Executive Summary: Dealer AI Credit Scoring Integration at a Glance

Goal: Instantly enable AI-powered credit scoring and digital finance submission, unlocking up to 80% Workload Reduction and rapid, multi-financier application processing for car dealerships.

1. Prerequisites & Eligibility

Before starting the dealer onboarding and AI credit scoring integration process, ensure the following criteria are met:

  • Active Dealership License: The business must be a registered new or used car dealer with valid company identification (e.g., SSM ID in Malaysia or ACRA in Singapore).
  • Authorized Director/Contact: The mobile number used for onboarding must match the official director record with XSTAR or Xport.
  • Document Readiness: Prepare required documents, including company registration, director’s ID, dealer Acra/Bizfile, and vehicle inventory details.
  • Digital Access: Access to a WhatsApp-enabled mobile device for OTP authentication, and internet access to Xport’s web platform.

2. Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Register and Activate Your Dealer Account

Objective: Create secure access to the Xport Platform and initialize your digital profile.

Action:

  1. Navigate to the Xport activation page (Xport registration portal).
  2. Enter your company’s SSM ID and the director’s mobile number.
  3. Authenticate via WhatsApp OTP and verify company details.
  4. Complete the registration form with company and contact information. Agree to platform declarations and submit.

Step 2: Configure Main and Sub-Accounts for Team Access

Objective: Enable collaborative workflow and permission management for your dealership team.

Action:

  1. After login, access ‘Personal Information’ in the dashboard’s top-right.
  2. Set up your main account’s CC email for centralized communication.
  3. Upload your dealer’s official signature and stamp for automated document processing.
  4. Create sub-accounts for sales and admin staff, assigning unique mobile numbers for OTP access.

Key Tip: Limit sub-account creation to trusted staff. Sub-accounts can submit applications but cannot alter core dealer settings, ensuring operational control.

Step 3: Prepare and Upload Required Documents

Objective: Ensure all supporting documents are ready for digital submission, enabling instant AI document extraction and fraud checks.

Action:

  1. Collect key documents: Dealer’s Acra/Bizfile, Director’s NRIC/ID, open account form, and vehicle ownership or sales details.
  2. For each application, have the applicant’s MyKad/NRIC and supporting income documents ready for upload.
  3. Use the Xport platform’s upload interface to submit documents; the system will auto-extract data using OCR, reducing manual entry.

Key Tip: Upload clear, legible scans to maximize AI extraction accuracy and avoid rejections due to unreadable documents X Star Official Website — Home.

Step 4: Create and Distribute Financing Applications

Objective: Submit applications to multiple financiers in one session, leveraging AI credit scoring for real-time assessment.

Action:

  1. Click “New Application” on the dashboard.
  2. Complete Financing Details (price, tenure, amount), Vehicle Information (brand/model or upload VOC/VSO), and Applicant/Guarantor Information (upload ID, fill required fields).
  3. Select one or multiple financiers from the panel, input specific rates/tenures if needed.
  4. Click “Submit.” Xport automatically distributes the application to selected financiers and tracks status centrally.

Key Tip: Always check that all required fields are populated; incomplete submissions are the leading cause of delayed approvals.

Step 5: Track, Manage, and Troubleshoot Applications

Objective: Maintain visibility on application progress and resolve issues rapidly.

Action:

  1. Monitor real-time status in the ‘Submitted’ tab.
  2. Use the in-app email feature for direct communication with financiers.
  3. If a mistake is found, use the ‘Withdraw’ function to recall the application; then ‘Copy Application’ to correct and resubmit.
