Boost earnings with discounts on essentials
For truck drivers and fleet owners, a successful career starts with a solid financial foundation. This includes proper budgeting and responsible money management. But it doesn't end there. By leveraging cost-saving opportunities, you can further reduce operating expenses, build savings, and increase your bottom line.
Panther helps you hold on to more of your money
One of the advantages of driving for Panther is having access to significant discounts. For example, did you know you could earn added payouts directly to your account through our free Driver Rewards Program? Here are some of the many other ways you can save as a member of the Panther fleet:
Competitive insurance rates
We prioritize our drivers' financial well-being by working with leading insurance providers to secure competitive rates. Get peace of mind with savings on comprehensive coverage, non-trucking liability coverage and physical damage protection.
Fuel discounts
Fuel discounts — ranging from 12 to 60 cents off per gallon — are available at TA, Petro and Love’s. These rates fluctuate and are updated regularly.
Savings on maintenance, products and services
Panther partners with Rush Truck Centers to offer discounted service on select preventative maintenance tasks. Our fleet web provides additional resources for discounts on products and services like satellite TV and hotels.
No trailer fees or costs for annual permits
We don’t pass any trailer costs to fleet owners or drivers. And all FMSCA-required annual permits are provided at no extra cost.
Tire discounts
Members of the Panther fleet are eligible to receive special pricing on select Goodyear commercial and consumer tires.
Complimentary driver recruiting services
Need good, qualified drivers to fill seats in your trucks? We’ve got you covered! Panther provides a free, dedicated in-house driver recruiting team for fleet owners with empty equipment. This way, you can focus on running your business and leave the talent acquisition to us.
5 other ways to save on the road
Along with using Panther’s various discounts, here are 5 simple ways to limit spending while traveling:
-
Participate in loyalty programs. Most truck stop chains, convenience stores and hotel chains have rewards programs that offer regular discounts and deals. Signing up is easy and usually free.
-
Prepare more meals. Eating in restaurants or grabbing quick-to-go options is convenient while on the road, but those costs can quickly add up. Search YouTube or your favorite online trucking forums for easy recipes and meal prep ideas.
-
Use free WiFi. Connect to free WiFi whenever possible to save on data charges.
-
Check mobile apps. Many apps designed for truck drivers provide helpful information on fuel prices, truck stops and discounts.

Join online trucking communities. Learn virtually from your peers! Find popular trucking groups on Facebook or search for web forums where drivers discuss all things trucking, including money-saving tips.
