The story
DFN Freight Exchange (DFNX) is a small (~7 employees) Canadian vertical SaaS company founded in 2020 that operates a broker-moderated digital freight marketplace. The product focus is on operational efficiency for freight brokers — posting loads, managing bids, tracking freight, uploading POD documents, and syncing orders to billing systems. There is no visible embedded finance layer beyond a mention of 'Automate Payments' as a platform feature; no BaaS, card issuing, lending, or KYC vendors are disclosed in public materials.
