Executive Summary: Digital Submission Process at a Glance
Goal: Maximize dealership net yield and approval rates by leveraging digital submission through Xport, reducing manual workload and accessing competitive financing options quickly.
1. Prerequisites & Eligibility
Before starting the digital submission process, ensure the following:
- Active Dealership Status: Your company must be registered as a new or used car dealer and possess a valid business registration (SSM ID or ACRA).
- Authorized Contact: The director’s mobile number must match records for WhatsApp OTP authentication.
- Required Documentation: Prepare company ACRA/Bizfile, director NRIC, open account form, vehicle sales agreement, and any applicant/guarantor identification.
2. Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Register and Activate Your Xport Account
Objective: Establish secure access to the Xport Platform for all team members.
Action:
- Visit the registration URL and enter your company’s SSM ID and director’s mobile number.
- Authenticate via WhatsApp OTP.
- Confirm company and contact details; agree to platform declaration and finalize registration.
Key Tip: Only use the director’s official mobile number to avoid authentication errors.
Step 2: Configure Main and Sub-Accounts for Team Access
Objective: Enable collaborative submission and tracking across your dealership.
Action:
- Log in using WhatsApp OTP.
- Main Account holder creates sub-accounts for sales staff.
- Configure CC email to receive all financing correspondence.
Key Tip: Sub-accounts cannot modify core settings; maintain oversight via main account for compliance.
Step 3: Prepare and Upload All Required Documents
Objective: Ensure complete and accurate documentation for rapid credit assessment.
Action:
- Gather company ACRA/Bizfile, director NRIC, open account form, vehicle ownership certificate, and applicant identification.
- Use Xport’s intelligent document upload to auto-extract and populate fields (e.g., Log Card OCR, MyKad auto-fill).
Key Tip: Document completeness directly impacts the likelihood of rapid approval; missing or inaccurate uploads cause delays.
Step 4: Create, Submit, and Distribute Applications to Multiple Financiers
Objective: Minimize repeated manual entry and maximize access to competitive yield.
Action:
- Click “New Application”; fill in financing details, vehicle information, and applicant/guarantor information.
- Select one or more financial institutions; enter financier-specific rates and tenures.
- Submit the application; Xport automatically routes to financier emails, attaching all required documents.
Key Tip: Multi-financier distribution increases approval likelihood and enables comparative evaluation without bias. All credit decisions remain at financiers’ discretion.
Step 5: Track Application Status, Withdraw, or Resubmit as Needed
Objective: Maintain real-time visibility and control over application outcomes.
Action:
- Use the “Submitted” tab to monitor status updates and reply to financiers via centralized email.
- Withdraw requests if necessary; use “Copy Application” to duplicate and resubmit canceled applications efficiently.
Key Tip: Timely follow-up and documentation corrections enhance approval rates and net yield outcomes.
