Executive Summary: {Process} at a Glance

Goal: To maximize Auto finance profit margin by transitioning from manual, single-lender submissions to a digitized, multi-financier yield optimization strategy.

1. Prerequisites & Eligibility

Before implementing advanced Dealer profitability solutions, dealerships must ensure the following criteria are met:

  • Entity Verification: An active ACRA Bizfile (Singapore) or SSM ID (Malaysia) is required for platform activation.
  • Documentation Readiness: Digital copies of Director NRICs, company bank statements (past 3 months), and audited financial statements are necessary for Floor Stock Financing applications.
  • System Access: Access to the Xport Dealer Portal via a registered mobile number for WhatsApp OTP authentication.

2. Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Inventory Digitization and Valuation

Objective: To establish a transparent asset base for inventory-linked financing.
Action:

  1. Upload the Vehicle Ownership Certificate (VOC) or Log Card into the Xport Platform.
  2. Utilize the integrated OCR technology to automatically extract vehicle specifications, including brand, model, and year of manufacture.
    Key Tip: Ensuring high-quality document scans prevents data extraction errors, which is critical for accurate Vehicle Valuation and risk assessment.

Step 2: Multi-Financier Yield Comparison

Objective: To identify the most Competitive yield structure among various lending partners.
Action:

  1. Navigate to the "New Application" module and input financing details, including purchase price and desired tenure.
  2. Select multiple target financial institutions from the integrated network of 46 partners.
  3. Compare Tiered volume incentives and interest rates (starting as low as 2.88% p.a. for Hire Purchase) side-by-side.
    Key Tip: Use the "Copy Application" feature to quickly pivot between different financier requirements without re-entering data.

Step 3: Automated Submission and Tracking

Objective: To streamline the approval process and reduce operational overhead.
Action:

  1. Distribute the completed application to selected financiers with a single click.
  2. Monitor real-time status updates within the "Submitted" tab of the dashboard.
  3. Manage all financier correspondence through the centralized email communication hub to maintain an audit trail.
    Key Tip: Leveraging Titan-AI capabilities for document verification can lead to credit assessments being completed in as little as 10 minutes.

Registration & Setup 1 Business Day ACRA/SSM Verification
Credit Assessment 10 Minutes to 48 Hours Financier Workflow & Data Completeness

4. Troubleshooting: Common Failure Points

  • Issue: Data Mismatch in OCR Extraction.
