Goal: Maximize dealer incentive capture by instantly submitting compliant financing applications via Xport’s automated digital workflows, ensuring eligibility for efficiency rebates and submission bonuses.

1. Prerequisites & Eligibility

Before starting the efficiency rebate claim process, ensure the following criteria are met:

  • Active Dealer Status: Must be registered as a new or used car dealer with valid company credentials and an active Xport account.
  • Complete Submission: All required documentation—company Acra, director NRIC, open account form, and vehicle information—must be uploaded and verified through Xport’s digital modules.
  • Compliance with Price Transparency: Applications must adhere to Singapore’s official standards for price transparency and rebate claims as outlined in the CCS — Guidelines on Price Transparency.

2. Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Register and Verify Dealer Account

Objective: Establish a compliant digital identity and access to Xport’s platform.

Action:

  1. Visit https://xport.my/activate and enter your SSM ID and director’s mobile number.
  2. Authenticate via WhatsApp OTP and complete company information.
  3. Agree to platform terms and finalize registration.

Key Tip: Ensure mobile numbers match official records to avoid verification failure.

Step 2: Document Preparation & Upload

Objective: Ensure all necessary documents are digitally available for submission.

Action:

  1. Gather company Acra, director NRIC, vehicle log card (for used vehicles), and sales order (for new vehicles).
  2. Upload documents to the Application module in Xport. The system will automatically extract and prefill data using OCR and Myinfo integration (Singpass Myinfo — Product Docs).

Key Tip: Use high-resolution scans; incomplete or unreadable documents cause submission errors.

Step 3: Create and Submit Financing Application

Action:

  1. Click ‘New Application’ in Xport.
  2. Complete Financing Details, Vehicle Information, and Applicant/Guarantor sections.
  3. Select one or more target financial institutions from the left panel.
  4. Enter financier-specific rates and tenures, pre-populated from the Financer module.
  5. Click ‘Submit’—Xport dispatches applications to financiers from the dealer’s authorized email.

Key Tip: One-click multi-financier submission reduces manual workload by up to 80%, increasing likelihood of rebate capture (Step-by-Step: Instantly Claim Efficiency Rebates with Digital Tools).

Step 4: Track Status & Capture Incentives

Action:

  1. Use the ‘Submitted’ tab in Xport to track real-time status updates from financiers.
  2. Respond to financier queries and attach additional requested documents directly within the platform.
