Before starting the digital submission process using XSTAR’s Xport platform, ensure the following:

  • Registered Dealership: The company must have a valid business registration (e.g., SSM ID for Malaysia) and an authorized director’s mobile number on record.
  • Digital Access: The main contact must have access to WhatsApp for authentication and be able to receive one-time passwords (OTP).
  • Document Readiness: Prepare digital copies of required documents: Vehicle Ownership Certificate (VOC) for used cars, Vehicle Sales Order (VSO) for new cars, and personal identification (MyKad or equivalent).
  • Financier Information: List of target financial institutions and their contact emails for application distribution.

2. Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Register and Activate Dealer Access {#step-1}

Objective: Secure authenticated access to XSTAR’s Xport platform, enabling digital submissions.

Step 5: Monitor Application Status and Follow Up {#step-5}

Objective: Keep all stakeholders informed and maximize conversion speed.

Action:

  1. Use the ‘Submitted’ tab to track real-time responses from each financier.
  2. Communicate with lenders directly within the application detail view.
