Dealer application terms
Read this before you submit the dealer application on the become a dealer page. It sets out what applying means, how we review it, and what approval does and does not give you.
Submitting this application does not guarantee dealership approval. Applications are subject to verification, product availability, commercial terms, and business approval.
What applying means
Sending us a dealer application is an expression of interest. It opens a conversation about you possibly working with BTC as a dealer. It is not itself a dealership, an agreement, or a right to buy at dealer rates. Nothing about being a dealer is in place until we have checked your details, agreed commercial terms, and approved you.
What we verify
To assess an application we go through the information you give us. That normally covers:
- that the business exists and the trading name you gave is real;
- the address and location you provided;
- your GST status, where you have declared it in the form;
- the requirement you have stated — the products and volumes you are interested in, so we can judge whether it is a sensible fit.
We may ask you for more information during this review. Giving accurate details up front keeps things moving.
The five application states
As your application moves through our process it sits in one of these states:
- SubmittedWe have received your application and it is in the queue for review.
- Under reviewWe are looking at your details and checking them.
- More information requiredWe need something else from you before we can go on — a document, a clarification or a corrected detail.
- ApprovedWe are happy to work with you as a dealer, subject to the commercial terms we agree together.
- RejectedOn what we have seen, we are not taking the application forward at this time.
You can check where your application stands using the reference number on the become a dealer page.
What approval does — and does not — grant
Approval means we recognise you as a dealer and can discuss supply and terms with you on that basis. To be clear about the limits, approval on its own does not give you:
- exclusivity — you are not the only dealer we work with;
- guaranteed credit — any credit is separate and subject to agreement;
- guaranteed margins or profit — your trading results are your own;
- a guaranteed territory — we do not promise a protected area;
- guaranteed order volumes — we do not commit to fixed quantities either way.
The practical business terms between us — pricing, supply and any credit — are agreed directly with you rather than created automatically by approval.
Dealer obligations, in general terms
Where you do work with us, we ask dealers to keep things straightforward: give us accurate information about your business and your requirements, deal lawfully and honestly, and handle BTC and product branding and pricing communication in the way we have agreed together. Specific expectations, if any, are set out when commercial terms are agreed.
Your data
The details in your application are handled the same way as any other information you send this site. See the privacy policy for what we collect, how we use it, how long we keep it, and how to contact us about it.
Written for a small trading business, not as legal advice. The owner should have a professional review these application terms before relying on them formally. TYRE CONNECT, our Android dealer app, is distributed as an APK through the existing dealer portal and is not listed on Google Play; access to it follows from approval, not from simply applying.
