Lead type
Reinstated authority leads
A reinstated lead is a carrier whose operating authority was revoked or suspended — frequently for an insurance lapse — and is now being reinstated. Reinstatement requires proof of insurance on file, so these carriers are actively buying coverage to get back on the road.
Why reinstatement creates a lead
When a carrier's coverage lapses, FMCSA can revoke its authority. To reinstate, the carrier must put a valid insurance filing back on record. That makes reinstating carriers motivated, deadline-driven buyers.

Many reinstatement leads start as lapsed carriers — coverage ended with no replacement filed. Catching them at the lapse, before or during reinstatement, is the window.

Frequently asked questions
How is a reinstated lead different from new authority?
New authority is a brand-new carrier buying its first policy. A reinstated carrier already operated, lost authority (often over insurance), and must re-file coverage to resume.
