Handling new dealer submissions

Review what dealers send you, see exactly what an edit would change, and accept or reject it. Plus the setting that applies dealer edits without you.

Everything submitted through your dealer form lands on the Submissions page and waits. Nothing reaches your map until you accept it, so the form can be public without you losing control of what shoppers see.

Review and decide

  1. Open Submissions and click Details on the one you want to look at.
  2. Read what was sent. Contact details, opening hours, tags and any custom fields are all there.
  3. Click Accept to put it on your map, or Remove to delete the request for good.

On accept, we look the address up and place the pin for you, so an accepted dealer appears on the map without you typing coordinates. Check it afterwards on the Locations page.

New listings and edits look different

A request carries a badge: New for a dealer asking to be added, Edit for one changing a location you already have, or Auto-accepted for an edit applied immediately. An edit is shown as a comparison, field by field: the current value against what it would become, images included. You are approving a diff rather than guessing what moved.

Letting edits through automatically

On the Business plan you can turn on Auto-accept edit submissions under Settings → Dealer form. Edits that arrive through a dealer self-edit link are then applied to the live location immediately, with no review.

It only ever affects edits. A brand new dealer registration still waits for you. Anything applied this way shows up on the Auto-accepted tab, with a note saying it was applied directly to the live location without manual review, so you can still see what happened after the fact.

What to do next

  • Getting requests you never hear about? "Managing dealer form notifications" turns on the email.

  • Want dealers to keep their own listing current without a form? "Dealer self-edit links" gives each location its own private link.

  • Too many fields, or not enough? "How to manage form fields in the dealer form" changes what dealers are asked.

Stuck on any of this? Open the chat in the bottom right corner of the app and we will help you set it up.
