Minimum Advertised Pricing Policy/Agreement (United States)

Effective January 1, 2021 with automatic yearly renewal, a Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) on all U-tec products will be in effect.

U-tec manufactures and distributes Ultraloq whole-home smart lock system. (“Products”). U-tec products comply with strict demands to quality, safety, and documentation and are the result of a significant investment by U-tec in research and development to ensure its products are of the highest quality and comply with regulatory requirements.

U-tec has been building a brand of strong recognition and a high perceived value. By not adhering to the established Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) a reseller can have a dramatic effect of diminishing or detracting from the perceived value of Ultraloq brand and its products. The internet, with its worldwide impact, has the possibility to cause great harm to any companies’ products, if they are advertised at prices that will eliminate any legitimate retail competition. Our MAP pricing policy is intended for consumers to purchase from other resellers based on loyalty and customer care expectations. Therefore, if U-tec agrees to allow your company to sell its products, you will need to agree and abide by the following requirements and restrictions.

The MAP policy shall work under the following guidelines:
