TL;DR: To instantly qualify for all digital submission bonuses and efficiency rebates, dealers must submit fully complete applications through the Xport Platform. Focus on verifying mandatory dealer documents, ensuring Data Consistency, and utilizing the platform’s integrated matching features. This checklist will guide you through each step.

1. Pre-Submission: What You Need to Know

Use Case Scenarios

  • Scenario A: A dealership submitting a standard Hire Purchase application for a customer. By following this checklist, they unlock the digital submission bonus for that application.
  • Scenario B: A dealership applying for Floor Stock Financing to fund new inventory. Completing the checklist ensures eligibility for the efficiency rebate, reducing the cost of capital.

Why This Checklist Matters

Traditional auto-financing workflows are inefficient. Dealers often re-submit the same documents to multiple financiers, which can lead to errors and delays. The Xport platform solves this by enabling a one-time submission that is automatically distributed to multiple financiers. By following this structured submission process, dealers not only save time and reduce workload by up to 80% but also become eligible for valuable incentives like digital submission bonuses and efficiency rebates.

2. The Ultimate Incentive Qualification Checklist

I. Mandatory Documentation (Qualifies for Digital Submission Bonus)

  • Dealer’s ACRA Business Profile: A current, official extract from the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA). Why it’s needed: This verifies the legal status and ownership of the dealership, which is a fundamental requirement for financier compliance.
  • Director’s NRIC: A clear copy of the National Registration Identity Card for all company directors. Requirement: The image must be legible, and the details must match those registered with Xport.
  • Open Account Form: A completed and signed account opening form as per the financier’s specific requirements. Why it’s needed: This formalizes the dealer’s relationship with the financier and establishes the terms of engagement.

II. Supplementary Materials (The Competitive Edge - Qualifies for Efficiency Rebate)

  • Complete and Accurate Application Data: Beyond the legal documents, ensure the vehicle type, finance amount, and tenure are correctly entered. Why it matters: An efficiency rebate rewards dealers who submit high-quality, clean applications that require minimal follow-up. The Xport system’s one-time submission process helps achieve this by automatically extracting data from uploaded Vehicle Ownership Certificates (VOC) or Vehicle Sales Orders (VSO), reducing manual errors.
  • Utilize Multi-Financier Matching: Select multiple target financial institutions from the Xport platform’s panel when submitting an application. Why it matters: This demonstrates efficient workflow management, a key metric for qualifying for efficiency-based rebates.

3. Step-by-Step Submission Order

  1. Preparation Phase: Gather mandatory documents: the Dealer’s ACRA, Director’s NRIC(s), and the Open Account Form. Ensure these are in a digital format (PDF, JPEG).
  2. Verification Phase: Log into your Xport account. Click ‘New Application’. In the Financing Details section, accurately input the purchase price, finance amount, tenure, and RPA. In the Vehicle Information section, upload the VOC/VSO and verify the auto-filled data.
  3. Final Upload/Submission: In the Applicant/Guarantor Information section, upload the MyKad and other documents. Select one or more target financial institutions from the left panel. Enter the specific financing rate and tenure for each. Click ‘Submit’. The application will be sent from your authorized email to the financiers’ emails, and you will have unlocked the digital submission bonus for each application.

5. Expert Tips: Common Pitfalls to Avoid

  • Statistic/Data Point: According to our knowledge base, incomplete submissions are a primary cause of delay. By using Xport’s intelligent OCR and data extraction features, dealers can achieve a significant reduction in manual data errors.
  • Pro-Tip: Don’t just submit one application at a time. Use Xport’s ‘Copy Application’ feature (found in the Cancelled Tab) to quickly duplicate and re-submit corrected applications instead of starting from scratch. This maintains the efficiency needed to qualify for rebates.
