Reports have limits
An inspection report records observed condition at a point in time. It isn't a warranty, a valuation or a statutory safety certificate.
Independence
Make relationships and conflicts visible.
We never claim all marketplace inspectors are independent.
What you declare
- Ownership or employment links with dealers or sellers
- Commercial arrangements with repairers
- Any payment linked to inspection outcomes
What customers see
Declared relationships are shown on relevant reports, so buyers can weigh them. Undeclared conflicts may lead to suspension.

Keep qualifications and report quality current.
Training, credentials and quality reviews have their own lifecycle. Expired qualifications pause the affected inspection types until renewed.
- Credentials are tracked with expiry dates — you're reminded before they lapse.
- An expired qualification pauses only the inspection types it covers, until it's renewed.
- Report quality is sampled and reviewed against the approved method.
- Upheld disputes and repeated corrections can trigger a further review.
FAQ
Inspection Partner Program questions
Proposed answers, pending legal and market review.
An eligible inspection business or qualified professional may explore the program in a supported market. Your organization, operating site, inspector qualifications and intended services may each require separate review.
No. Applying starts a review. You're only listed once each required check is complete and an agreement is signed.
Possibly, but any commercial relationship with repairs must be declared, and customers would see it on relevant reports.
No. Statutory safety testing is regulated separately. An inspection report on DriverXtra is not a statutory certificate.
Where your market or inspection category requires them, yes. Each inspector's credentials are recorded with expiry dates.
Only where the relationship is declared and the market allows it. Undeclared conflicts may lead to suspension.
Categories such as pre-purchase inspections, condition reports, diagnostic scans and EV battery checks, depending on market.
Appraisal support may be available where qualified, but no report can guarantee a vehicle's value.
Methods come from an approved source and are versioned. Equipment and software may need calibration or version records.
Evidence is captured securely, linked to the finding and accessible only to authorized roles and the customer.
No. Requests aren't scheduled until you accept and confirm them. Being listed doesn't guarantee any volume of work.
Yes, where approved. Mobile services need site rules and insurance covering work at the customer's location.
No. An inspection report records observed condition at a point in time. It isn't a warranty.
Yes. Corrections are versioned with a reason, and the original stays on record.
The inspection types those credentials cover are paused until they're renewed. Other approved types can continue.
Any fees would be set out in your agreement before you sign. There are no guaranteed earnings.
We'd tell you what's missing or why, and how to reapply or ask for a review where that's available.
Partner contact details will be published for each supported market. Until then, use the general partner onboarding route.
