FlexPath Partner Enablement Guide: Onboarding and Launch Requirements
A reference for partners covering the FlexPath DXP onboarding to launch workflow.
FlexPath DXP VeriQual™ Introduction
VeriQual™ is an identity-first pre-qualification platform that transforms dealer websites into verified-credit shopping experiences — connecting identity-verified shoppers to real vehicles, real lenders, and real payments seamlessly within the dealer's SRP and VDP experience. Unlike traditional pre-qualification widgets, FlexPath operates as a true Digital Experience Platform (DXP), replacing anonymous form fills and estimated payments with verified, credit-matched buying intent.
This article outlines the end-to-end onboarding to launch process.
Onboarding Workflow at a Glance
The FlexPath DXP partner onboarding process follows five sequential stages:
- Contract — Signed dealer agreement is executed.
- Setup Form — Completed setup intake form is submitted.
- Integration Prep — Technical integration requirements are gathered and confirmed.
- Web + Credit Setup — Website integration and credit provider credentialing are configured.
- Launch — Service goes live once all setup items are complete.
Average time to launch: 5–7 business days once all required setup items have been received. The client's responsiveness will drive the overall timeline.
Onboarding Prerequisites
Onboarding cannot begin until the following requirements are completed:
- Executed dealer agreement
- Completed onboarding intake form
Partner Onboarding Accountability
A clear division of responsibilities ensures an efficient and timely launch.
| Role | Responsibility |
|---|---|
| Partner (Agent/Reseller) | Assists the Implementation team with dealer communication, responsiveness, and document collection to help prevent onboarding delays through timely dealer follow-up. |
| Dealer | Responsible for timely completion of setup requirements and credit credentialing. |
| FlexPath DXP | Responsible for implementation, configuration, and platform activation once all required inputs are received. |
Important: Delays in dealer responsiveness may impact onboarding timelines, go-live scheduling, and partner commission timing.
What Happens After Dealer Enrollment
Once the dealer agreement is executed, FlexPath initiates the onboarding process and coordinates launch readiness with all parties.
Dealer Welcome & Onboarding Initiation
A Welcome Email is sent to the dealer outlining:
- Required onboarding action items
- Setup and credentialing requirements
- Implementation timelines and next steps
- Key contacts and launch coordination details
Partner / Reseller Responsibilities
The partner (agent or reseller) is expected to assist the Implementation team by:- Supporting dealer responsiveness and follow-up
- Helping coordinate required onboarding documentation
- Assisting with timeline management to support an on-time launch

- Existing clients complete the Existing 700 Client DocuSign.

CRM and Lead Source Setup Best Practices
To ensure leads are properly captured and tracked post-launch, the following CRM configurations should be completed during setup:
- Configure FlexPath as a lead source in the dealer's CRM.
- Leads are delivered from leads@adf.flexpathdxp.com.
- ADF leads use the provider ID FPDXP.
Periodically reconcile lead counts to ensure accuracy. Note that CRMs may source leads based on the original engagement date, which can result in what appear to be duplicate entries — FlexPath leads include more detailed engagement and qualification data to support downstream follow-up.
Portal Access and User Setup
The FlexPath Portal provides dealers and partners with access to lead data, reporting, and account management. Portal access uses secure, email-based authentication — no usernames or passwords are required.
To add a new user:
- Log in to the FlexPath Portal.
- Navigate to the Users tab.
- Select Create New and enter the user's name, email, phone number, and profile restrictions and permissions.
Users must be explicitly granted permission to view soft pull data. Regularly review user access to ensure only active team members can view lead information.
Lead Access Permission Levels
- Full Credit Bureau Data: Access to all available lead details, including full credit bureau data.
- Consumer PII: Access to consumer personal information, qualification score, and full prequalification details (excluding full credit bureau data).
- General Lead Information: Access to city, state, ZIP, qualification score, and limited financing details.
- Lead Reporting & Summary Data: Access to aggregated reports and summary data only; no individual lead details.
Administrative Privileges
- Dealer Groups: May manage users for Dealer Groups and associated Rooftops.
- Dealer Rooftops: May manage users for their specific Rooftop only.
Integration and Deployment Best Practices
To maximize the value of the FlexPath platform after launch, partners and dealers should follow these deployment guidelines:
- Deploy FlexPath across multiple engagement channels, including QR-enabled prequalification, direct mail campaigns, in-store promotions, and on-the-lot interactions.
- Streamline overlapping tools on the dealer website to maintain a clean user experience and avoid redundant calls to action.
- Incorporate VeriQual™ into the dealer's advertising strategy to maximize shopper engagement.
- Regularly review and update autoresponders, campaigns, and marketing templates to ensure consistent messaging across all platforms.
- Confirm all relevant team members have active portal logins with appropriate access levels.
- Ensure the team understands VeriQual™ data points and how to use them when following up with credit-qualified leads.
