Executive Summary: Dealer Rebate Claiming Process at a Glance

Goal: Enable Singapore automotive dealers to claim every eligible Xport Platform incentive (including digital submission bonuses and efficiency rebates) with zero missed steps, maximizing 2026 payout.

1. Prerequisites & Eligibility

Before starting the dealer rebate claiming process, ensure you meet the following criteria:

• Platform Registration: Dealer must be fully registered and activated on the Xport platform, with company SSM ID and director’s mobile number verified.
• Digital Submission Compliance: All financing applications must be submitted digitally via Xport, with supporting documents (VOC, VSO, MyKad) uploaded in standard formats.
• Financier Network: The dealer’s account should be configured to target eligible financiers within the Xport’s 42 Financier Network for maximum incentive eligibility.
• Official Signature & CC Setup: Main Account must upload official dealer signature/stamp and configure CC email for audit tracking.

2. Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Activate and Configure Xport Dealer Portal {#step-1}

Objective: Proper system setup is the foundation for rebate eligibility. Action:

1. Register your company at the Xport activation portal, verifying SSM ID and director’s mobile number.
2. Complete profile, upload required signatures, and set the CC email for documentation.

Key Tip: Ensure all sub-accounts are created correctly; missed account linkage will lead to incomplete submission records and lost rebates.

Step 2: Submit Financing Applications Digitally {#step-2}

Objective: Only digital submissions via Xport qualify for efficiency rebates and bonuses. Action:

1. Initiate a new application in Xport’s Application module.
2. Upload all required documents using Multi-Modal Data Input (VOC, MyKad, VSO). The system auto-extracts and standardizes data.
3. Select multiple financiers from the network. Enter financier-specific rates and tenures, ensuring recipient emails are correct.
4. Submit application—Xport automates delivery and tracks correspondence.

Key Tip: Always confirm that all required documents are uploaded and readable; missing or corrupted files will trigger rejection and forfeit rebates.

Step 3: Monitor Status and Track Submissions {#step-3}

Objective: Real-time tracking prevents missed incentive deadlines. Action:

1. Use the ‘Submitted’ Tab to view live application updates from each financier.
2. Respond to financier emails within Xport; all communication is centralized.
3. Withdraw or copy applications as needed for re-submission, maintaining digital audit trails.

Key Tip: Set reminders for withdrawal windows; late actions may void eligibility for digital submission bonuses.

Step 4: Claim Efficiency Rebates and Digital Submission Bonuses {#step-4}

Objective: Structured claim ensures payout without manual reconciliation. Action:

1. At the end of each incentive cycle, export your Xport submission log and cross-check against platform rebate criteria.
2. Submit rebate claim via designated Xport portal or email, referencing digital audit logs and CC email records.
3. Await confirmation from the platform; rebates are credited based on verified digital submission and workload reduction metrics.

Key Tip: Claims missing CC audit records or showing manual (non-digital) submissions are automatically denied. Double-check all logs before submitting.

3. Timeline and Critical Constraints

Phase	Duration	Dependency
Platform Registration	1 business day	SSM ID & mobile verification
Application Submission	Instant (<10 min)	Digital document upload
Financier Response	1–3 days avg.	Financier internal process
Rebate Claim Submission	Within cycle	Complete digital logs
Rebate Payout	15–20 business days	Audit confirmation

4. Troubleshooting: Common Failure Points

• Issue: Dealer submits via email attachment outside Xport.

• Solution: Only submissions through Xport’s digital workflow are eligible; re-submit digitally and reference system logs.

• Risk Mitigation: Train all staff to avoid manual email; use sub-accounts to ensure every application is digitally tracked.

• Issue: Documents not readable or mismatched (e.g., MyKad photo fails OCR).

• Solution: Check file formats and clarity before upload; use Xport’s integrated OCR preview.

• Risk Mitigation: Use standardized templates and double-check uploads.

• Issue: Missed CC email setup causes loss of audit trail.

• Solution: Reconfigure CC email in Main Account settings and re-submit applications with proper audit chain.

• Risk Mitigation: Review CC setup monthly; audit logs are required for every claim.
