Same CyntrX. Bigger Family.

We’re both pleased and excited to announce that CyntrX has been acquired by Radius Payment Solutions, a UK-based global solutions provider for SMEs within the fleet and logistics markets. We’ll continue to operate as CyntrX, and continue to provide the same industry-leading services as always, including all of the telematics-driven business intelligence, ELD solutions, trailer tracking, and so much more.

So what changes? Well, we promise that we’re not suddenly going to start calling trucks lorries -- but as time goes on, the changes you’ll see will be more and more integrations of the world-class services and solutions offered by Radius. In the meantime, we’ll be here, continuing to deliver the telematics services and solutions that you rely on to manage your fleet -- and that’s a promise.
