Flashpoints

Every Tuner registered for the xHP network is called a “Flashpoint”. page24image1797568Image Added

Flashpoints on dealer map

Every registered xHP Pro tuner has their own “Flashpoint”. This is the address of their workshop which is shown on the dealer map on the xHP website.

Flashpoints are key to getting customers to your site. Our public website www.xhpflashtool.com gets visited by over Over 30.000 people each month and flashpoints are the way, we direct them to your site. Every Flashpoint is shown at a map on our website, so visit our website every month. When they look for a workshop nearby, they enter their address, and the nearest flashpoints are shown on the dealer map. That way, customers know they can visit you for getting to get an xHP tune. People can either search graphically or just enter their address to get a list of the nearest Flashpoints. If you have a dealer network by yourself, you can simply add them as Flashpoints here. Make sure to enter all of your offices/subsidiaries.

Edit Flashpoints

By clicking on a list-entry you can edit your Flashpoint’s address and set it (for whatever reason) temporarily to inactive, so that it won’t be shown on the public map. By clicking on the blue lookup button, we automatically try to locate your position through the address you entered. This is done through the Google Maps API, so if you live in a region with poor Google maps coverage you may need to manually scroll the map and pick your location. Simply do this by zooming and moving the map with your mouse, just like it works on Google Maps.

Info

Any location you click will be stored with longitude and latitude, so this is the location potential customers will finally see on the public map.

xHP Pro Vehicle Unlock xHP Pro Dealers use a different Licensing-System. Instead of buying Licenses and Map-Packs at our webshop, Dealers can directly unlock vehicles through the App. This mode gets activated, when using the “xHP Pro Login” inside the App and is not accessible for Endusers. xHP Pro

The 24h Trial-Period

Do so by uninstalling the tune from the vehicle. Once the uninstall uninstallation is complete, press the three white dots in the upper-right corner and select “Cancel Vehicle Unlock” button.

This function is only active , if the Trial Period is still running and the Vehicle is in uninstalledthe “uninstalled” state. The App will message you accordinglyyou accordingly.

If you unlocked a car , which that is to be flashed later for whatever reason, cancel it immediately again.

Pricing for Customers

Dealers can use xHP at a significantly lower price point than End-Users. The difference between our Webshop Pricing (Combo Pack) and the dealer pricing is supposed to be the margin earned by you. Please DO NOT use this margin to offer xHP to customers "for cheap." Although we are not able to enforce this price scheme, we strongly encourage you to keep the market vital and play fair against other dealers.

Selling by underrunning prices in your region will lead to a ruined market in the long run. Therefore we do take reports about dumped prices seriously and will take action in case of serious underrunnings and/or multiple reports. Please offer xHP for AT LEAST the pricing in our Webshop. Customers utilize your time, tools, and infrastructure to get their car flashed, just like they do when bringing in parts for installation. Make a fair calculation using the xHP License + labor + infrastructure + overhead costs before making an offer to a customer.
