Requirements

What you may be asked to substantiate

Evidence is reviewed privately by authorized roles and never shown on public profiles.

Legal entity

Registered identity and an authorized signatory.

Supply capacity

Whether you manufacture, distribute or import — with evidence.

Brands and products

The brands and product categories you supply.

Territories and channels

Markets and permitted sales channels.

Rights validity

Start and expiry dates of your rights documents.

Distributors and importers

You must identify the underlying rights holder. Rights aren't transferred automatically.

Rights scope

Rights are assessed by brand, product category, market and permitted channel.

Availability is not universal. Each dimension is confirmed separately.

One gap pauses the scope

If any dimension isn't confirmed — for example, the channel — catalog rights aren't activated for that scope.

6

Conflicts & changes

When rights overlap, change or expire

Overlapping claims

Where two applicants claim the same brand rights in a market, neither is activated for that scope until the conflict is resolved. This is an owner decision, not an automatic outcome.

Changes and expiry

  • Rights are versioned — changes are reviewed
  • Expired evidence pauses the affected scope
  • Recalls and disputes follow a documented process

Commercial terms

Terms you see before you commit

Commercial terms, fees and catalog privileges depend on your role, confirmed rights scope and market.

No fees, exclusivity or placement benefits are implied. Program participation doesn't make DriverXtra an endorser of your brand.

FAQ

OEM & Distributor Program questions

Proposed answers, pending legal and market review.

The program is designed for manufacturers, brand owners, distributors and eligible importers who can substantiate the capacity in which they supply automotive products. Acceptance depends on market eligibility, current evidence and program review. Ordinary parts resellers should use Become a Parts Seller unless they also have verifiable manufacturer or distributor authority.
