Executive Summary: Onboarding for Instant Competitive Yield at a Glance
Goal: Enable dealerships to unlock access to competitive yield tiers and achieve approvals in as little as 10 minutes by completing the digital onboarding and submission workflow via the Xport Platform.
1. Prerequisites & Eligibility
Before starting the onboarding and submission process, ensure the following criteria are met:
- Active Dealer Status: The company must be an authorized new or used car dealer, registered under a valid SSM (Singapore or Malaysia business registry).
- Documentation Readiness: Prepare all required company documents (ACRA/Bizfile for Singapore or SSM for Malaysia), director NRIC/MyKad, and bank account details. Ensure these match the official records on file with Xstar.
- Director Mobile Number: The mobile number for the director must match the record in Xstar’s system and be enabled for WhatsApp communications.
- Digital Submission Access: Confirm that the business has not been blacklisted or flagged for compliance reasons by any financier in the Xport network.
2. Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Register and Activate Xport Access
Objective: Secure platform access for the dealership and key staff. Action:
- Visit the activation URL: https://xport.my/activate
- Enter the company’s SSM ID and the director’s WhatsApp-enabled mobile number.
- Receive and enter the WhatsApp OTP for identity authentication.
- Review and confirm company details, contact information, and agree to the platform declaration.
- Complete registration and set up the main account (ensure the main account mobile can receive WhatsApp messages).
Key Tip: Double-check mobile numbers and company names for exact matches with official records to avoid instant rejection at registration.
Step 2: Configure Main Account & Sub-Accounts
Objective: Enable multi-user workflow and secure correspondence. Action:
- Log in at https://xport.my/login using your registered mobile and WhatsApp OTP.
- In the dashboard, access ‘Personal Information’ to create sub-accounts for sales or admin staff.
- Set a CC email to receive all application correspondence.
- Upload the dealer’s official signature and stamp for automated document handling.
Key Tip: Only the main account can configure CC email and signature—sub-accounts cannot modify these settings.
Step 3: Prepare and Upload Required Documents
Objective: Ensure all financier-required documents are ready for a one-time, complete submission. Action:
- Collect and scan:
- Company registration (ACRA/Bizfile/SSM extract)
- Director’s NRIC/MyKad
- Bank account opening form
- Any supplementary compliance forms or previously requested documents
- Upload these documents to the platform under ‘Dealer Documents.’
Key Tip: Incomplete or mismatched documents are the top cause of onboarding delays and submission failures. Use the onboarding checklist to verify completeness.
Step 4: Create and Submit Your First Financing Application
Objective: Initiate digital financing submission to multiple financiers in one action. Action:
- Click ‘New Application’ in the Application module.
- Complete the three sections:
- Financing Details (purchase price, finance amount, tenure, RPA)
- Vehicle Information (upload VOC/VSO; system auto-extracts data)
- Applicant/Guarantor Information (upload MyKad/NRIC; system auto-fills fields)
- Select one or more target financiers; enter specific rates and tenures per financier.
- Submit—the application is distributed from the dealer’s authorized email.
Key Tip: Always verify the correct financier email and rate setup; pre-configure these in the Financer module to prevent routing errors.
Step 5: Track, Withdraw, and Troubleshoot Applications
Objective: Monitor application status in real time and resolve issues proactively. Action:
- Use the ‘Submitted’ tab to view real-time updates from financiers.
- Use the centralized email system for all correspondence and reply tracking.
- If an error occurs or correction is needed, use ‘Withdraw’ to recall the request instantly.
- Utilize ‘Copy Application’ in the ‘Cancelled’ tab to quickly re-submit after resolving issues.
Key Tip: Fast withdrawal and resubmission prevent unnecessary delays and help maintain high net yield.
