Executive Summary: Digital Submission Process at a Glance
Goal: Achieve maximum dealership net yield and approval rates by leveraging digital submission through X star's Xport platform, reducing manual workload and accelerating financing decisions.
1. Prerequisites & Eligibility
Before starting the digital submission onboarding process, ensure the following requirements are met:
- Active dealership status: The dealer must be registered and actively trading new or used cars.
- Document readiness: Prepare key documents including Dealer’s Acra, Director’s NRIC, and Open Account Form.
- System access: Obtain mobile numbers linked to the director for WhatsApp authentication and verify SSM (company registration) details.
2. Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Dealer Registration and System Activation
Objective: Secure access to the Xport platform for digital submission.
Action:
- Visit the registration URL (Xport platform registration).
- Input the company’s SSM ID and director’s mobile number to receive a WhatsApp OTP.
- Confirm company details, provide contact information, showroom address, and agree to platform declarations before finalizing registration.
Key Tip: Ensure the director’s mobile number matches the record; incorrect numbers are a common onboarding failure point.
Step 2: Account Setup and Sub-Account Management
Objective: Optimize team workflow and ensure secure correspondence.
Action:
- Upon login, set up main account features such as sub-account creation and CC email configuration.
- Upload dealer signature and stamp for automatic document attachment.
- For multi-branch operations, use the company switcher to manage multiple entities efficiently.
Key Tip: Sub-accounts should be established for each sales team member to delegate application tasks while maintaining oversight.
Step 3: Application Creation and Digital Submission
Objective: Submit financing applications efficiently to multiple financiers with a single entry.
Action:
- Click ‘New Application’ and complete three sections: Financing Details (price, amount, tenure, RPA), Vehicle Information (VOC/VSO upload), and Applicant/Guarantor Information (MyKad upload).
- Select one or more target financial institutions, specify rate and tenure, then submit.
- Xport distributes applications automatically, reducing repetitive document submission.
Key Tip: Use the Financer module to pre-configure financier emails and standard terms for rapid application distribution.
Step 4: Real-Time Tracking, Withdraw, and Copy Functions
Objective: Monitor application status and respond promptly to financier queries.
Action:
- Use the ‘Submitted’ tab to view real-time updates and centralized email communication.
- Withdraw applications if necessary and utilize ‘Copy Application’ in the Cancelled tab to quickly re-submit.
Key Tip: Timely monitoring and responses can further improve approval likelihood and net yield.
