A controlled ladder before vehicle control.
Starter-inhibit is not a shortcut. It is a logged, reversible control that belongs behind a signed agreement, payment-default rules, reminders, grace handling, and clear records.
Allowed use
Payment default under an agreement.
The action must be supported by the signed terms and the configured collection rules.
Not allowed
Stopping a moving vehicle.
The system does not interrupt a running vehicle. Starter control applies only at the safe ignition condition.
Required
Clear records before action.
Messages, payments, grace status, commands, retries, and outcomes remain available for review.
Every step is recorded.
1. Due
A payment becomes due and the person paying receives clear payment instructions.
2. Overdue
The total unpaid amount is communicated clearly.
3. Grace
The agreed grace period gives time before further action.
4. Control
If allowed, a vehicle switch-off request is sent and recorded.
5. Restore
A confirmed payment can restore the vehicle where the agreement allows it.
Responsible control needs clear roles.
Customer
Keeps agreements, disclosures, contact details, and authorization rules accurate.
Person paying
Pays via Paybill using the vehicle registration as the account number and contacts the owner when a dispute exists.
