow to 5%.
Must affiliates personally complete each delivery?
No. Affiliates earn commissions on qualifying orders from their referred business accounts, even when other Gophr drivers complete the deliveries. This benefits drivers of both large trucks and standard-size vehicles when a load is too large or too small for their vehicle.
The program is now live. Any driver can apply at GophrApp.com/drivers or download the Gophr Driver App for Apple iOS or Android.
