Compliance is the job nobody does until the inspector calls

The dealer register is supposed to be written up within a set time of every car coming in or going out. Statutory warranty depends on the car’s age and kilometres. Cooling-off rules depend on the state. Miss one and it’s your licence.

Most yards keep it all in a binder that gets filled in on a Friday afternoon, if at all.

How it works

  1. 1

    Trade as normal

    Every buy, consignment and sale writes itself to the electronic dealer register from your stock movements.

  2. 2

    Documents fill themselves

    Contracts carry the right statutory warranty class, consumer guarantee wording and cooling-off notices. Transfer forms are pre-filled.

  3. 3

    Export for the audit

    PPSR certificates, odometer, written-off and stolen checks and the full audit trail are kept per car, ready to export.

The dealer register writes itself

The electronic dealer register, or stock book, fills from your stock movements: every car in, every car out, with the purchase or consignment details. Register entries for cars you buy are marked as dealer purchases.

  • Register auto-filled from stock movements
  • Register entries within the deadline, timed
  • Full audit trail on every change

Dealer stock register rules by state

The right warranty and wording on every contract

The statutory warranty class is worked out from the car’s age and kilometres and printed on the contract of sale. Consumer guarantee wording under the ACL goes on sale documents, and cooling-off notices and waivers are added where required.

  • Statutory warranty class auto-calculated and printed
  • ACL consumer guarantee wording
  • Cooling-off notices and waivers
  • Stamp duty calculator per state

Statutory warranty by state

Checks, licences and privacy kept on file

Every car keeps its PPSR certificate from the buy and the sale, plus odometer, written-off and stolen checks. Dealer licences and salesperson registrations are tracked with expiry alerts, and privacy and AML/CTF readiness are built into the workflow.

  • PPSR certificate stored on every car
  • Licence tracking with expiry alerts
  • Privacy: consent capture, ID retention rules, data deletion
  • AML/CTF readiness: cash thresholds and ID checks

Questions dealers ask

What does car dealer compliance software do?

It keeps the records a licensed dealer must hold, such as the dealer register, contracts with the right warranty and consumer wording, PPSR and odometer checks, and an audit trail, and fills them from your normal stock and sales work.

Which states are covered?

QLD paperwork is live now. NSW and VIC compliance packs (register and contracts) are next. Our state guides cover the rules in every state and territory.

Does it work out the statutory warranty?

Yes. The class is calculated from the car’s age and kilometres and printed on the contract of sale.

Does it keep my trust account compliant in Queensland?

Yes. Each consignor has a ledger with no deletes, deadline timers run on banking, the register and seller payments, only the licensee can withdraw, and there is an auditor export.

Is compliance an extra cost?

No. It’s in every plan: Starter $99, Yard $299, Pro $549 and Dealer Group $849 a month, plus GST. PPSR checks are $4 each beyond your plan’s allowance.
