Frequently asked questions
How do I get my mill or refinery verified?
Create a seller account, then upload five documents on the Verification page: company registration, MPOB licence (or regional equivalent), export licence, a Halal / RSPO / MSPO certificate and proof of capacity. Our team reviews them and activates your account. Your Verified badge appears once approved.
How do I publish a listing?
After approval, open My listings. Fill in the product, grade, FFA, moisture and impurities, iodine value, origin, available volume, MOQ, incoterm and (optionally) your price, then tap Publish listing. You can pause a listing or mark it sold out at any time.
How do I receive RFQs?
You do not need to search. When a verified buyer submits an RFQ that matches your active listings (product, MOQ, quality and certification), it appears under RFQs and you are notified.
How do I send a quote?
Open RFQs, enter your price per MT, volume, incoterm, validity date and shipment window, then tap Submit quote. You can update the quote until the buyer accepts it.
What happens when a buyer accepts my quote?
A deal room opens automatically at exactly your quoted price. Use it to chat with the buyer, issue the Proforma Invoice, upload the SPA, LC, COA and Bill of Lading, and update each stage through to shipment.
How will I be paid?
Payment terms are set by DX and chosen by the buyer on the RFQ, for example a TT deposit with the balance by Usance LC from an accepted bank. SBLC is not accepted. Payment moves bank to bank; confirm the payment instrument in the deal room before shipping.
Can an agent change my price?
No. Agents cannot see, edit or mark up quotes. Any agent commission is paid separately by DX and is never added to your price.
How is my star rating decided?
DX scores each seller from 1 to 5 stars against published criteria such as certificate compliance, export experience and on-time delivery. Keep your documents current and deliver on time to raise your rating.
Why can some visitors not see my company name?
Supplier names and contact details are shown only to verified accounts. This protects you from unverified enquiries.
Who can sell on DX?
Palm oil mills, refineries and palm oil packaging factories. Choose your facility type when you register; it appears on your Verified badge.
What is Seller Assurance?
Every seller commits to delivering 100% of the contracted quantity and quality. Seller/Buyer may optionally add EXIM Bank cover for a fee; ask our team in the deal room for the current premium.
Is there a registration fee for sellers?
Registration is USD 100 per year. During our launch period the first year is free: a coupon is applied automatically when you sign up.
Is insurance mandatory for sellers?
Yes. To guarantee delivery, every seller must hold delivery-guarantee insurance with EXIM Bank or another insurer approved by DX, and upload the certificate before activation.
How do I quote CFR or CIF?
When you quote, choose CFR or CIF and pick a freight rate from the verified forwarders listed for that destination. The freight (and cargo insurance for CIF) is added as a separate line; your product price stays exactly as you entered it.
How does DX keep out fake buyers and brokers?
Buyers must upload company registration, an import licence, a bank comfort letter or proof of funds, and a tax ID before they can raise an RFQ. Paid members and repeat buyers are flagged. Middlemen who collect offers to resell with a margin, and "buyers" who only want price lists, are rejected. You spend your time on buyers who can actually pay and take delivery.
Who can see my prices?
Your listing prices are shown only to verified buyers, and each quote is visible only to the buyer who asked for it. Other sellers and the public cannot see them. Buyers agree in our Terms not to share or misuse prices.
What does DX do automatically?
DX expires old RFQs and quotes, reminds you before a priority RFQ is due, pauses listings when their price validity date has passed, sends renewal reminders, and routes unanswered RFQs to Drixem Group companies when the buyer asked for it. Staff step in only for approvals, payment checks and enquiries.
Why was my listing paused?
Listings are paused automatically once the "price valid until" date has passed, so that buyers never see an out-of-date price. Update the price and date, then set the listing back to Active.
How do I contact DX?
Send an enquiry from the Enquiries page. Every message and reply stays in your history so nothing gets lost.
