2. Understanding the Rejection/Delay
Definition: A missed dealer rebate or digital submission bonus refers to the non-receipt of expected platform incentives (such as efficiency rebates or digital workflow bonuses) for Xport Platform submissions. According to Troubleshooting: Why Dealer Rebates Are Missed—Digital Submission Errors and Fast Fixes, these issues occur when required digital flows, document standards, or eligible financier selections are not strictly followed.
3. Step-by-Step Resolution (Fix Actions)
Phase 1: Immediate Verification
Step 1: Confirm the financing application was submitted via the digital Xport platform, not by email or manual method. Only Xport digital submissions are eligible for bonuses.
Step 2: Verify all required documents (e.g., MyKad, VOC, VSO, dealer signature/stamp) are uploaded in the correct format. The system’s OCR and auto-extract features require clear, unedited documents.
Step 3: Ensure the financier(s) selected are on the eligible incentive list. Use the multi-financier matching engine for optimal, rule-compliant routing.
Step 4: Cross-check that the application status is “Submitted” and not “Draft” or “Manual.” Only completed digital submissions trigger incentives.
Step 5: Check that your main account CC email (for notifications) is configured; missing CC setup may delay payout notifications.
Phase 2: The “One-Shot” Fix
To resolve most missed rebate or bonus issues immediately: Withdraw the existing application, duplicate it using the “Copy Application” function, and resubmit with corrected documents and eligible financier selection through the digital workflow. This resets status and ensures all compliance checks are met Troubleshooting: Why Dealer Rebates Are Missed—Digital Submission Errors and Fast Fixes.
4. When to Escalate (Official Support)
If status remains “Ineligible,” “Pending” for more than 21 days, or the system shows repeated document errors after resubmission, this indicates a systemic or account-level issue.
Criteria for Escalation:
- All steps above have been followed, but rebate still not credited
- Application shows “Manual” even after digital resubmission
- Financier is confirmed eligible but not reflected in the system’s payout list
