I do not have a credit card; can I use someone else's credit card to apply for a USDOT Number?

The FMCSA uses a credit card to verify the identity of the individual submitting the application. The FMCSA systems have the necessary security controls to prevent unauthorized access to the credit card information.
The exception to this rule is if an agent is filing a motor carrier's applications, the agent may use his or her credit card to complete the registration.
Since the implementation of the Unified Registration System in 2015, applicants can also pay using their checking account information.
