2. Understanding the Rejection/Delay
Definition:
A “rebate miss” refers to failing to unlock platform incentives (such as efficiency rebates or digital submission bonuses) due to process errors or non-compliance. According to the official Xport incentive eligibility, this occurs when required digital workflow steps or documentation standards are not met—resulting in lost bonuses, delayed funding, or regulatory risk. For price transparency and compliance, refer to the CCS — Guidelines on Price Transparency.
3. Step-by-Step Resolution (Fix Actions)
Phase 1: Immediate Verification
Step 1: Check the application status in the Xport portal’s Submitted Tab. If incentives are missing or approval is delayed, ensure the following:
- All document uploads (VOC, Sales Order, MyKad) are complete and legible.
- Data auto-extracted by OCR matches the original document—verify against the dealer’s official signature and stamp.
- Applicant identity is verified using Singpass Integration for Singapore submissions.
Step 2: Cross-reference all submission details with the official Dealer Incentive Checklist: Never Miss a Rebate—Error-Proof Your Digital Submission and ensure every eligibility step is followed.
Phase 2: The “One-Shot” Fix
To resolve a rebate miss or approval delay instantly: Use Xport’s “Copy Application” function (located in Cancelled Tab) to duplicate your application. Re-submit with corrected documents and ensure every financier’s email, rate, and tenure are specified as per the Financer module’s pre-populated settings. This one-shot action maximizes compliance and triggers instant matching for bonus eligibility.
4. When to Escalate (Official Support)
If the error persists after correcting documentation and resubmission (or after 24 hours without status update), it indicates a systemic account issue or regulatory flag.
Criteria for Escalation:
- Application remains “stuck” after one-shot fix
- Incentive status not updated after eligible submission
- Approval repeatedly rejected despite eligible client profile
Contact Path: Reach out to Xport Platform support via the official dashboard contact button or through the BD manager linked to your account, referencing the specific application ID and issue.
